1.) Over time, countries throughout Europe made mutual defense agreements that would pull them into battle. Thus, if one country was attacked, allied countries were bound to defend them. when germany attacked them they banded together and defended there friends.
1. The Nazis started invading and taking over places like Rhineland, Austria, and Czechoslovakia. Then he decided to take back the land of Poland that was taken from Germany after WW1. Also, the nonaggression pact added an alliance for Germany by allying with Russia. Eventually the Nazis would use Poland as a closer link to invading France.
1) Germany used "lightning war" on Poland. They caught them by surprise making them able to overcome Poland. Most of this was done by fast-moving airplanes ant tanks. They continued to use this strategy on other countries to try and conquer as much land as possible. France and Great Britain declared war on Germany and the battles began.
After signing the nonagression pact, Hitler quickly made plans to move forward and conquer Poland. They used lightning war, or blitzkreig, to take Poland out of surprise. Also, before all of this, actions in World War I had set off factors that would affect the set off of World War II. France and Great Britain declared war on Germany in September 3rd, 1939. Poland's military response was still not quick enough to fight off Hitler's victory.
Hitler started by taking over new places then going after poland. After WWI the allies had cut out the polish corridor from german territory to give poland access to the sea. In 1939, hitler demanded that the polish corridor to return to germany.
1.) Hitler signed a deal with the Soviet Union that said that they would divide up Poland after they invaded it. The Germans moved in with their war strategy the blitzkrieg, and the soviets followed. Shortly after that, France and Great Britain declared war on Germany and WWII started. Another cause of WWII was the bitter feelings among countries that were left after the treaty of Versailles.

After WW1 the Allies tried to enforce The Treaty of Versailles, which would put all the blame on Germany... also they would have to pay back money for the destruction of the war... And they wanted their land back and more. America joined in after Japan boomed Pearl Harbor. The U.S. was already making atomic bombs. Also when started to work for the men. In 1937 the Nanking Massacre was held in China.
1.)Hitlers invasion of Poland in 1939 led both France and Britain too declare war on Germany, setting the stage for world war II. The fast moving armored vechicles that were made after world war I might have set apart of the reason that world war II would happen. One of the most successful was Panzer IV, which was saw in action in world war II
1) Hitler was excluded from the Munich Conference. Hitler promised Stalin territory, Germany and the Soviet agreed to divide Poland between them. After signing the nonaggression pact, Hitler moved ahead to conquer Poland. On September 17 Stalin sent troops to occupy the eastern half of Poland. Then he moved to annex countries to the north of Poland.
1.)The Germans were anding on to their military.They anded their most trusted allies.They killed Jewish people because their leader at the time told them to and they didn't want to get killed either by not following his orders.
