The Fragile State Of The World's Major Powers Heading Into WW2 | Impossible Peace | Real History

Interesting topic in todays day in age. Almost like history is beginning to repeat itself.

What an ignorant comment. How exactly is 3.8% unemployment similar to the Great Depression?

[@paigetomkinson1137]

What a fascinating documentary! I love how it takes on the U.S., UK, and Germany at the same time. The numbers are startling regarding the depression. Can we hope for a part two?

Human nature has not changed much more than 2,000 years ago, which might be the reason why history repeats or rhymes. It is changing much faster due to scientific discoveries, technological innovations, and real-time global communication via social networks. Thank you for the video.

Nope. Sorry, Frank: It is a routine repetition of accepted myths.

[@ryanreedgibson]

Human nature doesn't change but much of everything else has. What helps is studying history, so we don't repeat the same mistakes. After WW2 we had the Marshall plan that kept Germany healthy after the war and today there are so many monetary levers available to mitigate a crash and depression.

[@robertewing3114]

A good approach to the question of how distracted people were by economics, and how few people commented against Hitler obtaining power, one of which was Neville Chamberlain, and another of which was Winston Churchill, the principal future war-time succession. Once Hitler had power WWII was inevitable, and it is pointless following the controversies generated by that reality, the scandalous reality that German militarism was back despite declarations that millions died to end it - the controversies were fueled by political rivalries, and most agreed to jump on Chamberlains grave, the term appeasement having a new and negative meaning. Dont be fooled by the high jumping elites, they only want high status and pay, none of them could have done better than Chamberlain.

Yes , it was poverty , inflation and massive wealth inequality that led to political instability and political polarization . This occurred in Italy , Japan and Germany and to a lesser extent France . First there was to rise in communist parties , and in response far right military governments . .

[@franckbushbaum9653]

That couldn't be more wrong. The French had suffered more war casualties per total population in WW1 so couldn't recover their birth rates. WW1, the western front, was fought mostly in the North of France, as luck would have it the Northern France was its industrial center... After the war not only did the UK and America pressure France to stop receiving German reconstruction payments, the US never stopped demanding that France pay back its own war loans. The average duration of French governments lasted anywhere from 2 weeks to 6 months; with divides between fascists, royalists, republicans, socialists and communists widening. While Germany nationalized its industry under fascism, the French shut down their industry to get an 8 hour work week and paid time off in riots (it was, after all, a democracy). This channel and perhaps you, are more interested in an Anglo-American retelling of history. If you're interested in what happened in France during the 1920s and 1930s; "The Collapse Of The Third Republic" by William L. Shirer is a good source.

@@franckbushbaum9653 Suggest reading what was written . " ... it was poverty , inflation and massive wealth inequality that led to political instability and political polarization . This occurred in Italy , Japan and Germany and to a lesser extent France . ... " Then you wrote " The average duration of French governments lasted anywhere from 2 weeks to 6 months; " So there was political instability in Post WW I France . " with divides between fascists, royalists, republicans, socialists and communists widening. " So there was political polarization in post WW I France. Was there high inflation in post WW I France ? Was there massive wealth inequality in Post WWI France ? The point being that " poverty , inflation and massive wealth inequality led to political instability and political polarization " .

[@franckbushbaum9653]

I'm well aware of what was written, like this: "Political instability and political polarization ... to a lesser extent in France." So there was more political instability and political polarization in Totalitarian Germany then in Democratic France? Germany turned into a totalitarian regime in 1933 -- that is defined as a form of government that prohibits opposition political parties, disregards and outlaws the political claims of individual and group opposition to the state, and controls the public sphere and the private sphere of society; so that would naturally make the system MORE politically stable and LESS polarized. As opposed to France which was a multi-party parliamentary democracy, which is inherently LESS politically stable and MORE polarized, especially when you take into account the wealth inequality and political scandals of the 1930s. The invasions of Czechoslovakia and Poland were seen as "A failure of democratic forms of government", where there was no unity in French society like there were in German society at the time. So yea to claim that during the years leading up to WW2 there was a greater amount of political instability and political polarization in Totalitarian Germany of all places or the USA than in France when it was literally the opposite is to have an incomplete and probably biased view of the subject, to put it as nicely as possible 😂😂

[@Thomas_Name]

26:40 This is the kind of discourse that will always cause people to repeat the past. The majority of people in Germany were responsible for Hitler's ascent and government. They were not opressed by a dictatorship. They wanted a government that would bring about "the victory of strength, responsibility, and ability" and that is what the nazis promised and delivered. Most people did take Hitler serious. It were mostly his political opponents who thought he was ridiculous. As is the case with most autoritarian regimes, they come to power because most people support their "ideals". Not simply because of clever manipulation. The majority of people in a country are - through the things they value in society - responsible for the governments that take and retain power in their countries and for the way those governments treat minorities.

[@Hans-k9j]

False, Hitler never had a majority in parliament and dit not have a majority amongst the people. Once established, he just used terror to stay in power.

je connais très mal la mythologie grecque, je ne connais donc pas l'histoire des deux frères nommés Castor et Pollux...pourtant je viens d'avoir une idée très bizarre : je me demande si dans cette 2ème guerre mondiale, l'Allemagne et les Etats-Unis ne se sont pas transformés en Gémeaux...! Regardez : deux états mis ko par la crise de 1929 qui mettent chacun à la tête du pays un dirigeant très ambitieux , soucieux de remettre son pays à flot, mais dont l'état de santé est catastrophique...ce qui a finalement abouti à une bataille entre un pot de fer...et un pot en acier inoxydable. Alors quand l'orage s'est levé et que les pluies ont suivi...vous connaissez la suite, l'un des deux pots a rouillé. Bon, je sais la comparaison est nulle...et probablement fausse. Et si c'était le pot de terre qui vait gagné...? (the level of my knowledge of Greek mythology is very low, so I do not know the story of two brothers named Castor and Pollux...yet I've just had a very strange idea : I wonder whether in the 2nd world War, Germany and the USA were not changed into the Gemini brothers...! Look : two states the 1929 crisis knocked out seated at the head of their country a very ambitious leader who wants the country to take again position on the starting blocks, but whose state of health is catastrophic...which, in the end, led to a fight between a clay pot and a stainless steel one. So when the storm broke up and when the rains began to fall...you know how it ended, one of the pots got rusty. Alright, I know, the comparison is worth nothing, and probably wrong. And suppose that the clay pot had won?)

[@TheDavidlloydjones]

It is not true that "in the United States the Depression bottomed out in 1932," as claimed here at 1:30. This is the Official Truth of supporters of the New Deal, a racontage that has FDR turning things around magically and from the moment he took office, but the truth is quite different. In fact all economic indicators in the United States continued to fluctuate, with several times being worse than 1932 before WWII picked things up. The New Deal helped some of the poorest some of the time, and produced some important new instiutions, but it did very little for the overall economic condition of the United States during the 1930s. The video is retailing pure popular propaganda.
