But without the peace treaty this anger and vengeance would not have existed in the first place.
Hundred Years’ War, fought by both England and France, had a profound impact on the next stage of their histories. Both sides experienced changes after the war that substantially decreased the income of many peasants. The war was fought almost entirely in France and had many consequences on the political, economic, and social fabric of both countries. The Hundred Years’ War changed both governments by making England more liberal and France more conservative than before, by affecting the economic fabric through changes in the lives of peasants, and by altering the social fabric through revolts and a changes in how the countries felt about themselves.

The cold war also led to destructive conflicts like the Vietnam War and the Korean War. This tore families and societies apart leaving people homeless, jobless and grieving over lost ones. This overall had a negative effect on society but some good did come out of it, for example the Berlin Wall was demolished and the two German nations were unified, the Baltic States and some former Soviet Republics achieved independence, Communism collapsed worldwide and America became the sole superpower of the world. (A Brief Overview of the causes and effects of the cold war, 2017). However wars which still affect and guide people’s actions to this day is World war one and two.
As a result, Germany was left with hyperinflation and a destroyed economy. It can be said that World War II was mainly the outcome of (Germany’s) Depression. However, the Depression could not incite the world onto a path of another war unless the circumstances for this strife were already rooted in the tensions of the treaty PERSONAL ANALYSIS?

Commendable yet unreasonable, leaders whose sole purpose in life is to fix what they see as “wrong” with the world fall prey to thinking there is only ally or enemy. In the long run, they harm those they try to liberate.
There are many reasons why World War II started. To put into a big category, the main cause of the war is the first world war.

When learning about and analyzing acts of mass atrocity during World War II, hundreds if not thousands of questions can be asked trying to gain a deeper understanding for their actions. Probably one of the most intriguing thoughts to ponder is what leads individuals and societies as a whole to descend to such a level of cruelty. According to the author of Unbroken, Laura Hillenbrand, one reason may be, “Few societies treasured dignity, and feared humiliation, as did the Japanese, for whom a loss of honor could merit suicide.
