Question: What were the main causes of WW2!?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

The root causes of the Second world war were the unfinished business of the first world war!. Europe was ravished and their economy a failure!. Inflation left the money in Germany worthless!. Hitler came to power after the failure of the Weimar republic to stabilize the economy and feed the people!. Hitler used a build up of war industry to rebiuld the businesses of Germany and brought employment to many of the unemployed!. He bought their allegiance in this way and and paved the road to his dictatorship!.

In the far east, Japan was needing raw materials for their dev eloping industrial might and decided to get it by invasion!. They attacked China and Manchuria!. The US honored their treaty with China and stopped shipments of oil and scrap steel to Japan!. This made the Japanese either to stop their industry or find what they needed by war!. They chose war, even though some of the Japanese leaders knew they could not win!. This is an over simplified version but gives the keys!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Germany not following the The treaty of Versailles!. They invaded poland, and they used weapons when they weren't supposed to!. And the Japanese attacking pearl harbor on december 7, 1941!. hitler becoming chancellor of germany, than making many cruelty laws against jewish people!. These are just a few reasons!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Too many pussy politicians letting Hitler get away with what he wanted, and not making Germany follow the peace agreement signed in 1918 after WWI!. also letting Japan expand its colonialism militarily unchecked in Asia!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Tension had been building up in Europe for years, but the main cause, I think, was the Allies doing nothing in the beginning to stop Hitlers terror!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
