WORLD WAR II (WW-II)
World War-II, known to be the largest war in human history. This war started on the 1st of September 1939 and ended after 6 years on 15th of August 1945.
As far as its causes are concern, there are number of reasons which led to World War-II. Among those, few of the main reasons are going to be mentioned here by me for you people.
1- World War-I and Versailles Treaty are known to be main cause of this war as the treaty was not accepted by Axis Powers
2- *Appeasement:
"Appeasement is a diplomatic policy. Its aim is avoiding wars"
3- Rise of *Totalitarianism in Germany, Italy, Japan & USSR
4- *Fascism
* Totalitarianism is the state when the government aims to control the political, social, economical & cultural life of its citizens.
* Fascism is a political belief that an individual is less important than a nation.
