The reason for the outbreak of World War II is not certain. It is no debate that there are many different perspectives on the main cause of the Second World War. Some believe the war may have broke out because of the weakness of the League of Nations. While others believe it was the unnecessary Munich Agreement, or act of appeasement, that led to war. (D-7) While many people think the war began simply because of strong nationalism in some countries. Before the start of World War I many people hoped for world peace from the League of Nations. For a short period of time, the league was helping to create a more peaceful world. This all ended when militarism began to be encouraged by dictatorships in the 1930’s. (Text. Pg.698) Since Britain was weekend by the results of WWI, they tried to avoid war that would further weaken their economy at all costs. The League was weak for many different reasons. One being that the three countries that were the biggest threats of peace were in the League- Germany, Japan, and Italy. While, the united States and the Soviet union were not members.
