Lesson 38: Interwar | WHP with Wood Boyles

Today, we call the period from 1919 to the late 1930s “the interwar period.” The bitterness felt by many nations after World War I helped cause the deadliest war in human history. In the lead up to that new war, the Great Depression devastated nearly all the world’s economies. The hope in the 1920s that internationalism could save the future from war quickly faded in the 1930s, as economic collapse led to the rise of fascism and authoritarianism. The horrors of the Second World War could not have been predicted, but we have the ability as historians to debate their causes.
