The Treaty Of Versailes

The treaty affected Germany after the world war one because, the British took away a lot of territory. Lot of over sea colonies were taken away and shared with the allies and massive, German populations lived out side of the new German boarder. economy was very messed up. As said another affect was when terms of the treaty supported the rise of the Nazis and the Third Reich in 1930s Germany, which in turn led to the outbreak of World War II. One of the rules that the germans had was they were limited to how many people they had on there army. They were not allowed to have and air force or draft any citizen`s. Germany was to never again unite with austria. I personally think the the treaty of Versailles was fair not fair because alot of property was taken away from the German,effects of the treat of Versailles has alot to do with why i think its not fair to Germans. The treaty of Versailles led to the facism with alot of economical problems do to The NSDAP, or Nazi Party ruled by a charismatic leader Adolph Hitler who promised a strong Germany and to free them from humiliation of the treaty of Versailles.

Film lesson: "Gandhi"

Gandhi was born in 1869 died in 1948 he was assasinated in 1948 by religous extrmous. Gandhi's full name was mohandas karamachand gandhi. Gandhi was the leader of a indian  nationalist movement against the british rule. He never let nothing stop him from saying what he had to say, he stood up mostly for both the muslims and indians. he was like a father to his country alot of people looked up to this great man named gandhi. British rules led to alot of indian people rebelling against the britsh once again, this ment no meetings for the muslims or the indians. This all led to a massacare by the british troops evan there own people turned against them,shooting at mothers fathers todlers evan babies!. 1200 were killed and 400 hundred people were wounded. This led to the indians protesting and using violence wich british started arresting the muslims. Gandhi also got arrested to, for no reason cause or anything at all. The british always tryed to back gandhi up. But nothing would stop him for speaking his rights agianst the britsh
