Intwerwar period

During the Interwar period various countries in the world including: Germany, France, Japan, China and the United States suffered severe changes in both their economy and political matters. This interwar period lasted from 1918 to 1939 and occurred between World War I and World War II. In this period most of the countries changed their government by creating revolutions and taking out the old government. During the year 1868 Japan took the Tokugawa Rule and replaced for the old Meji regime. This also happened with China when they took out the Quing Dynasty to replace it with another democracy which later turned into a dictatorship. Another important circumstance that related all of these counties specially the United States was the Great Depression during 1922. This Economic failure affected countries worldwide. When this occurred the country of Germany got seriously affected by it because they were vulnerable due to the World War I that had already weakened them in a strong way.

During the years of the Interwar various strikes were performed by workers against their bosses and the government. This was going on in various places because people were desperate for money but didn't want to loose their jobs. An example of a place that did this was the United States. Before the Great Depression workers were making strikes for better payment but stopped because during the time of economic drop citizens could hardly get a job or maintain the one they already had. The United Kingdom is another country that did strikes done by desperate workers that wanted less hours of work and more payment but it was unsuccessful. During this time I believe that a person that would make a better job in controlling the situation would be Hitler. In this moment people were becoming insane and desperate for a better economy and I think that Hitler would do a great job in persuading the people to be calm and make them realize that it would change in a positive way in the future and right now instead of panicking they should get their head up and try to reconstruct their lives.

So the Interwar period was a time were various nations were in tough times that had to be overcome in order not to fall into ruin. Each country had different problems that came back to the issues from world war I. They all solved these problems in their own way by changing their government,ruler, or their own attitude towards the situation, anything that would contribute to the reconstruction of the economy. Although the Interwar Period was harsh for almost all the countries in the world, it was only preparation for the World War II which was a real problem that was not imagined until seen.
