How did the rise of fascism affect world events following World War I?
 Rise of Fascism:

– Fascism is political philosophy
in which total power is given
to a dictator and individual

freedoms are denied and
nationalism and, often,
racism are emphasized.
– Fascist dictators included
Adolf Hitler (Germany),
Benito Mussolini (Italy), and
Hideki Tojo (Japan).
– These dictators led the
countries that became known
as the Axis Powers.


The Allies
 Democratic nations (the United
States, Great Britain, and
Canada) were known as the
Allies. The Soviet Union joined
the Allies after being invaded by
Germany.
Allied leaders included Franklin D.
Roosevelt and, later, Harry S.
Truman (United States), Winston
Churchill (Great Britain), and
Joseph Stalin (Soviet Union).
The Big Three



Fascism is a government that is run by one person who takes his
beliefs and makes them law. The country is ruled by one person
who controls every part of your life.
With Germany’s
problems with their
money and lack of a
strong government.
Adolf Hitler was
allowed to take
control. People wanted
someone to take
control and get things
back on track. He
promised to fix
everything. However,
he eventually wanted
to rid all of Europe of Jewish citizens and used his power to try.
Benito Mussolini – dictator that took control in Italy who joined
forces with Hitler and eventually turned on him.
Axis Powers AKA Axis of Evil
F.D. Roosevelt & Truman were US Presidents
Winston Churchill was the head statesman of Great Britain
(England + other countries)
Joseph Stalin – Soviet Union Leader (Russia + other countries).
The Soviet Union is a Communist Country like Germany that does
not believe in a democratic government. The only reason the
Soviet Union
became an
Ally is
because
Germany
Invades them
after WWII
begins.

The Great Depression was World Wide
The US decided after WWI that it needed to take care of
the country before helping others. So we separated ourselves
from the rest of the world for awhile.
After some time, we realized that Europe was in great
trouble and we began giving money to our allies/friends.
Then the US was forced into WWII by Japan – Pearl Harbor,
Hawaii.
“The Day that will Live in Infamy”
Japan attacked the Navy base in Hawaii without warning.
The US declared War on Japan quickly after.

Concentration Camps –
Stereotype -
Before Nazi/Hitler – the Anti-Semitists were called “BrownShirts” in 1933.
They banned Jewish citizens from schools, universities and were
forced to live in certain locations in the country.
They did not like the Jewish because of a stereotype – that
Jewish people are good with money. Germany was struggling with
money and many non-Jewish were unhappy.
Also, an assassination of a
Germany Diplomat in 1938
sparked more violence
toward the Jewish
community.
The Holocaust is the
Actual Event of capturing
and killing Jewish citizens
in Europe.
Concentration camps are
the places Jewish citizens were taken after their capture.
If people survived the War or Concentration Camps, they were
released by US & Ally soldiers. They were very sick and needed a
lot of care, but survived to tell their tale.
Some German citizens that did not believe in Hitler/Nazi’s would
hide Jewish families in their homes. If, they got caught, they
would be punished too. Story – Diary of Anne Frank.

What effect did the war have on race relations in America?


The need for workers
temporarily broke down some
racial barriers (e.g., hiring in
defense plants), although
discrimination against African
Americans continued.
While many Japanese
Americans served in the armed
forces, others were treated
with distrust and prejudice,
and many were forced into
internment camps.
USII.7a


Factories needed workers, so
they hired whoever wanted to
work. Women & minorities.
The US was scared that the
Japanese-Americans were spies
for Japan and would sneak
things into the country or give
information away.

Internment Camps were not
nearly as bad as Concentration
Camps. They had housing, water,
food, etc. They were just removed
from their homes/communities
because of Fear.
