Describe the major causes of the Second World War.

The Second World War (1939-1945) was a catastrophic conflict shaped by complex interconnections of political, economic, social, and ideological factors. From the perspective of international relations, its causes lie in a combination of unresolved issues from the First World War, the rise of totalitarian ideologies, systemic weaknesses in international governance, and aggressive expansionist policies.

### The Treaty of Versailles and Post-War Discontent
The Treaty of Versailles (1919) sowed the seeds of resentment, particularly in Germany. The treaty imposed severe reparations, territorial losses, and military restrictions on Germany, fostering economic instability and national humiliation. The discontent created a fertile ground for Adolf Hitler’s rise to power, as he exploited public anger against the treaty to galvanize support for his expansionist and nationalist agenda. Similarly, Italy, though on the victorious side, felt shortchanged by the treaty, further stoking its revisionist ambitions under Benito Mussolini.

Economic hardship intensified nationalist and protectionist policies, undermining global cooperation. In Germany _________ ___ ___ ____ ____ _________ _________ ________ _________ ________ _______.
