The Origins and the Causes of the First World War - What were the main mid-term causes?
8 important questions on The Origins and the Causes of the First World War - What were the main mid-term causes?
How did the importance of Nazi ideology in the war evolve?
- Expanded German 'living space' at the expense of 'racially inferior' people; some of whom were enslaved (the Poles) and others of which were persecuted or killed (Jewish poles)
However, as the war continued it increasingly became driven by Nazi ideology, and also encompassed an ideological struggle between Nazism and communism; this was most obvious in June 1941 when Hitler invaded the USSR
Counter-argument: Why did the Nazis invade the USSR?
- Winter War 1939-49, between Russia and Finland to gain territory North of Leningrad; Russian troops initially outfought and defeated by smaller Finnish forces
- Although Russia won; casualties were very high
International Consensus was that Russia wouldn't survive an attack by expert, battle-hardened German forces
Moreover, at Russia's defeat Britain's Middle-Eastern oil supplies and India itself would be ripe for the picking
This German confidence is supported that there were few in-depth preparations for a long campaign.
What is an example in the late 1930s that shows that until quite the USSR still wanted to co-operate with France and Britain?
- Even though Stalin saw the need to prevent the success of Fascism he didn't go 'full out' out because he thought it would cause panic within the French and British government

For my 1st exam I got a C. Then, I started looking for ways to learn better and I came across Study Smart. Since then I have scored a A+, A, A- and another A. I highly recommend it to everyone who wants to hear it. I am so happy with it!!
I was struggling to finish all my first-year subjects for 3 years. Then I discovered Study Smart, which helped me to finish all of them within 3 months.
Because of StudySmart, things are going well in many ways. Before, I always had study stress and no time for anything. Now I feel calm and confident (because of the program). I used to score a B, now I usually score an A or A+.
Hey Chris, I really want to thank you very much for developing the platform, I usually got around C for my exams, now I scored an A+, an A and a A- !!
Since using Study Smart, my average has increased significantly. I even completed a statistics course with a A+ while I'm bad at statistics. I took on extra courses this year, because of Study Smart. Thanks so much!
Ever since I started studying with StudySmart I passed all my exams !!! No more re-sits!! At first, I was happy with a pass and now I only get good grades. Many thanks!
I aced all the courses I studied with Study Smart. For law, I first scored a D, and now an A! I’m 100% sure that I’ll pass all the courses I study with Study Smart.
I always thought I studied well. My grades were fine. I could never have imagined that applying these study skills would have such a huge and direct impact on my grades, my speed and the pleasure I have in learning.
For the first time, I finally feel totally confident about the way I learn. I have the perfect overview and make great progress in terms of speed and the grades I get. Thanks, Chris!
I immediately started to enjoy learning again, and my grades soared. All of a sudden, everything went better. I highly recommend Study Smart to all students..
Being able to create my materials online made the process of studying so much smoother and quicker. I no longer have to spend a huge amount of my time on creating my summaries.
At first, my notes were a mess. Now I use Study Smart to take my notes in a perfectly structured way. It helps me to save a lot of time and do other things I enjoy.
Students that study with Study Smart get better grades. The system applies all the learning methods in such a way that both well-performing students and students who struggle perform much better.
Hi Chris, I would like to thank you very much. Last year I scored C on a course, and this year I got an A+ thanks to your method! Thank you very much!
The largest effect is that my child is more enthusiastic about school! Every parent wants their children to be happy at school, Study Smart made it happen.
In high school, I failed several exams, and that has really changed now. I actually needed this tool very much back then. Since I started studying with StudySmart, I haven't had any D's. My average score is now an A and those are results I would have never had in the past
With my old method, I passed only 3 out of 8 courses. Since I started taking my notes digitally in Study Smart, I have passed all my courses on the first try. For me, StudySmart takes away the stress of wondering if I will pass or not.
Thanks to StudySmart, I passed all my exams, and with better grades than before! On top of that, I have mastered a very good study method now, which I am confident will help me earn my degree.
What general reasons led Germany, Italy and Japan to want to go to war with what would later make up the Grand Alliance?
- Each state had beliefs rooted in military values and historic glories
- All sought territorial gains to solve domestic problems
- All took advantage of neighbours considered weak, but whose strength was underestimated
- Racial pride was an factor that influenced military policy
- All believed empire would help economic and military power
- All were mistakenly encouraged by weak responses of democratic powers and the belief none of these democracies wanted to sustain long and costly wars

- Japan was not awarded the lands dominant position in China that it wanted; for example rather than gaining Shandong province; Japan was forced to withdraw from China
- Also only given the right to administer Pacific islands south of the Equator, not absolute ownership of them
- Affronted when Racial equality was rejected as a principle of the League of Nations
As such, Versailles became a grievance for Japan as it was for Germany, Italy and Russia
What examples are there of the West encouraging Japan to be imperialistic?
- Korea became a 'protectorate of Japan'
- Manchuria into its economic sphere of influence
These were encouraged by western powers:
- 1902: Anglo-Japanese Alliance
Signing and re-signing of this treaty after the war endorsed the Japanese annexation f Korea
2. 1905: Treaty of Portsmouth
Theodore Roosevelt won the Nobel Peace Prize mediated the treaty that ended the war; recognised Japan's supremacy in Korea and thus the United States approved Japan's annexation

What quote summarises the delusion of Japanese ideas of racial superiority?
