Which of these was not a cause of WWII? *

The death and destruction of World War I was so

horrible that it was called “the war to end all wars.”

Yet, the agreement to end World War I did not resolve

the problems of the world and, according to some

historians, lead directly to the next catastrophe:

World War II. The major causes of World War II were

numerous. They include the impact of the Treaty of

Versailles following WWI, the worldwide economic

depression, failure of appeasement, the rise of

militarism in Germany and Japan, and the failure

of the League of Nations.

when world war i broke out across europe in 1914, president woodrow wilson proclaimed the united states would remain neutral, and many americans supported this policy of nonintervention. however, public opinion about neutrality started to change after the sinking of the british ocean liner lusitania by a german u-boat in 1915; almost 2,000 people perished, including 128 americans. along with news of the zimmerman telegram threatening an alliance between germany and mexico, wilson asked congress for a declaration of war against germany. the u.s. officially entered the conflict on april 6, 1917.
