Treaty of Versailles

After reading about the Treaty of Versailles it seems like the Germans were basically screwed over by the Allied nations. I think the Treaty was very unfair because the not everything about the war should be blamed on the Germans, considering Austria-Hungry was the country that started the war. Also the Allies should have been smart enough to know that the Germans would eventually want revenge for the Treaty.

What Creates A World War?

I believe that for a World War to happen there needs to be a chain of events that happens where several countries feel the need to fight. For example, World War 1 happened because of the complex system of allies that Europe had at that time. So when two countries got in a conflict, the other countries felt that they needed to join in because they were allies of each other. This eventually led to two different groups of allianced countries fighting against each other. For a World War to happen today, something along those liens would need to happen again, where two major powers get in a fight and other countries come to their defense, eventually causing another instance of big groups fighting against each other.
