In a 5-10 sentence paragraph, explain how the end of World War One, and the Treaty of Versailles, contributed to the rise of Fascism in Germany.

The first World War ended with the Treaty of Versailles, which ruined all of what Germany had gained from the war. Included was that Germany couldn't have an army of any great size nor power, large portions of the territory gained was taken, it forced Germany to pay for the damages which were caused, and to admit that the war itself was Germany's fault. Each part of this Treaty angered Germany. So when the Nazi's became popular, it appeared that the Nazi's (who were fascist) might be able to abrogate the treaty and Germany to what they thought was its rightful place as a major power, the Germans supported them.
