To ensure future peace, world powers ( Britain, France, USA) met together in Versailles to draw up a treaty to lay out terms that would keep the peace. The treaty blamed Germany completely for WW1 which outraged them. They reduced Germany's army significantly and prevented German troops from occupying the Rhineland. They made Germany outlaw Conscription and made them pay reparations to France. Germans were outraged by the treaty and wanted a leader to destroy the treaty. They blamed the government for accepting the terms of the treaty and this led to the rising of Hitler and Fascism. Hitler's promised to destroy the treaty and did everything to go against it. He brought back conscription, occupied the Rhineland and reintroduced conscription as well as not paying reparations to the French. This led to tension around the world because of Hitler and his actions, leading to the outbreak off WW2
