The Treaty of Versailles. (ended WWI)

2009-02-25T18:24:00.000-08:00

Treaty of Versailles affected Germany at the end of world war one because there were dealt with in separate treaties. Germany was forced to borrow some money from America, in order to pay its war debt to England and France. This was very hard for them. It went to a point, which America went threw a depression and was unable to let Germany borrow any more money. Germany didn't have much choice.
I personaly don't think the treaty was fair. I say this because they weren't ready for what was coming up. They need more time.
One of the rules that they had was, that they only had three week to acppect the terms of treaty, (which it had not seen prior to delivery).
Historians think that the Treaty of Versailles led to the rise of Fascism and Adolph Hitler because he would put stuff in their minds and they would blieve it and follow it as well.

Mustafa Kemal (Ataturk) and the Modernization of Turkey.

Mustafa Kemal modernized Turkey and made it more secular because he pioneer of national liberation. He was as well the founder of the Turkish Republic so the people repect him for that.

Secular means "of or pertaining to worldly things or to things that are not regarded as religious, spiritual, or sacred; temporal."

Gandhi.

Gandhi helped his nation of India gain Independence from Great Britian because he never gave up and showed the Indian people how to never give up. Gandhi believed in non-violence; and so he told the Indian people not to fight; even if it involed them getting hurt. Ganhi went to jail many times, but yet he didn't give up. He was a rolemodel, a leader which everyone in Inida would look up too.

I believe that if it wasn't for Ganhi, India wont have there Independnce, because they would of never stand up for themsleves and so they would of never changed and stayed the same.
