Book description
The Treaty of Versailles was drafted in 1919 without the participation of the Germans as the main victims, forced on them against their protest and ultimately with the threat of prolongation of the hunger blockade as well as the Allied invasion. The hate-dictated cessions, the founding of new states and the formation of ethnic minorities in foreign ethnic states placed a heavy burden on Europe in the period that followed, led to Adolf Hitler and caused the Second World War. It is only in our own days that Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia are breaking down the last artificial structures of the Paris Suburban Treaties and finally giving way to more natural orders.
The formation and background of these Allied decisions, which determined the fate of our entire century, are masterfully described by Léon Degrelle. He fought against Marxism and Bolshevism all his life, in the Catholic Rex movement of the 1930s in Belgium, as a division commander in the Second World War in the East, then as a historical writer. In this work, the most decorated foreign officer of the German Wehrmacht, who was awarded the Oak Leaves, has mainly evaluated French sources of the time and compiled many significant details from them.
This is also the key to politics to this day. Anyone who wants to understand the history of the 20th century and the causes of the 2nd World War will find an exhaustive answer here in rousing style.
