World War II Recovery
The United States should have helped Germany to recover. World war II was very destructive, especially to the economic sector of the country. There are some of the significant reasons why the United States should help Germany recover. It would have indicated that united was very powerful when it comes to rescuing suffering countries had it helped Germany before world war II occurred. Pronay et al. (Vol 34) The support to Germany would have interfered with the Cold War, leading to the spread of communism. The united states were also responsible as to why Germany was involved in world war II, and therefore helping Germany was imminent. The treaty of the Versailles, which was from one of the united states’ leaders, hurt Germany and left the country into a bad condition, making them angry, resulting in world war II.
United states rescuing Germany before world war II would have shown the significant power they had and the benevolence. Earlier before the Nazis took over, their economy had gone down and was in bad condition. Nevertheless, a massive amount of capital was also damaged during the six years of bombing and battles in Germany Pronay et al.,(Vol 34). The property was also destroyed without people expecting the compensation either. Several were also forced to move to a new land and hunger became so popular in Germany. Some families became separated for so long. Children encountered a lot of suffering because they were no longer with their parents. Crimes also were evident with people suffering due to a lack of food and unemployment that was present in Germany. Their political state was also in shambles and was almost coming to an end. Germany had suffered because the deaths were many, and it was experiencing some of the adverse economic effects. This was due to the Hitler effect. Moreover, the help to the Germany nation could have done positive economic, political and could have possibly changed the country to a democratic one. The effect in Germany would have led to communism hence affecting the political part of the country also.
United states helping Germany during their struggles after world war II could have led to the cold war being interrupted and still resulting in the communism, which would have highly spread. The lack of support often from the world’s powerful country, the United States included led to communism in the country. Suppose the united states could offer some assistance to Germany’s struggles after world war II; it would have changed the entire country into a democratic society. The help would have evaded the spread of communism, Germany had huge losses especially during world war II in terms of industrial power the country had and also the lives people in Germany, It was estimated that 7.5Million people in Germany had been killed and that was a significant percentage to the German population. The mass bombing and genocides that were so deliberate hurt the people and their lives. Many saw their lives taken away by the un human activities that used to take place. The cities in Germany were also damaged, and the production rate was too slow and had a lot of losses. Germany Stalin would even have not overtaken Germany, and therefore the possibility of Germany becoming a communist country would have been very few. Germany decided to reconstruct its economy on its own, and consequently, this showed the country’s level in terms of the independence and communist ideals it had.
The United States was part of the causes of world war II in Germany since the Treaty of the Versailles, which was written by one of the United States leaders, led to Germany’s economic destruction. Germany was left in a bad state due to the Treaty (Berle,2015). The treaty also led to the nations being involved in world war II and affecting the other countries in terms of their economy. The agreement of the Versailles, which was signed in the month of June 1919, had the importance of terminating world war one and also had a goal of bringing together nations of the whole world. The treaty also had put the entire blame to the Country of Germany for proving the start of the war, and therefore, the country had to be highly punished for resulting in such losses to the nations and their economies. The treaty of peace also punished the country of Germany through the trade for peace. The agreement majorly caused Germany to have economic problems and harshly humiliated them for their mistake of provoking the start of the war. The resentments which were from Germany’s side entirely led to world war II, and it meant adverse effects both to the country and other nations. The United States should have, therefore, put up some of the terms and policies that would ensure there is peace in Germany. The United States did not do anything about Germany’s needs (Berle,199-218). Germany highly needed support from the United States so that they can rescue its economy and maintain peace in the country.
Moreover, Germany decided to act to resolve some of the vital issues affecting them as a nation. Their activities and acts of independence towards the treaty often resulted in the erupting of world war II. It also continued even after the war, and it was also evident through the leader’s dictatorship form of leading the people.
In Conclusion, the United States should have convened in Germany struggles. United would have helped the Country of Germany have some of their common issues solved. With the United States’ help, Germany recovered from their condition, which was so bad back then. Germany would have been very far if the united states had helped the country improve its economy (Berle,199-218). The help would have also evidently shown the power and the benevolence that the united states had. Instead, the United States disrupted the process by which the well-known communism spread and the fascist’s ideals within the Germany environs. The United States also made up the unfair resolves that were embedded in the treaty of the Versailles. The society would have been a better place with countries having healthier relationships, had the United States helped Germany recover from their struggles in their economy.
