I thought this was like, the 10th grade history class of how WWII happened.

Germany lost WWI and got completely screwed over (Germany didn't have a "Roaring Twenties" just a really long depression) and life just sucks. Then comes this charismatic asshole comes along and says "All of your problems are these guys fault!" which was kinda a general opinion of the time anyway and got everyone stirred up so they could get out of the depression and become a superpower again. And all the hatefulness was just ignored by the rest of the world (because everyone is kinda low-key racist) so it just festered up and by the time anyone realized there was a problem, it had gone way too far.

And even then, it was only a problem because these guys started beat up your friend (France) because you all teamed up on him a couple years ago.

This was basically the way WWII started according to my 10th grade history class.
