Question

What problems did the western world face after the war, specifically what happened in 1929? What was the impact of all this on Europe?

Answer 1

What happened in 1929? A lot of things happened in 1929 like James got married and Mary felt ill. But who cares about James and Mary? I don't. But on the last quarter of 1929 - from September to November, the day that the entire world will never forget the stock market of New York started to plunged way way down and this led to the great depression.

How did it impacted the entire Europe? Well, it did not affect only the entire Europe but also brought down the rest of the known world.

The Great Depression was a worldwide economic downturn which started after the Stock Market Crash in October of 1929 and continued through the 1930s. It began in the United States and quickly spread to Europe and every part of the world, with devastating effects in both industrialized countries and those which export raw materials. International trade declined sharply, as did personal incomes, tax revenues, prices and profits. Cities all around the world were hit hard, especially those dependent on heavy industry. Construction was virtually halted in many countries. Farming and rural areas suffered as crop prices fall by 40 to 60 per cent.

Mining and logging areas had perhaps the most striking blow because the demand fell sharply and there were few employment alternatives. The Great Depression ended at different times in different countries; for subsequent history see Home front during World War II. Most countries set up relief programs, and most underwent some sort of political upheaval, pushing them to the left or right. Democracy was weakened and on the defensive, as dictators such as Hitler, Stalin and Mussolini made major gains, which helped set the stage for World War II in 1939.

Answer 2

I'm assuming you're talking about ww1. The biggest issue for Europe and America was the impeding stock market crash/great depression.

Other key issues was America's view of pro-isolationism, creating a strong league of nations, and recovering costs of the war.

Rather than become the war to end all wars, World War 1 set up the stage for World War 2. The victors of WW1 put all the bill and blame on Germany, causing Germany to be an economic disaster, which was an ideal breeding ground for a monster such as Hitler. Germany's astounding debt that was pinned on them after the war eventually lead to the collapse of the European economy.

In America, the costly war lead to strong anti-involvement feelings. Although the war had helped prepare the US economy for a second huge war, making the States a military super power, the United States refused to enter the newly formed League of Nations, causing this League to be no more than a paper tiger.

Answer 3

I can not believe no one here did not knows about the Dawes Plan. America was sending aid through very large and long term bank loans. These loans helped Germany through their economic woes. England, and France depended on Germany's reperation payments, so the American loans had a triple impact as well.

When the depression hit these loans stopped and banks went under. Germany now has to fend for itself and it goes into a depression followed by the rest of Europe. With the reparation payments, loss of trade, lack of farming the European economy tanks.

In America after the war the economy is strong, and shaky. Banks are loaning money vie margin, and speculation. People are over investing in the stock market and when it drops it takes alot of banks with it. With people running to get their uninsured money out. This also causing more banks to fold. The farming aspect is much worse through the whole 1920's. Please do not think that farming was so grand during the Roaring 20's. Farming was dead after the Great War. Farmers over produced food, and borrowed money to grow on more land. When the prices fell due to lack of war time need the farmers grew more and borrowed more. This meant farming was dead before the crash.

Answer 4

i believe that what happened in 1929/30 was the collapse of the stock exchange. if i had to make a sweeping generalization, i'd say the main problem after the war was economic/financial, for everyone.
