Rise of Hitler — Quiz

Question 14 • World History CR

Why did Hitler most likely believe Germany had a right to invade other countries?

Answer
A
The German economy relied on selling exports, and these nations were no longer purchasing them.
B
The Third Reich was a struggling government that needed to gain land.
C
The Treaty of Versailles did not state that Germany could not invade other countries.
D
The concept of nationalism meant keeping all Germans together.

Explanation

Hitler used nationalism to claim that German-speaking people should be united under one German state. That belief helped him justify taking territory from neighboring countries where Germans lived, though it did not make the invasions legitimate. The German economy and the Treaty of Versailles do not best explain this nationalist justification.
