Flappers caused WWII??? Thats a stretch. No, the very onerous armistice terms forced on Germany after WWI are the primary cause of WWII. The Germans were resentful, and, being Germans, didn’t stay down for long.

Even now, after being decimated during WWII and split apart for 45 years afterwards, who’s running Europe? The Germans. (but I digress)

Huh???

The direct reason for the rise of Nazi Germany and the eventual conflict called WWII is not in dispute and had little to do with Flappers from the 1920’s.

Hyperbole does not have to be a good thing...

Could start by reading up on IG Farben, Dillon Read, Standard Oil.

Question to ask is which countries and companies fared well during and after the war.
