Very well put!

Few people realize in Imperial Germany the right vote was more widespread then Imperial UK. The common man had far more rights in Austro-Hungary then in our ally Russia.

It is interesting to find out about some background on Japan, too. Apparently, Japan was somewhat insulted at being left out of the armistice proceedings, having been on the allied side. Yes, they were physically there, but not involved in helping negotiate. Additionally, by the ‘20s Japan had quite a lot of contact with Germans both culturally and politically. I don’t know a lot about it all except what I recall from the programs I’d seen, one about WWI, and the other “the Samauri and the Swastika”, but it all starts coming together when one hears about that background.
