When and why did the WW2 start?

[Viridian1]

Hey, I would like to know how is it taught at schools in different countries. When did it start, Who started the war, what was the reason, who is real victim and etc.

[Jana]

here it's learned it started with german attack on poland 1939
(reason: conquest, justified by some german diversion on their own police station pretending to be poles etc)

The same that Felichy, but it's a very simplistic answer to a complex problem.

If I am not wrong, WW2 started in September 1939 when Nazi Germany attacked Poland. The main reason might be the Nazi Germany’s desire of colonization or Hitler’s psychopathic thoughts about Jewish people.

1939. Germany attacks Poland.

Does someone learns anything different than that?

Who started the war: Germany
Reasons: The unfair Treaty of Versailles, Trianon, St Germain
Who is real victim: innocent civilians and the ruined Europe which lost the world dominance

By the way the WW2 was a continuation of WW1, when some retard feudal kings, emperors and bored nobles maked such apocalypse which is almost destroyed the European Civilization. I'm pretty sure that the real reason of WW1 were not the colonies but the egoism and megalomania of these feudal rulers who don't even care the peoples and their nation only their personal interests. The another real reason was the tons of modern weapons, new military technologies/things and these feudal kings/emperors wanted to try it for fun just like a kid when he's playing with a pc game. In the reality there was no national interest to make world war anywhere in Europe. England and France had many colony and they dominated the World outside of Europe. Germany and it's "vassal" Austria-Hungary dominated the european continent, Russia dominated Asia etc. There's no real reason for this apocalypse, brainless bloodbath and crippled generations only the idiotism of these feudal leaders who lived in their rich castles, detached from reality and the life of simple peoples doesn't matter to them, they are the biggest traitors of Europe this is the truth.

i agree 100% that WWII is a continuation of WWI, and that WWI was a meaningless war, caused by the European nobility playing some sort of sick war game

We are learning it the same way. And that it was partly the WWI treaties and how the losers took it, that set it in motion.

i have seen an indie straight to dvd movie in streaming on the first battle ,it was quite interresting ,but you should watch the labyrinth of silence/lies (Im Labyrinth des Schweigens) of Giulio Ricciarelli

Judea declared war on Germany in 1933, ww2 was physical one. I wonder what Poles think about it. If they didn't oppress, rape, massacre Eastern German minorities, ww2 wouldn't start.
