Why did Hitler declare war on the USA? @GNi33 You are using "interesting" sources! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institute_for_Historical_Review "Critics have accused it of being an antisemitic "pseudo-scholarly body" with links to neo-Nazi organizations, and assert that its primary purpose is to disseminate views denying key facts of Nazism and the genocide of Jews and others. It has been described as the "world's leading Holocaust denial organization." I wouldn't trust too much the stuff they put on their webpages. |

What was the reason for inflation in Britain after the Black Death? I don't think it's likely that the numbers of labourers and nobles were reduced by the same amount. For example, being well fed must have improved the chances of survival of the latter. |

Which 11 countries were democratic in 1941? @Squark Did you read their criteria? I wouldn't say Poland is a perfect democracy, either. |

What factors contributed to earlier democratic states failing? I wouldn't say that a struggle between rich and poor means that the state is not democratic. This struggle takes place in any form of government, also in today's liberal democracies. |

Why did Hitler attack the Soviet Union when he was still busy fighting the United Kingdom? @Rincewind42 The Germans were big on territorry. They wanted to exterminate the Slavic population of Russia and colonize it with German settlers. Of course, the desire to wipe out the Jews in Russia was also a big factor. |

Why did Chamberlain act to appease Hitler leading up to the outbreak of World War 2? History Channel is not a good source. |
