What was the Dawes Plan?
How did the "Age of Anxiety" change the way people viewed society?
The Dawes Plan was an attempt following World War I for the Triple Entente to collect war reparations debt from Germany.After 5 years, it was considered unsuccessful and the Young Plan replaced it.
The Age of Anxiety changed the people's view a lot because it showed them the real situation that their country was in. being able to see the problems, the common people will have a better look at the government's actions in dealing with these problems. This causes more conflicts between the common people and the government.

What was the major objective of the Kellogg-Briand Pact? How big of an impact did this have on diplomacy in the years to come?
The purpose of the Kellogg-Briand Pact was to have an agreement between the 62 nations that instead of using violence, they would discuss any problems and be more diplomatic. It was not effective because it was unorganized and had no real leader.
Feminism started to grow during the 1920's. Since men were preoccupied with post-war issues, women had to take the leading role in families. Women would also start to gain more rights and freedoms ! GO WOMEN.
Last post was supposed to discuss families and sexuality of women...you almost got it
what were the significant battles on the western front...?
The most significant battles on the Western Front were the Battle of Verdun, the Battles of the Marne, the Battles of Ypres, and the Battle of Somme. The Battle of Verdun was a ten month long ordeal between the French and German armies. Both the French and German armies suffered incredibly with estimated 540,000 French and 430,000 German casualties and no strategic advantages were gained for either side. The Battle of Verdun is considered to be one of the most brutal events of World War I. The Battle of the Marne (1914) stopped the Germans from reaching Paris as part of the Schlieffen Plan. After that the war became more about position then movement and trench warfare became a major part of the war. During the second battle of Ypres, poison gas was introduced by the Germans and the Battle of Somme was one of the biggest military slaughters in history.

Why was the "League of Nations" so weak?
How were European nations affected by the United States stock market crashing?
The league of nations lead to the u.s senate ratifying thus resulting in u.s isolationism. without the great power of u.s interferenc, europe now lacked the potential guidance and assistance that the u.s usually gave them.
Europe was affected by the u.s's stock market crashing because it led to their economy do go down. they heavily relied on the u.s for overseas trade. this also caused a high unemployment rate due to less goods being exported and imported. few nations were able to withstand the time of the u.s's great depression.
The "League of Nations" was so weak because they had no effective army, France and Britain, deeply affected by WWI, only had self-interest, and the Treaty of Versailles had unfair results.
European nations crashed when the United States stock market crashed because they relied on the United States for trade overseas.
