Hitler also didn't like the rules that were put on Germany after World War I. So, he
decided to break them. He started to take over other countries without asking
them if it was okay. This made many countries like Britain and France very angry.
But at first, they were scared to start another war, so they let him do it. But when
Hitler invaded Poland, they said, "Enough is enough," and declared war on
Germany. This was the start of World War II.
At the same time, far away in Asia, another powerful country, Japan, was also
trying to take over other countries. Japan attacked the United States at a place
called Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, which led the United States to enter the war, too.
World War II was a very sad time. Many people fought and many people died.
But it's important to remember this part of history so we can learn from it. We
need to remember that hate, fear, and unfairness can lead to very big
problems. It reminds us that it's always important to treat each other with
kindness and respect, and to stand up when someone is being unfair.
