History: Aspects of British History in 20th Century

This series of four talks will explore key changes in Britain from 1914 to 1924. We'll begin with the reasons for Britain's entry into World War I, followed by the war's impacts on society, politics, and the economy. We'll also examine the 1916 Easter Rising to understand Britain’s complex relationship with Ireland. Finally, we’ll discuss the 1923 election and the first Labour government in 1924. No prior knowledge is needed, and questions will encourage discussion on this intriguing period of history.

History: Germany between the World Wars - Part 1

At the end of the First World War, Germany underwent dramatic change. The Kaiser abdicated, and the country emerged from a period of autocratic rule to embark on a bold and (on paper) very progressive experiment in republican democracy. At the same time, the victorious allies of the Great War imposed a punitive peace treaty on Germany at Versailles, reflecting their belief that Germany has caused the war and should pay the price. These changes, together with other factors such as the worldwide economic situation between the wars ushered in a period of social, political and financial turbulence in which Hitler and the Nazis would eventually rise to power.
