The Interwar Period refers to the time between the end of World War I in 1918 and the beginning of World War II in 1939. This era was marked by significant political, social, and economic changes across the globe. Many countries faced economic challenges, including the Great Depression in the 1930s, which led to widespread unemployment and social unrest. During the Interwar Period, various political movements emerged, including the rise of fascism in countries like Italy under Benito Mussolini and Nazism in Germany under Adolf Hitler. The League of Nations was established in an attempt to promote peace and prevent future conflicts, but it struggled to maintain stability in a rapidly changing world.
