  1. CHAPTER 17SUMMARY

  2. The people of Germany and Italy turned to dictators who promised to redraw the boundaries set at Versailles and to stop the spread of Communism.

  3. There was a conflict between isolationism(avoid foreign entanglements) and internationalism(assume responsibility for events abroad).

  4. The Dawes Plan attempted to give financial support to Germany, but the United States cut off funds when the Depression hit.

  5. Some nations turned to dictators to solve their problems. The dictators formed totalitarian states which came to control all aspects of a person’s life. Individuals had few rights.

  6. The Japanese were aggressive in China(Manchuria) in an effort to secure markets and raw materials.

  9. The Neutrality Act of 1935 barred the sale of arms to warring nations.

  10. The Good Neighbor Policy toward Latin America said that “no state had the right to intervene in the internal or external affairs of another.” In other words, FDR was contradicting the Roosevelt Corollary.

  12. The German-Soviet Pact(also called the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact) stated that neither side would declare war on the other.

  13. “Blitzkrieg” was the strategy of sudden attack and fast movement…a “lightning war.”

  14. Winston Churchill inspired both British and Americans by pledging “to wage war, by sea, land and air, with all our might and with all the strength that God can give us.”

  15. Lend-Lease was the program where the United States would “lend” Great Britain whatever supplies it needed to wage war on Germany.

  16. The Atlantic Charter was an agreement between Roosevelt and Churchill to seek no territorial gain and to maintain “the right of peoples to choose the form of government under which they will live.”

  17. An embargo against Japan brought a complete halt to trade, stopping shipments of scrap metal, oil, and aviation fuel to Japan.

  18. TORA! TORA! TORA!was the Japanese cry of attack, when they made their surprise bombing of Pearl Harbor on Sunday, December 7, 1941, at 7:55 a.m.
