By the mid-1930s, many commentators believed that a second world war was inevitable.
A series of interconnected events, in China and Ethiopia, in Germany, Austria, and Spain, and sometimes faltering responses by Britain, France, the United States, and other nations, brought full- scale war ever closer.
Between 1931 and 1939, these events precipitated the world once again into war.
