YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe result of World War One was, ultimately, fascism and World War Two; the result of World War Two was peace. In this video, I look at the conditions that started what some have termed 'the Long Peace', that led to stability and economic prosperity in Europe unprecedented in history.
