March 1936 – Germans occupied the Rhineland with troops – again violating the Treaty of Versailles and again resulting in no reaction from the Western democracies. March 1938 – Austria was annexed by the Third Reich. Sept 1938 – Munich Agreement. Educational History Games. Propaganda Posters.
Each of the nations which participated in World War One from 1914-18 used propaganda posters not only as a means of justifying involvement to their own populace, but also as a means of procuring men, money and resources to sustain the military campaign.
In countries such as Britain the use of propaganda posters was readily understandable: in 1914 she only possessed a professional army and did not have in place a policy of national service, as was standard in other major nations such as France and Germany. How war stories inspire children to learn. 12 February 2012Last updated at 00:58 For many school pupils, the dramatic events of WWI and WWII have not been solely learned through studying dusty history textbooks.
Many fictional tales of loyalty and survival - often based on true wartime events - have also helped children to understand what happened.

About this Visualization This animation is intended to be used as a tool for exploring the historical evolution and geographical context of one of the Nazis' chief systems of exploitation and control: the concentration camps administered by the SS.
The spatial and temporal patterns revealed in this visualization raise questions that we hope will spur further inquiry. These include (but are certainly not limited to): How was the location of camps related to resources and territorial control? Why did some camps exist only briefly while others lasted for years? We invite you to explore these patterns and share your own observations. Data notes: History - World Wars: Animated Map: The Western Front, 1914 - 1918. History: World Wars in-depth.
