History & Social Studies

Some have said that the only thing we learn from history, is nobody learns anything from history. Mr. H. G. Well is an exception. He offered the following statement in his book A Short History of the World, published in 1922, about the punitive measures taken against Germany at the treaty of Versailles, and the lack of any provisions to end the root causes of the World War.

Page 422 

The war had arisen as a natural and inevitable consequence of the competitive nationalisms of Europe and the absence of any Federal adjustment of these competitive forces; war is the necessary logical consummation of independent sovereign nationalities living in too small an area with too powerful an armament; and if the great war had not come in the form it did it would have come in some similar form - just as it will certainly return upon a still more disastrous scale in twenty or thirty years time if no political unification anticipates and prevents it. States organized for war will make wars as surely as hens will lay eggs...
