Political Instability in Europe Post WWI

After WWI Germany suffered many losses not just economically put politically as well.  Political leadership was weak and uncertain. There was a lack of political stability in Germany following the end of World War I because of some political, economic and social reasons. There were many reasons for the lack of political stability in Germany.

The biggest problem was the Weimar Republic itself which was one reason for political instability. The democratic government allowed the people to choose their own leaders and it also allowed the existence of many parties, and the Republic instituted the method of voting in which the Germans practiced was better known as "proportional representation."

While Hitler’s reign continued, he adopted the philosophy of fascism in Germany.  This philosophy gave Hitler the power in the start of his Dictatorship. Fascist leaders such as Hitler encouraged extreme nationalism to build up unity and obedience among the nation’s  people.  Hitler often encouraged racial emphasis beliefs in the systematic way of one’s nation and racial group. 

In 1948 Winston Churchill set up the European Assembly which meets four times a year in Strasbourg, Germany.  Winston Churchill also created the Court of Human Rights.  The Court of Human Rights and the law regarding human rights was created in-part that "none should be subjected to torture" after so many Jews were tortured in the concentration camps by Adolf Hitler.  He vowed to bring unity to Europe after the devastation of the WWI and WWI in Germany.
