What was the political situation between world war 1 and world war 2?

Between World War I and World War II, the political landscape in Europe was marked by instability and the rise of totalitarian regimes. The Treaty of Versailles, which ended World War I, imposed harsh reparations on Germany, leading to economic turmoil and political unrest. This environment facilitated the rise of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party, as well as other authoritarian movements in Italy and the Soviet Union. Additionally, the failure of the League of Nations to maintain peace and address grievances contributed to the growing tensions that ultimately led to the outbreak of World War II.
