HW 25

A.) Rearmament was Hitler's orders to increase the German army from 100,000 to 300,000 men. Remilitarization was Hitler's occupation of the Rhineland, the area previously taken away by the Treaty of Versailles. Anschluss was the union between Germany and Austria-Hungary.
B.) In 1934, Hitler put his rearmament policy into effect, increasing the size of the army from 100,000 to 300,000. The navy was to build six submarines and two battleships, along with the creation of an air force.
In 1935, Hitler openly called for a raft along with a new goal of boosting the army to 550,000. In 1936, Hitler marched forces into the Rhineland, which went against the Treaty of Versailles. In 1938, Hitler's Anschluss with Austria-Hungary went against the clause in the Treaty of Versailles prohibiting Germany from being allied with any other countries.
