Treaty of Versailles.
- Allies reject Japan's request for a racial equality clause (this makes Japan all angry and stuff... not a good start)
- Germany are forced to accept the blame for the Great War, have to pay a ridiculous amount of reparations, military restrictions and etc. They just cop it badly really.
USA refuses to join League of Nations and decide to go for a policy of isolationism instead, but they kept their open door free trade policy with China.

1929
Leni Riefenstahl stars in 'The White Hell of Piz Palu'. Woo hoo.

1905? Uhm.
Russo-Japanese War I suppose. It's hardly relevant to our topic but it was mentioned briefly in the beginning of Conflict in the Pacific. Japan defeated Russia and it was sort of like a wake up call to the rest of the world because it was the first time an Asian country had defeated a European power.

German split into 4 zones, 3 Allied controlled zones and 1 USSR controlled. Berlin was split as well.

Don't know anything about 1983. Leni Riefenstahl was probably busy taking underwater photographs of coral. She lied about her age so she could get a scuba diving permit, haha.

1915
LOL XD

1915 - Germans begin their submarine blockade of Britain; torpedo the Lusitania.
April: Allies open a new front at Gallipoli; withdraw in late december.

President Hindenburg dies in early August this year.
Hitler becomes Fuhrer of Germany almost immediately.

1973
The only topic that covers this for me was Leni Riefenstahl and her Nuba photography was published in 1974 I think, so I'm going to assume Leni was in Africa taking photos of the Nuba people in 1973.
