chosen: Yes, you are right. World War 1 did not definitively settle things, resulting in another conflict 20 years later, World War 2. There were several underlying causes of World War 1, including regional tensions, military alliances, imperialism and a nationalist fervor among all the countries involved. This lack of settlement and all of the issues that caused World War 1 meant there was fertile soil for another conflict. With countries feeling emboldened and believing more conquest or protection was necessary, another war, much more destructive than the first, ensued.
