| | Rhineland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In violation of the Treaty of Versailles and the spirit of the Locarno Pact, Nazi Germany reoccupied the Rhineland on Saturday,March 7, 1936. | | | Further more (and quite unbearable from the German perspective) the treaty entitled the Allies to reoccupy the Rhineland at their will, if the Allies unilaterally found the German side responsible for any violation of the treaty. | | | Today, the German region of Rhineland consists of the states of Saarland, North Rhine-Westphalia and Rhineland-Palatinate. |

| | 1935 Rhineland Crisis |
| | Although the French government had been aware of Hitler’s plan to reoccupy the demilitarized Rhineland during the Spring of 1935, it took the French government nearly a year to decide how they would respond once Hitler decided to move German troops into the Rhineland. | | | The French leaders concluded that British support was crucial in their decision because without British support the French were not confident fighting the Germans. | | | The indecision lasted until mid February of 1936 when French Foreign Minister Flandin suggests that a formal complaint be made to the League of Nations once the Germans chose to invade the Rhineland. |

| | The Rhineland was the scene of the Rhenish separatist movement, whose leaders staged uprisings in Düsseldorf, Bonn, Koblenz, Wiesbaden, and Mainz, and proclaimed a Rhineland republic at Aachen in 1923; the movement, however, collapsed in 1924. | | | In Mar., 1936, however, the National Socialist (Nazi) government of Germany began to remilitarize the Rhineland, and at the same time Hitler denounced the Locarno Pact. | | | The German fortifications in the Rhineland—the so-called Siegfried Line—were an extensive system of defenses in depth, which were penetrated by the Allies in World War II only after very heavy fighting. |

| | France would therefore ask the Council of the League to declare that there had been a breach of articles 42 and 43 of the Treaty of Versailles [decreeing demilitarization of the Rhineland]. | | | The militarization of the Rhineland was a direct blow to French security inasmuch as it rendered worthless the promises of military aid by France to her eastern European allies Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia and Romania if any of them were attacked by Germany. | | | If such violations were tolerated by members of the League as a whole, and in particular by the Locarno Powers, there was no basis for the establishment of international order, and no chance for the organization of peace through a system of collective security under the Covenant (of the League of Nations). |
