1. The Treaty of Versailles and the Other Peace Settlements (1919–23) | 凡尔赛条约与其他和平解决方案（1919–23）
The Paris Peace Conference of 1919 was dominated by the ‘Big Three’ – Georges Clemenceau of France, David Lloyd George of Britain, and Woodrow Wilson of the USA. Each leader had different aims: Clemenceau wanted revenge and security against future German aggression; Lloyd George sought a balance to avoid a resentful Germany but also promised his public to ‘squeeze the German lemon’; Wilson pushed for a just peace based on his Fourteen Points and a League of Nations.
1919 年的巴黎和会由「三巨头」主导——法国的乔治·克列孟梭、英国的大卫·劳合·乔治和美国的伍德罗·威尔逊。每位领导人都有不同的目标：克列孟梭希望报复德国并确保未来安全；劳合·乔治希望达成平衡以避免充满怨恨的德国，但也向公众承诺要「榨干德国」；威尔逊则推动基于其「十四点原则」的公正和平以及国际联盟。
The Treaty of Versailles imposed harsh terms on Germany: territorial losses (Alsace-Lorraine to France, the Polish Corridor, and demilitarisation of the Rhineland); military restrictions (army limited to 100,000 men, no air force, no submarines); reparations fixed at 132 billion gold marks (later reduced); and the infamous War Guilt Clause (Article 231) which blamed Germany for starting the war. The treaty was seen as a dictated peace (Diktat) by many Germans, sowing bitterness.
《凡尔赛条约》对德国施加了苛刻条款：领土损失（阿尔萨斯-洛林归还法国、波兰走廊、莱茵兰非军事化）；军事限制（陆军限于 10 万人，不得拥有空军和潜艇）；赔款定为 1320 亿金马克（后减少）；以及臭名昭著的「战争罪责条款」（第 231 条），将战争责任完全归咎于德国。该条约被许多德国人视为「强制和平」（Diktat），种下了仇恨的种子。
Other peace treaties similarly dismantled empires: Treaty of Saint-Germain (Austria), Treaty of Trianon (Hungary), Treaty of Neuilly (Bulgaria), and Treaty of Sèvres (Ottoman Empire, later revised at Lausanne). These treaties redrew the map of Europe, creating new nation-states such as Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia, but often left ethnic minorities on the wrong side of borders, causing future tensions.
其他和平条约同样瓦解了帝国：《圣日耳曼条约》（奥地利）、《特里亚农条约》（匈牙利）、《纳伊条约》（保加利亚）和《色佛尔条约》（奥斯曼帝国，后于洛桑修订）。这些条约重绘了欧洲地图，产生了捷克斯洛伐克、南斯拉夫等新民族国家，但常常使少数民族处于边界错误的一侧，引发未来的紧张局势。
2. The League of Nations: Successes and Failures (1919–39) | 国际联盟的成败（1919–39）
The League of Nations was created to promote collective security and prevent war. It had some early successes in the 1920s, largely solving disputes between smaller nations.
国际联盟的成立旨在促进集体安全并防止战争。它在 20 世纪 20 年代取得了一些初步成功，主要解决了较小国家之间的争端。
- The Aaland Islands dispute (1921): Sweden and Finland both claimed the islands; the League ruled in favour of Finland, and Sweden accepted the decision.
- Upper Silesia (1921): Germany and Poland contested this industrial region; the League organised a plebiscite and partition, which both sides accepted.
- Greco-Bulgarian dispute (1925): after a border incident, Greece invaded Bulgaria; the League condemned Greece and ordered withdrawal, which was obeyed.
- 奥兰群岛争端（1921 年）：瑞典和芬兰均声称对该群岛拥有主权；联盟裁决归芬兰，瑞典接受。
- 上西里西亚（1921 年）：德国和波兰争夺这一工业区；联盟组织全民公决并进行分区，双方接受。
- 希腊-保加利亚争端（1925 年）：边界事件后希腊入侵保加利亚；联盟谴责希腊并下令撤军，得到遵守。
However, the League failed to deal with major powers and was severely weakened during the 1930s. The Manchurian Crisis (1931–33) saw Japan invade Chinese Manchuria, and the League’s Lytton Report condemned Japan, but Japan simply left the League. The Abyssinian Crisis (1935–36) saw Italy invade Abyssinia (Ethiopia); the League imposed ineffective sanctions, and Britain and France secretly considered giving parts of Abyssinia to Italy (Hoare-Laval Pact). These failures destroyed confidence in collective security.
然而，国际联盟未能对付大国，并在 20 世纪 30 年代受到严重削弱。在满洲危机（1931–33 年）中，日本入侵中国满洲，联盟的李顿报告谴责日本，但日本索性退出联盟。在阿比西尼亚危机（1935–36 年）中，意大利入侵阿比西尼亚（埃塞俄比亚）；联盟实施了无效制裁，而英法暗中考虑将阿比西尼亚部分地区割让给意大利（霍尔-赖伐尔协定）。这些失败摧毁了人们对集体安全的信心。
3. The Collapse of International Peace in the 1930s | 1930 年代国际和平的崩溃
Hitler’s aggressive foreign policy systematically overturned the Treaty of Versailles and moved Europe towards war. Key steps included: rearmament in 1935 (introducing conscription and an air force), the remilitarisation of the Rhineland in 1936, the Anschluss with Austria in 1938, the Sudetenland crisis and the Munich Agreement (September 1938), the occupation of the rest of Czechoslovakia in March 1939, the Nazi-Soviet Pact (August 1939), and finally the invasion of Poland on 1 September 1939.
希特勒的侵略性外交政策逐步推翻了《凡尔赛条约》，推动欧洲走向战争。关键步骤包括：1935 年重整军备（引入征兵制和空军）、1936 年莱茵兰重新军事化、1938 年与奥地利合并（德奥合并）、苏台德危机与《慕尼黑协定》（1938 年 9 月）、1939 年 3 月占领捷克斯洛伐克剩余地区、《纳粹-苏联条约》（1939 年 8 月），最终于 1939 年 9 月 1 日入侵波兰。
The policy of appeasement, most associated with British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, was adopted for several reasons: fear of another devastating war, the belief that the Treaty of Versailles was too harsh, the desire to buy time for rearmament, fear of communism (many saw Hitler as a buffer against Stalin), and the lack of reliable allies. Appeasement ultimately failed because it encouraged Hitler to demand more, convinced he could act without serious opposition.
与英国首相内维尔·张伯伦联系最紧密的绥靖政策被采用，原因有多个：对另一场毁灭性战争的恐惧、认为《凡尔赛条约》过于苛刻、希望为重整军备争取时间、对共产主义的恐惧（许多人将希特勒视为抵御斯大林的屏障）以及缺乏可靠盟友。绥靖政策最终失败，因为它鼓励希特勒索求更多，使他相信可以不被认真反对就采取行动。
4. Origins of the Cold War (1945–49) | 冷战的起源（1945–49）
The wartime alliance between the USA, Britain and the USSR broke down due to deep ideological differences and mutual suspicion. At the Yalta (February 1945) and Potsdam (July 1945) conferences, disagreements emerged over the future of Germany, reparations, and the nature of governments in Eastern Europe. The USA’s possession of the atomic bomb also alarmed Stalin.
美国、英国和苏联之间的战时同盟因深刻的意识形态分歧和相互猜疑而破裂。在雅尔塔（1945 年 2 月）和波茨坦（1945 年 7 月）会议上，在德国的未来、赔款以及东欧政府性质等问题上出现了分歧。美国拥有原子弹也使斯大林感到震惊。
Key events in the early Cold War included the Long Telegram (George Kennan, 1946), which argued that the USSR was inherently expansionist and must be contained; Churchill’s ‘Iron Curtain’ speech (1946); the Truman Doctrine (1947), promising to support free peoples resisting armed minorities or outside pressures; and the Marshall Plan (1947), which offered massive economic aid to rebuild Western Europe. The Soviet response was the creation of Cominform (to coordinate communist parties) and Comecon (to integrate Eastern economies), culminating in the Berlin Blockade (1948–49). The West’s successful Berlin Airlift and the formation of NATO (1949) solidified the division of Europe.
早期冷战的关键事件包括：长电报（乔治·凯南，1946 年），主张苏联本质上具有扩张性且必须被遏制；丘吉尔的「铁幕」演讲（1946 年）；杜鲁门主义（1947 年），承诺支持自由人民抵抗武装少数派或外部压力；以及马歇尔计划（1947 年），提供大规模经济援助重建西欧。苏联的回应是成立共产党情报局（协调各国共产党）和经互会（整合东方经济），最终导致柏林封锁（1948–49 年）。西方成功的柏林空运和北约的成立（1949 年）巩固了欧洲的分裂。
5. Cold War Crises: Korea, Cuba and Vietnam | 冷战危机：朝鲜、古巴与越南
The Korean War (1950–53) was the first major armed confrontation of the Cold War. North Korea, backed by the USSR and China, invaded South Korea in June 1950. The United Nations, led by the USA, intervened and pushed the communists back to the Yalu River, triggering Chinese intervention. The war ended in a stalemate and armistice, reinforcing the division of Korea and the policy of containment in Asia.
朝鲜战争（1950–53 年）是冷战的首次重大武装对抗。1950 年 6 月，受苏联和中国支持的北朝鲜入侵南朝鲜。以美国为首的联合国军进行干预，将共产主义军队推回鸭绿江，导致中国介入。战争以僵局和停战协定结束，巩固了朝鲜的分裂以及亚洲的遏制政策。
The Cuban Missile Crisis (1962) brought the world closest to nuclear war. After the failed Bay of Pigs invasion (1961), Soviet leader Khrushchev secretly placed nuclear missiles in Cuba. US President Kennedy imposed a naval blockade and demanded their removal. After tense negotiations, Khrushchev agreed to withdraw the missiles in exchange for a US pledge not to invade Cuba, and secretly the USA removed missiles from Turkey. The crisis led to the ‘hotline’ and the Partial Nuclear Test Ban Treaty (1963).
古巴导弹危机（1962 年）将世界推到核战争边缘。在猪湾入侵（1961 年）失败后，苏联领导人赫鲁晓夫秘密在古巴部署了核导弹。美国总统肯尼迪实施海上封锁并要求撤走导弹。经过紧张的谈判，赫鲁晓夫同意撤走导弹，换取美国承诺不入侵古巴，同时美国秘密撤走了在土耳其的导弹。这场危机促成了「热线」和《部分禁止核试验条约》（1963 年）的签订。
The Vietnam War (1954–75) saw the USA intensively applying containment under the domino theory. The US supported South Vietnam against communist North Vietnam and the Vietcong. Despite massive bombing and over 500,000 US troops, the Tet Offensive (1968) turned American public opinion against the war. Vietnamisation and peace talks eventually led to US withdrawal, and South Vietnam fell in 1975.
越南战争（1954–75 年）见证了美国根据多米诺理论大力推行遏制政策。美国支持南越对抗共产主义北越和越共。尽管进行了大规模轰炸，并投入超过 50 万美军，但春节攻势（1968 年）使美国舆论转向反战。越南化和和谈最终导致美军撤离，南越于 1975 年陷落。
6. Soviet Control over Eastern Europe (1948–c.1989) | 苏联对东欧的控制（1948–约 1989 年）
After WWII, Stalin established satellite states in Eastern Europe, enforcing communist rule and economic integration through Comecon. The Warsaw Pact (1955) was a military alliance to counter NATO. However, Soviet control was repeatedly challenged.
二战后，斯大林在东欧建立了卫星国，通过经互会推行共产主义统治和经济一体化。华沙条约组织（1955 年）是与北约对抗的军事联盟。然而，苏联的控制多次受到挑战。
- Hungarian Uprising (1956): Imre Nagy declared Hungary’s withdrawal from the Warsaw Pact and free elections; Soviet tanks crushed the revolt, showing that the USSR would not tolerate liberalisation.
- Prague Spring (1968): Alexander Dubcek introduced ‘socialism with a human face’; the USSR and Warsaw Pact forces invaded, and
