While the 1918 armistice seemed to mark the end of the “Great War” in the West, Central and Eastern Europe descended into bloody turmoil that would last until 1923. Franck Segretain traces these little-known conflicts in detail, from Ukraine to Turkey by way of Poland and the Baltic states, where dying empires gave way to emerging nation-states amid civil and territorial wars. This book examines how the peoples’ drive for self-determination, championed by President Wilson, collided with conditions on the ground and Bolshevik ambitions, resulting in more than five million additional casualties. An essential historical overview for understanding the roots of the geopolitical tensions that still divide Europe today.

The giant awakens: the United States in the Second World War. The United States, although emerging strengthened from the First World War, subsequently turned inward, allowing Asia and Europe to go up in flames one after the other.
