2 0470/22/O/N/22 © UCLES 2022 Option A: Nineteenth century topic HOW FAR WAS GERMANY RESPONSIBLE FOR TENSIONS OVER THE ISSUE OF NAVAL POWER? Study the Background Information and the sources carefully, and then answer all the questions. Background Information Many historians would agree that Anglo-German rivalry was one of the reasons for Europe’s descent into war in 1914. For much of the nineteenth century Britain had confidently ruled the oceans. However, in the early twentieth century both Britain and Germany financed programmes aimed at greatly increasing the size and power of their navies. This rivalry contributed to the growth of militarism and tension between the two countries which helped turn the events of 1914 into a terrible war. It has been argued that Germany was mainly responsible for this rivalry because it considered a strong navy as essential for world domination. On the other hand, it can be argued that Germany’s desire to have a strong navy was reasonable and that it was Britain’s determination to remain the strongest sea- power that increased tension. How far was Germany responsible for the growing tension between the two countries? SOURCE A Britain’s naval policy was driven by the idea that its navy should always be superior to the combined strength of the next two most powerful fleets. It viewed Germany as the main threat, especially when Germany decided that it needed a modern navy. The Second German Naval Law of 1900 led to an increase in the size of the German fleet. Germany wanted this enlarged navy to ensure that it could take a full part in world affairs and protect its trade and colonies. This expansion of the German navy led to anti-German hysteria in Britain with popular stories about Germany planning an invasion of Britain. At this time Britain was obsessed with the Navy and this popular feeling led in 1906 to Sir John Fisher (the most senior Admiral) massively increasing the power of the Royal Navy by launching the ‘Dreadnought’ battleship which could out-gun any battleship afloat. This transformed the whole idea of naval warfare into a dangerous arms race. Germany was horrified and was forced to construct three of this new type of ship in 1906. In Britain the popular response was ‘We want eight and we won’t wait.’ Soon the government agreed to build eight more. Germany’s fears were increased in 1907 when the Anglo-Russian Entente left Germany surrounded by a coalition of Britain, France and Russia. From a recent history book.

3 0470/22/O/N/22 © UCLES 2022 [Turn over SOURCE B German battleship building and Weltpolitik opened the door to the Anglo-German naval race. Driven by a desire to make the German Empire the greatest world power and by anti-British motives, the Navy Laws of 1898 and 1900 laid out the course for a huge naval expansion. This expansion was directed against Great Britain and was supported by strong anti-British feeling in Germany. The completed navy would be stationed in home waters and be so strong that it could take offensive action against the British navy. It would also, so Admiral von Tirpitz hoped, force Britain into accepting the German bid for equality as a global empire. However, all it really achieved was to strengthen Britain’s determination to stay stronger than Germany by building Dreadnought battleships. Britain was faced with the German plan to build three large ships of the ‘Dreadnought’ type in 1906 and with the anti-British intentions of this plan. By 1908, Germany had launched the Nassau, the first Dreadnought battleship built for the German navy. From that time British naval construction and war- planning reflected the battleships being built in Germany and a full-scale naval race had begun. Some historians have argued that Germany’s desire to establish itself as a world power that over- shadowed Britain made the outbreak of war inevitable. From an online article. SOURCE C I see in British daily papers phrases such as ‘German challenge to British naval supremacy’. These phrases are daily drummed into British heads, and if not corrected, might bring about the most deplorable results. It is absolutely nonsensical and untrue that the German Naval Bill is to provide a navy meant as a ‘Challenge to British naval supremacy’. The German Fleet is being built against nobody at all. It is solely built for Germany’s needs in relation to our rapidly growing trade. A letter from William II to Lord Tweedmouth, February 1908. Tweedmouth was the British government minister in charge of the navy.

5 0470/22/O/N/22 © UCLES 2022 [Turn over SOURCE E A German cartoon about the English and German naval programmes, published in 1909. King Edward VII of Britain was the uncle of William II of Germany. A ‘study’ is a sketch or a practice piece done in preparation for a finished drawing. SOURCE F You are mad, mad, mad, mad. What has come over you that you are given over to suspicions quite unworthy of a great nation? What more can I do? I have declared with all the emphasis at my command that my heart is set on peace. I have said time after time that I am a friend of England, and your newspapers encourage the people of England to refuse my hand and imply that the other holds a dagger. But you will say, what of the German navy? Surely that is a menace to England! My answer is clear. Germany is a great and growing Empire. It has world-wide trade and interests in the most distant seas. Germany must have a fleet to protect all of this. Its horizons stretch far away. It must be prepared for any eventualities in the Far East. Who can foresee what may take place in the Pacific in the days to come, days not so distant as some believe, for which all European powers with Far Eastern interests ought steadily to prepare? William II speaking in an interview with an English journalist, 28 October 1908. The journalist sent a copy to William for approval before publication. William passed it to Chancellor Prince Bülow who did nothing with it, and the piece was published in an English newspaper. This contributed to Bülow’s resignation in 1909.

6 0470/22/O/N/22 © UCLES 2022 SOURCE G Though a Prussian myself, I consider Prussia a dreadful state from which nothing but dreadful things may be expected; Britain is sure to experience this sooner than most people think. I cannot understand why the British are letting Germany creep up to them so closely in naval armaments. As a member of the Budget Commission I can state that the German Naval Law of 1900 was directed against Britain and Britain alone. Three years ago when another budget was submitted to us it was clear that bigger ships were planned. I am convinced that we are on the eve of the most dreadful war Europe has ever seen. The catastrophe will come in 1912. Germany cannot hope to ever be in a better position for a sudden attack on Britain than then, when the naval forces will be almost matched. A secret letter from August Bebel to the British Foreign Office, October 1910. Bebel was the leader of the German Social Democratic Party which was in opposition to the government. SOURCE H In 1905 the British government announced that, if necessary, its navy would carry out an initial strike against us before we knew that war had been declared. Britain’s behaviour showed that it was strongly disposed toward delivering a single military blow that would destroy Germany’s international standing. Its keenness on war is understandable if one considers that war posed no risk for Britain at the time because of its Dreadnoughts. I responded to these pressures with care as I did not want to bring war any nearer. The British now deny wanting to go to war with us. As a result many in Germany believe that our fleet construction programme was responsible for the war. They are wrong. It is incomprehensible to me that Bethmann Hollweg continues to pin the blame on the so-called navy policy. The outbreak of war was not caused by a deterioration in Anglo-German relations. Germany and Britain were closer in 1914 than in 1896 when Germany had no navy. I did everything I could to keep negotiations with Britain on a naval agreement alive, but I slowly realised that the British did not take a naval agreement seriously. Rather, they convinced people that the German fleet was to blame for all their problems. They even convinced German diplomats in Britain that the horrible German fleet was all that stood in the way of an alliance with Britain. In fact, the risk of a war with Britain diminished because of the German fleet construction programme and respect for the German navy grew. From the memoirs of Grand Admiral von Tirpitz published in 1919. Tirpitz was in charge of the German Imperial Navy Office from 1897 to 1916 and was responsible for the reform and enlargement of the German navy. Bethmann Hollweg was head of the German government.

8 0470/22/O/N/22 © UCLES 2022 Option B: Twentieth century topic WHICH PART OF THE TREATY OF VERSAILLES DID GERMANY HATE THE MOST? Study the Background Information and the sources carefully, and then answer all the questions. Background Information The terms of the Treaty of Versailles came as a dreadful shock to most Germans. There were many things about it they did not like. They had been expecting that it would be based on President Wilson’s Fourteen Points. They also took exception to the enormous reductions made to Germany’s armed forces, the loss of German land which damaged its economic strength, the War Guilt Clause and reparations. How far was German hatred of the Treaty of Versailles based on the War Guilt Clause? SOURCE A We came to Versailles in the expectation of receiving a peace proposal based on the agreed principles. We were firmly resolved to do everything in our power to fulfil our grave obligations. We hoped for the ‘peace of justice’, which had been promised to us. We were horrified when we read the demands made upon us. The demands of this treaty are more than the German people can bear. We must lose Upper Silesia which forms the very foundation of industrial life throughout East Germany. Germany must agree to bear all the war expenses of its enemies which would exceed many times the total amount of German assets. Meanwhile our enemies demand reparation for damage suffered. The sum to be paid is to be fixed by our enemies. No limit is fixed. The German people will be condemned to perpetual slave labour. The reconstruction of our economic life is made impossible. We must surrender our merchant fleet. We are to hand over to our enemies our property in all German enterprises abroad. No German trader will be protected from these measures. Germany is prepared to devote its entire economic strength to reconstruction. It wishes to cooperate effectively in the reconstruction of the devastated regions of Belgium and Northern France. Germany demands a neutral enquiry into the responsibility for the war and the issue of crimes committed in the conduct of the war. The responsibility of all countries involved in the war should be investigated. From a letter by Count von Brockdorff-Rantzau, leader of the German delegation, to Georges Clemenceau, President of the Paris Peace Conference, May 1919.

9 0470/22/O/N/22 © UCLES 2022 [Turn over SOURCE B The peace conditions are so hard and humiliating that even those who have the smallest expectation of a ‘peace of justice’ are bound to be deeply disappointed. Has Germany deserved such a hard peace? Everybody knows how we condemned the crimes committed against humanity by Germany. Our opinion of the lust for power and conquest of Germany is well known. But a condemnation of wartime actions must not amount to a lasting condemnation of a people. Is there any sense in punishing a people in such a way as the Allies wish to punish Germany? The Allies desire the complete destruction of Germany. The financial burden is so heavy that Germany is reduced to economic slavery. This peace is a mockery of President Wilson’s principles. These terms will never give peace. All Germans must feel that they wish to shake off the heavy burden imposed by the Allies, and we fear that opportunity will soon present itself. Chained and enslaved, Germany will always remain a menace to Europe. We understand the bitter feelings of the Allies. But that does not make these peace terms less wrong or less dangerous to the world. An article in a Dutch newspaper, June 1919. The Netherlands remained neutral during the First World War. SOURCE C The more we understood the spirit of this Treaty, the more we became convinced that it could not work. The demands raised go beyond the power of the German Nation. We know the impact of the hate we are encountering here, and we have heard the passionate demand of the victors, who require us, the defeated, to pay the bill and plan to punish us as the guilty party. We are asked to confess ourselves the only culprits; in my view, such a confession would be a lie. We strongly deny that the people of Germany, who were convinced that they were waging a war of defence, should be burdened with the whole guilt of that war. A message from the German Delegation to the Allies, June 1919.

11 0470/22/O/N/22 © UCLES 2022 [Turn over SOURCE E A German cartoon commenting on the military terms of the Treaty of Versailles, published in 1933. The title of the cartoon is ‘The enormous military superiority of our neighbours’. The chains represent alliances. Germany is surrounded by (left to right) France, Belgium, Czechoslovakia and Poland. F = peacetime strength of armies; R = reserves. SOURCE F Britain, France and Russia all had reasons to overthrow Germany. Britain for commercial and political reasons, France because of its policy of revenge, Russia because it was an ally of France. We did everything in our power to reach an agreement with Britain. We built a navy for our own protection. The idea that we built it to attack the far stronger British fleet is absurd. Among the leaders of the Allies who really know, not a single one is really convinced of Germany’s guilt in having caused the World War. I know that Germany, if we had emerged victorious from the war, would have imposed quite different terms – terms that would have been just. After years of the heaviest trial will come liberation from the burden imposed unjustly upon a strong, honest nation. Then everyone of us will be glad and proud again to be German. From the memoirs of Emperor William II, published in 1922.

12 0470/22/O/N/22 © UCLES 2022 SOURCE G The German Republic was born out of a terrible defeat. This cast a dark shadow over the new political order. Everyone had expected a peace settlement in accordance with Wilson’s Fourteen Points, which all the countries involved in the war had accepted as the basis for peace. The criminal madness of the Versailles Diktat was a shameless blow to the new Republic. Its constitution was born with a curse upon it. That it did not immediately collapse is striking proof of the genuine vitality of its basic principles. Written by Hugo Preuss in 1923. Preuss was a liberal politician and member of the first two governments of the Weimar Republic. He was chiefly responsible for writing the Weimar Constitution.

0470/22 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED October/November 2022 © UCLES 2022 Page 2 of 14 Generic Marking Principles These general marking principles must be applied by all examiners when marking candidate answers. They should be applied alongside the specific content of the mark scheme or generic level descriptors for a question. Each question paper and mark scheme will also comply with these marking principles. GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 1: Marks must be awarded in line with: • the specific content of the mark scheme or the generic level descriptors for the question • the specific skills defined in the mark scheme or in the generic level descriptors for the question • the standard of response required by a candidate as exemplified by the standardisation scripts. GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 2: Marks awarded are always whole marks (not half marks, or other fractions). GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 3: Marks must be awarded positively: • marks are awarded for correct/valid answers, as defined in the mark scheme. However, credit is given for valid answers which go beyond the scope of the syllabus and mark scheme, referring to your Team Leader as appropriate • marks are awarded when candidates clearly demonstrate what they know and can do • marks are not deducted for errors • marks are not deducted for omissions • answers should only be judged on the quality of spelling, punctuation and grammar when these features are specifically assessed by the question as indicated by the mark scheme. The meaning, however, should be unambiguous. GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 4: Rules must be applied consistently, e.g. in situations where candidates have not followed instructions or in the application of generic level descriptors. GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 5: Marks should be awarded using the full range of marks defined in the mark scheme for the question (however; the use of the full mark range may be limited according to the quality of the candidate responses seen). GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 6: Marks awarded are based solely on the requirements as defined in the mark scheme. Marks should not be awarded with grade thresholds or grade descriptors in mind.
