The Other Great Game: Britain vs The United States (1922-1941)

This video aims to be a short documentary charting the Anglo-American relationship during the inter-war era and early days of WWII. It looks at the competition between Washington and London over the new financial order of the world, the squabbling over reparations and wartime debts, and the failure to find a common solution to the rise of Germany in the 1930's. It then looks at the desperate situation Britain found itself in in 1940, and how the US acted both as a saviour and profiteer in the empire's struggle against the German Reich. #BritishEmpire, #USA, #WW2,
