Because Germany was left with a destroyed economy after the Treaty of Versailles (spelling?). WW1 didnt start as an act to conquer Europe. All the nations involved were drawn in because of alliances. Do you honestly think France, Britain, and Germany really care about the Austrian Archduke Francis Ferdinand being assasinated by a Serbian?
Wow. That has nothing to do with anything. Germany wanted to conquer mainland Europe, just like Napoleon had wanted to, and were beginning to succeed until we stepped in.
My Hitler refrerence was assuming that the Allied powers had defeated the Central powers, obviously.
