The disparity of the Great Depression led to a change in the political systems throughout Europe as Germany saw the rise of both the social democratic and fascist parties. Great Britain conveyed a shift in that the representative labor party became popular. In France, a shift is shown through how the communists, socialists, and radicals formed an alliance called the popular front, in fear of the growing strength of the fascists. Scandinavia's change is conveyed through the political success of the social democratic party that allowed workers and peasants to gain practical administration.
