How was the World Depression in the 1930s a threat to international peace?

So for History class we were divided into a few groups and each group got a question. My group’s question was:

How was the world depression in the 1930s a threat to international peace? Describe Manchuria during 1931-33 and Abyssinia during 1935-36.

I’ve found a few good sources for Manchuria/Abyssinia, but I need help with the first part of the question. Please include your sources.

The Depression caused anger and resentment amongst people through out the world. With promises of glory and returns to economic prosperity, fascist leaders such as Hitler and Mussolini gained power and began military campaigns. This includes Japan’s invasion of Manchuria and Italy’s conflicts in Abyssinia (Ethiopia). The depression led to strong feelings of regaining national pride which eventually led to World War II.
