In fact, you could make a compelling argument that World War I set the conditions that made World War II happen.
I wouldn't call it argument. I would call it fact. There is no World War II without World War I. The three main instigators of that conflict (Germany, Italy, and Japan) based all of their grievances on what happened in the aftermath of World War I.
Germany, a defeated party, was forced to take the brunt of the blame for the war and suffered economic hardships as a result. Italy and Japan, both members of the Entente, were promised territories for their efforts in the war but got the shaft at Versailles.

Eehhhh, I think the War in the Pacific was inevitable even if WWI didn't occur. Hirohoto was going to take the throne regardless, and he would have gone forward with his desires of conquering Asia and the Pacific.

Don't forget that the wronged party (Austria-Hungary, whose leader was assassinated by a Serbian national) and its allies were the ones who LOST the war.
