Answer 1

the German army used to defile in what was called goose step, meaning that soldiers marched rising high their stiff legs and hitting hard the earth at every step. The effect was grandiose, indeed, an showed the German force and vitality. And the goose from the cartoon, having as many weapons as it could carry is the representative of the Germany itself, trying to impose what was called Pax Germanica - German peace - after conquered half of the Europe. Hardly to convince the others as long as it is marching with the same goose step, meaning militarization

Answer 2

The goose stepping through the streets of the Rhineland in Germany is heavily armed yet holds the Pax Germanica in its bill. Is this the peace that Germany offers? The Rhineland was held by victors (France) of the First World War as a repayment for all the damages France suffered during 1914-1918. Hitler and the Nazis reoccupied the Rhineland and were not punished by either France or Britain for doing so - no doubt they thought of their people who would not be willing to go to war again after only 15 years.



The German soldiers were trained to march in a fashion with the legs jutting out - called the "goose step." The lovely little child's rhyme is good propaganda!

Answer 3

It means the pre-WWII Nazis are on the march into the Rhineland, breaking the peace. Even Hitler understood that he wasn't strong enough to make it stick if anyone challenged him, but nobody did, so he took the Rhineland which had been detached from Germany by the Allies because it was the industrial center of the country. Afterwards, he continued to march into territories noisily but peacefully until finally invading Poland and starting World War II. The gunpcarrying goose refers to the goose-stepping Nazi soldiers; the goose step was a showy, formal marching step German soldiers used.

Answer 4

Goose - goose step as per Nazi soldiers.



Olive branch and 'pax Germanica' - irony as Nazi Germany said they came in peace but this was a lie.



Locarno (on ground) - a peace treaty the Germans breached.

Answer 5

Besides the obvious goose step reference, the basic idea is that Germany was pretending to be interested in peace, but was really getting ready for war.
