Some would say 1935, with the invasion of Ethiopia. There's also a large body of historians who view WW1 and WW2 as being a single event. To sort of piggy-back off my above reply, the idea that WW2 "began" in 1939 is as Anglocentric as Americans thinking it started in 1941.

Supposedly, Foch said the WW1 Armistice wasn't peace, it was a 20 year truce.
