Ribbentrop was a very busy and very
important man until the Nazis were done talking with other nations
and just shot at them. There was not much demand for Ribbentrop's
diplomatic skills after the outbreak of
World War
II.
Ribbentrop was captured on June 14,
1945, and tried at the Nurnberg Trials. He was hanged on
October 16, 1946.
