MAIN IDEA
2. TAKING NOTES
In a chart like the one shown, list
the causes for the outbreak of
World War I.
Which was the most significant
cause? Explain your answer.
CRITICAL THINKING
3. SYNTHESIZING
Describe some ways in which
World War I threatened the lives
of civilians on both sides of
the Atlantic.
4. SUMMARIZING
Why were America’s ties with the
Allies stronger than its ties with the
Central Powers?
5. ANALYZING ISSUES
Why do you think Germany
escalated its U-boat attacks
in 1917? Think About:
• Germany’s military buildup
• the effects of the British
blockade
• Germany’s reason for using
submarine warfare
replaced with a representative government. Now supporters
of American entry into the war could claim that this was a
war of democracies against brutal monarchies.
AMERICA ACTS A light drizzle fell on Washington on
April 2, 1917, as senators, representatives, ambassadors,
members of the Supreme Court, and other guests crowd-
ed into the Capitol building to hear President Wilson
deliver his war resolution.
A PERSONAL VOICE WOODROW WILSON
“ Property can be paid for; the lives of peaceful and
innocent people cannot be. The present German submarine
warfare against commerce is a warfare against mankind.
. . . We are glad . . . to fight . . . for the ultimate peace of
the world and for the liberation of its peoples. . . . The
world must be made safe for democracy. . . . We have no
selfish ends to serve. We desire no conquest, no dominion.
We seek no indemnities. . . . It is a fearful thing to lead
this great peaceful people into war. . . . But the right is
more precious than peace.”
—quoted in American Voices
Congress passed the resolution a few days later. With
the hope of neutrality finally shattered, U.S. troops would
follow the stream of American money and munitions that
had been heading to the Allies throughout the war. But
Wilson’s plea to make the world “safe for democracy” wasn’t just political pos-
turing. Indeed, Wilson and many Americans truly believed that the United States
had to join the war to pave the way for a future order of peace and freedom. A
resolved but anxious nation held its breath as the United States prepared for war.

REVOLUTION IN RUSSIA
At first, the Russians surprised
the Germans by mobilizing rapid-
ly. Russian troops advanced
quickly into German territory but
were turned back at the Battle
of Tannenberg in August 1914.
Throughout 1915, the Russians
endured defeats and continued
to retreat. By the end of 1915
they had suffered about 2.5 mil-
lion casualties. The war also
caused massive bread shortages
in Russia.

Mexico did not officially enter World War I on either side. Mexico faced internal political instability and a civil war during World War I and remained neutral in the conflict between the Allied and Central Powers.
The document provides an overview of the key events and causes leading up to US involvement in World War 1. It discusses the four main causes of the war, the alliances between European powers, Germany's unrestricted submarine warfare that sank US ships, and key events like the Zimmerman Telegram that finally led the US to declare war on Germany in 1917. It also summarizes domestic policies like the Selective Service Act and Espionage Act passed in the US during this period.
The document provides background information on World War I, including its long term causes, key events, and conclusion. It discusses the alliances and nationalism that divided Europe prior to the war. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand sparked the initial conflict. American entry was spurred by German attacks on merchant ships carrying American passengers. New military technologies emerged and American troops engaged in major battles by 1918. An armistice in November 1918 ended the fighting, though the Treaty of Versailles formalized the peace the following year.
World War I began in 1914 and lasted until 1918. The major causes included imperialism, nationalism, militarism, and a system of alliances that divided Europe into two opposing sides. The war resulted in trench warfare and new military technologies. The U.S. initially remained neutral but entered the war in 1917 after German submarine attacks and the Zimmermann Telegram. After mobilizing over 4 million troops, American involvement helped the Allies defeat Germany in 1918. The Treaty of Versailles held Germany responsible for the war but its terms sowed resentment and instability in Europe.
The United States remained neutral for the first three years of World War I, though public opinion was divided. President Woodrow Wilson wanted to avoid foreign entanglements. While the US traded with both sides, trade with the Allies greatly increased between 1914 and 1917. Germany's resumption of unrestricted submarine warfare in early 1917 led to American ships being sunk, increasing anti-German sentiment. The intercepted Zimmerman Telegram, offering Mexico an alliance against the US if it entered the war, further angered Americans and contributed to the US declaring war on Germany in April 1917. The US mobilized over 4 million troops and sent around 2 million to Europe, though they relied initially on British and French supplies. American involvement boosted Allied morale and
World War I began in 1914 after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand by a Serbian nationalist. Major powers were pulled into the war through a system of alliances. The U.S. initially remained neutral but was drawn into the war in 1917 when Germany resumed unrestricted submarine warfare. Over 24 million American men registered for the draft after Congress passed the Selective Service Act. American troops began arriving in Europe in late 1917 and helped Allied forces push back German troops in 1918. An armistice was declared on November 11, 1918, ending the war.

The document discusses the role of the U.S. during World War I. Initially, President Wilson proclaimed neutrality. However, Germany's unrestricted submarine warfare threatened U.S. trade and lives. The intercepted Zimmerman Telegram also increased tensions. In April 1917, Wilson asked Congress to declare war to "make the world safe for democracy." The U.S. mobilized troops and supplies to support the Allies, who were struggling by 1918. American involvement helped shift the war in favor of the Allies, and Germany surrendered in November 1918.
The document discusses the sinking of the Lusitania by a German submarine in 1915 and the US response. It then discusses Germany's resumption of unrestricted submarine warfare in 1917 and the intercepted Zimmerman Telegram proposing a German-Mexican alliance against the US. The US entered WWI in 1917 in response to these events.
World War I began when Serbia assassinated the Archduke of Austria, leading Austria and Germany to form the Central Powers alliance against Russia, France, and Britain's Allied Powers. The US initially remained neutral, but its neutrality was tested as both sides interfered with American trade. Germany sank several US merchant vessels, angering American public opinion and leading the US to declare war in 1917. After the war, Woodrow Wilson's Fourteen Points and League of Nations proposal formed the basis of the Treaty of Versailles, but the US ultimately refused to join the League.
1) World War 1 began after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria by Serbian nationalists, dividing Europe into the Allied and Central Powers. 2) The US initially remained neutral though Germany angered Americans by sinking US merchant ships, including the Lusitania. 3) Germany's proposal of an alliance with Mexico against the US led President Wilson to declare war on Germany in April 1917.
World War 1 started in 1914 in Europe and the U.S. entered the war in 1917. The major causes of the war included militarism, the alliance system between European powers, imperialism, and nationalism. Trench warfare led to massive casualties with new weapons and stalemate on the Western Front. While the U.S. initially remained neutral, American entry was prompted by German attacks on merchant ships, the Zimmerman Telegram, and Germany resuming unrestricted submarine warfare against neutral nations.
1. The United States entered World War 1 in 1917 after Germany intensified its submarine warfare and announced unrestricted submarine warfare.
2. This caused the sinking of passenger ships like the Lusitania, which killed American citizens and turned American public opinion against Germany.
3. The final provocation was the Zimmerman Telegram, in which Germany proposed a military alliance with Mexico against the US if America entered the war.
World War I began in 1914 after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary by a Serbian nationalist. The US initially remained neutral under President Woodrow Wilson's leadership. However, Germany's unrestricted submarine warfare, which resulted in American deaths, led the US to enter the war in 1917. Over 2 million American troops were deployed to Europe. New military technologies like tanks and airplanes were introduced. Germany surrendered in November 1918 after a massive American attack. The Treaty of Versailles after the war was unpopular as it imposed harsh terms on Germany.
The document provides an overview of World War I and its causes from 1914-1920. It discusses the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand as the immediate cause but notes the underlying causes were imperialism, militarism, nationalism, and alliances. It then describes how the conflict expanded across Europe and the new modern warfare of trench stalemate and use of weapons like machine guns. America initially remained neutral but was drawn into the war in 1917 after attacks on U.S. shipping. The war ended with Wilson's 14 points being rejected and the punitive Treaty of Versailles imposed on Germany.
- World War I saw new deadly technologies like tanks, airplanes, machine guns, and poison gas that increased casualties over previous wars. Battles devolved into static trench warfare as both sides dug in.
- The area between trenches, known as "No Man's Land," was filled with barbed wire and craters from shelling. Massive battles resulted in thousands of casualties but moved front lines only slightly.
- America initially remained neutral but supported the Allies economically. Germany's unrestricted submarine warfare campaign against merchant ships, including the sinking of the Lusitania, turned American public opinion against them. The United States declared war on Germany in April 1917.
The First World War was caused by rising nationalism, imperialism, militarism, and a complex system of alliances that drew European powers into conflict. While the U.S. initially remained neutral, unrestricted German submarine warfare and the Zimmerman Telegram drew America into the war in 1917 on the side of the Allies. The addition of American troops and resources helped tip the balance in favor of the Allies, leading to the defeat of Germany and the signing of the Treaty of Versailles in 1919. However, the harsh treaty terms humiliated Germany and failed to achieve a lasting peace in Europe.
1) WWI began due to increasing tensions between imperial powers in Europe, particularly Germany and Britain. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand triggered Austria-Hungary to issue demands on Serbia, drawing allies on both sides into war.
2) The US initially remained neutral, but was drawn into the war by 1917 due to German submarine warfare, propaganda from Allied nations, and economic interests in Allied victory.
3) The Treaty of Versailles after WWI imposed harsh terms on Germany, including war guilt, military restrictions, and territorial losses. This contributed to economic instability and rise of the Nazi party in Germany in the following decades.
The document summarizes the key causes and events of World War 1:
Nationalism, imperialism, militarism, and the alliance system caused rising tensions in Europe. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand ignited war after Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia and the alliances pulled other nations into conflict. Over 4 years of brutal trench warfare ensued with new weapons and massive casualties, until American entry into the war in 1917 tipped the balance, and Germany surrendered on November 11, 1918, ending World War 1.

This document summarizes key events leading up to the United States entering World War 1 in 1917. It discusses Germany's policy of unrestricted submarine warfare, including the sinking of the Lusitania in 1915 which killed over 100 American citizens. It also covers the Zimmerman Telegram sent by Germany to Mexico proposing an alliance against the US if Mexico joined the war, which outraged American public opinion when it was publicized in 1917. As a result of these provocations, the United States declared war on Germany in April 1917.
The United States entered World War 1 due to growing anti-German sentiment influenced by historic ties to England, German policies like unrestricted submarine warfare that attacked American ships and killed American citizens, and American and British propaganda campaigns. German actions increasingly violated American neutrality and threatened American security, leading Congress to declare war on Germany in April 1917.
The Eastern Front of World War 1 saw highly mobile warfare but also immense loss of life, with over 2.5 million Russian soldiers killed, captured, or wounded by 1915. Germany and Austria-Hungary were later joined by Bulgaria in attacking and eliminating Serbia from the war in late 1915. The Russian Revolution in 1917 and the subsequent Treaty of Brest-Litovsk signed by Vladimir Lenin removed Russia from fighting as a combatant nation, granting territory to the Central Powers.
The document summarizes the key causes and events of World War 1. It discusses the long-term causes like nationalism, imperialism, and militarism that divided Europe into allied camps. The immediate spark was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in 1914. America initially remained neutral but was drawn into the war in 1917 after German U-boats sank American ships and the Zimmerman Telegram was intercepted. With fresh American troops arriving in 1918, the Allied forces gained the upper hand and Germany surrendered in November 1918, ending World War 1.
The document provides background information on World War I, including long term causes such as nationalism, imperialism, and militarism which led European powers to build up their armed forces and form alliances that pulled them into war. It discusses key events that sparked the war such as the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand and how Germany's invasion of Belgium drew other European countries into the war. The document also examines how new military technologies and America's entry into the war in 1917 helped bring about an Allied victory.
World War 1 began in 1914 after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand and escalated due to rising tensions between powerful alliances. Germany launched attacks through Belgium but was stopped by Allied forces. The U.S. initially remained neutral but entered the war in 1917 after German submarine attacks. An armistice in 1918 ended the war, leading to the harsh Treaty of Versailles that imposed penalties on Germany and contributed to renewed tensions.
The document summarizes the United States' involvement in World War I. It began with the US maintaining neutrality due to no vital interests being threatened. However, attacks by German U-boats on American ships, including the sinking of the Lusitania that killed Americans, increased tensions. President Wilson asked Congress to declare war on Germany in 1917 after it resumed unrestricted submarine warfare. Over 4 million American troops were deployed as part of the American Expeditionary Forces, which helped boost Allied morale and turn the tide of the war through fresh troops arriving on the Western Front in 1918.

From your historical person’s perspective, provide a thorough summary of the person or event you’ve chosen to write about, including the incidents that took place and any key individuals involved or affected.
Address the general importance of the person or event in the context of U.S. history.
Now, explain specifically how the person or event changed “your” daily life—“you” being the historical persona you have adopted.
Think long-term: How will the person or the event you are describing make a long-term impact in the lives of people who are in the under-represented group to which your historical person/perspective belongs?
Paper Requirements:
Your paper must be four to six pages, not including the required references and title pages.
Use at least five sources, not including the textbook. Include a scholarly journal article. Include at least one
primary
source from those identified in the syllabus.
Definition of a Primary Source
: A primary source is any source, document or artifact that was created at the time of the event. It was usually created by someone who witnessed the event, lived during or even shortly afterwards, or somehow would have first-hand knowledge of that event. A secondary source, by contrast, is written by a historian or someone writing about the event after it happened.
Have an introduction and strong thesis statement. Make use of support and examples supporting your thesis
Finish with a forceful conclusion reiterating your main idea.

For this paper, discuss the similarities and differences of the impacts of the causes of the 2008 Great Recession and the current world crisis with the CoVID-19 virus*
How did the regulations you've studied over the past few chapters and in the Financial Crisis Chapter (Chapter 12) prepare banks and other financial institutions to better weather the effects of the stay-at-home orders and other impacts of the pandemic? Are there other regulations that could be placed on the banking industry that would make sense and help them through these trying times?
*Note: I am not trying to downplay or minimize in any way the "human" impact or any other non-economic impacts of the virus; this paper is just focusing on one component of the costs, among the many different impacts (perhaps much more important impacts)

The document asks the student to discuss the similarities and differences between the impacts of the causes of the 2008 Great Recession and the current CoVID-19 crisis. It prompts the student to consider how banking regulations studied in previous chapters prepared financial institutions for the pandemic's effects and whether additional regulations could help the banking industry weather challenging times. The document notes that the focus is solely on the economic impacts of the virus, not minimizing its human and other non-economic costs.
For this paper choose two mythological narratives that we have exami.docxevonnehoggarth79783
For this paper choose two mythological narratives that we have examined so far in this course, or that you are otherwise personally familiar with. The two myths that you choose should have one or more elements in common, possibly including (but not limited to):
Overarching story (e.g., creation, flood) or story elements (e.g., descent into the underworld, establishment of divine rulership, rapture of mortals by gods, divine disguise)
Narrative structure (e.g., repetitive patterns, discursion)
Themes (e.g., love, jealousy, mortality, revenge, mutability/transformation, limits of human power/knowledge)
Characters (e.g., tricksters)
Cultural functions (e.g., reinforcement of societal norms, explanation of origins of society, explanation of natural phenomena, incorporation in ritual practices, entertainment)
Compare and contrast the two myths you choose, taking into consideration the various elements noted above and any others you deem relevant. (In making comparisons, you do not necessarily need to apply the specifically "comparativist" approach discussed in the course as one historical strand of mythological analysis.)
While you are welcome to reference external sources, this is not a research paper and the use of secondary sources is not required or expected. If you choose to examine a myth not discussed in the course, however, please indicate the source from which you have taken this.

1. Some common stereotypes that coincide with the LGBTQ community are promiscuous, non-religious, flamboyant, mentally ill, high sex drives, etc.
2. The media plays a role in establishing these stereotypes because the general public is always watching these shows, reading the news, and listening to stories about different cultures and groups and media that they may not see or interact with in their lives. Therefore, media is an outlet to show these things in a easy way to gain knowledge about people without meeting people face-to-face apart of these groups when sometimes the stereotypes shown can't represent everyone in those groups.
3. Currently, in Marvel's Runaways, that ended in December, there are two lesbian superheros that share a kiss at the end of a season. Karolina, one of the characters, wants to get away from her childhood of religious upbringing and wants to pursue her own life with her superpower of glowing colors. Nico is shown with a Gothic appearance and can be seen as aggressive but down to earth as well. The War at Home was a television show on Fox and a character named Kenny, who is sixteen years old, is kicked out of his house by his parents after finding out he is gay.
a. There are some differences in the characters as Karolina is more flamboyant and colorful, compared to Nico who is goth and likes to remain strictly to business. Kenny is quiet most of the time about his life, especially about his gay crush until his p.

This is the Case Study I chose:
Martin is a 21 year-old business major at a large university. Over the past few weeks his family and friends have noticed increasingly bizarre behaviors. On many occasions they’ve overheard him whispering in an agitated voice, even though there is no one nearby. Lately, he has refused to answer or make calls on his cell phone, claiming that if he does it will activate a deadly chip that was implanted in his brain by evil aliens. His parents have tried to get him to go with them to a psychiatrist for an evaluation, but he refuses. He has accused them on several occasions of conspiring with the aliens to have him killed so they can remove his brain and put it inside one of their own. He has stopped attended classes altogether. He is now so far behind in his coursework that he will fail if something doesn’t change very soon. Although Martin occasionally has a few beers with his friends, he’s never been known to abuse alcohol or use drugs. He does, however, have an estranged aunt who has been in and out of psychiatric hospitals over the years due to erratic and bizarre behavior.
The Psychological disorder is: SCHIZOPHRENIA

For this assignment, you will discuss how you see the Design Principles used in a 2D print. You can select a 2D print from your home, workplace, or use the CSU Art Appreciation LibGuide to find a print in an online museum. Take a photograph of the print or save an image of the print, and include it in the worksheet.In Unit II, our assignment was to describe an artwork using the Visual Elements. We can think of the Design Principles as a way that the artist organized the Visual Elements. Instead of focusing on the small parts of the artwork (like line, shape, and mass) the Design Principles look at the whole artwork and how all the elements work together. Provide a detailed description of the design principles in your 2D print, using full and complete sentences. For Design Principles, make sure you describe how the artist used the ones in Chapter 5: unity and variety, balance, emphasis, repetition and rhythm, and scale and proportion. Questions to consider are included below:
Unity: what elements work together to make a harmonious whole?
Variety: What creates diversity?
Balance: Is it symmetrical or asymmetrical?
Emphasis: What is the focal point?
Repetition and rhythm: Is an element repeated?
Scale and proportion: Are the objects in proportion to each other?
Be sure to describe exactly where in the artwork you see each Principle. You'll want to describe each artwork using the terms we learned in this unit's reading. Remember to write in complete sentences and use proper grammar.

of American entry into the war could claim that this was a
war of democracies against brutal monarchies.
AMERICA ACTS A light drizzle fell on Washington on
April 2, 1917, as senators, representatives, ambassadors,
members of the Supreme Court, and other guests crowd-
ed into the Capitol building to hear President Wilson
deliver his war resolution.
A PERSONAL VOICE WOODROW WILSON
“ Property can be paid for; the lives of peaceful and
innocent people cannot be. The present German submarine
warfare against commerce is a warfare against mankind.
. . . We are glad . . . to fight . . . for the ultimate peace of
the world and for the liberation of its peoples. . . . The
world must be made safe for democracy. . . . We have no
4. selfish ends to serve. We desire no conquest, no dominion.
We seek no indemnities. . . . It is a fearful thing to lead
this great peaceful people into war. . . . But the right is
more precious than peace.”
—quoted in American Voices
Congress passed the resolution a few days later. With
the hope of neutrality finally shattered, U.S. troops would
follow the stream of American money and munitions that
had been heading to the Allies throughout the war. But
Wilson’s plea to make the world “safe for democracy” wasn’t
just political pos-
turing. Indeed, Wilson and many Americans truly believed that
the United States
had to join the war to pave the way for a future order of peace
and freedom. A
resolved but anxious nation held its breath as the United States
prepared for war.

REVOLUTION IN RUSSIA
5. At first, the Russians surprised
the Germans by mobilizing rapid-
ly. Russian troops advanced
quickly into German territory but
were turned back at the Battle
of Tannenberg in August 1914.
Throughout 1915, the Russians
endured defeats and continued
to retreat. By the end of 1915
they had suffered about 2.5 mil-
lion casualties. The war also
caused massive bread shortages
in Russia.
Revolutionaries ousted the czar
in March 1917 and established
a provisional government. In
November, the Bolsheviks, led by
Lenin and Trotsky, overthrew the
6. provisional government. They set
up a Communist state and sought
peace with the Central Powers.
Causes of WWI
Despite this provocation, President Wilson ruled out a military
response in
favor of a sharp protest to Germany. Three months later, in
August 1915, a U-boat
sank another British liner, the Arabic, drowning two Americans.
Again the United
States protested, and this time Germany agreed not to sink any
more passenger
ships. But in March 1916 Germany broke its promise and
torpedoed an unarmed
French passenger steamer, the Sussex. The Sussex sank, and
about 80 passengers,
including Americans, were killed or injured. Once again the
United States warned
that it would break off diplomatic relations unless Germany
changed its tactics.
7. Again Germany agreed, but there was a condition: if the United
States could not
persuade Britain to lift its blockade against food and fertilizers,
Germany would
consider renewing unrestricted submarine warfare.
THE 1916 ELECTION In November 1916 came the U.S.
presidential election.
The Democrats renominated Wilson, and the Republicans
nominated Supreme
Court Justice Charles Evans Hughes. Wilson campaigned on the
slogan “He
Kept Us Out of War.” Hughes pledged to uphold America’s
right to freedom
of the seas but also promised not to be too severe on Germany.
The election returns shifted from hour to hour. In fact, Hughes
went
to bed believing he had been elected. When a reporter tried to
reach him
with the news of Wilson’s victory, an aide said, “The president
can’t be
disturbed.” “Well,” replied the reporter, “when he wakes up, tell
him
he’s no longer president.”
8. The United States Declares War
After the election, Wilson tried to mediate between the warring
alliances. The
attempt failed. In a speech before the Senate in January 1917,
the president called
for “a peace without victory. . . . a peace between equals,” in
which neither side
would impose harsh terms on the other. Wilson hoped that all
nations would join
in a “league for peace” that would work to extend democracy,
maintain freedom of
the seas, and reduce armaments.
GERMAN PROVOCATION The Germans ignored Wilson’s
calls for peace.
Germany’s leaders hoped to defeat Britain by resuming
unrestricted submarine war-
fare. On January 31 the kaiser announced that U-boats would
sink all ships in
British waters—hostile or neutral—on sight. Wilson was
stunned. The German deci-
sion meant that the United States would have to go to war.
However, the president
held back, saying that he would wait for “actual overt acts”
before declaring war.
9. The overt acts came. First was the
Zimmermann note, a telegram from
the German foreign minister to the
German ambassador in Mexico that was
intercepted by British agents. The
telegram proposed an alliance between
Mexico and Germany and promised
that if war with the United States broke
out, Germany would support Mexico in
recovering “lost territory in Texas, New
Mexico, and Arizona.” Next came the
sinking of four unarmed American mer-
chant ships, with a loss of 36 lives.
Finally, events in Russia removed
the last significant obstacle to direct
U.S. involvement in the war. In March,
the oppressive Russian monarchy was

The War Hits Home
Although the majority of Americans favored victory for the
Allies rather
than the Central Powers, they did not want to join the Allies’
fight. By
1917, however, America had mobilized for war against the
Central Powers
for two reasons: to ensure Allied repayment of debts to the
United States
and to prevent the Germans from threatening U.S. shipping.
THE BRITISH BLOCKADE As fighting on land continued,
Britain began to
make more use of its naval strength. It blockaded the German
coast to pre-
vent weapons and other military supplies from getting through.
However,
the British expanded the definition of contraband to include
food. They also
extended the blockade to neutral ports and mined the entire
North Sea.
14. The results were two fold. First, American ships carrying goods
for
Germany refused to challenge the blockade and seldom reached
their desti-
nation. Second, Germany found it increasingly difficult to
import foodstuffs
and fertilizers for crops. By 1917, famine stalked the country.
An estimated
750,000 Germans starved to death as a result of the British
blockade.
Americans had been angry at Britain’s blockade, which
threatened
freedom of the seas and prevented American goods from
reaching German
ports. However, Germany’s response to the blockade soon
outraged
American public opinion.
GERMAN U–BOAT RESPONSE Germany responded to the
British
blockade with a counterblockade by U-boats (from
Unterseeboot, the
German word for a submarine). Any British or Allied ship found
in the
15. waters around Britain would be sunk—and it would not always
be possi-
ble to warn crews and passengers of an attack.
One of the worst disasters occurred on May 7, 1915, when a U-
boat sank the
British liner Lusitania (lLQsG-tAPnC-E) off the southern coast
of Ireland. Of the
1,198 persons lost, 128 were Americans. The Germans defended
their action on
the grounds that the liner carried ammunition. Despite
Germany’s explanation,
Americans became outraged with Germany because of the loss
of life. American
public opinion turned against Germany and the Central Powers.
A newspaper ad
for the Lusitania
included a
warning from the
German Embassy.

16. Americans Question Neutrality
In 1914, most Americans saw no reason to join a struggle 3,000
miles away. The
war did not threaten American lives or property. This does not
mean, however,
that individual Americans were indifferent to who would
win the war. Public opinion was strong—but divided.
DIVIDED LOYALTIES Socialists criticized the war as a capi-
talist and imperialist struggle between Germany and England
to control markets and colonies in China, Africa, and the
Middle East. Pacifists, such as lawyer and politician William
Jennings Bryan, believed that war was evil and that the
United States should set an example of peace to the world.
Many Americans simply did not want their sons to expe-
rience the horrors of warfare, as a hit song of 1915 conveyed.
“ I didn’t raise my boy to be a soldier,
I brought him up to be my pride and joy.
Who dares to place a musket on his shoulder,
17. To shoot some other mother’s darling boy?”
Millions of naturalized U.S. citizens followed the war
closely because they still had ties to the nations from which
they had emigrated. For example, many Americans of
German descent sympathized with Germany. Americans of
Irish descent remembered the centuries of British oppres-
sion in Ireland and saw the war as a chance for Ireland to
gain its independence.
On the other hand, many Americans felt close to
Britain because of a common ancestry and language as well
as similar democratic institutions and legal systems.
Germany’s aggressive sweep through Belgium increased
American sympathy for the Allies. The Germans attacked
civilians, destroying villages, cathedrals,
libraries, and even hospitals. Some atrocity
stories—spread by British propaganda—
later proved to be false, but enough proved
true that one American magazine referred
18. to Germany as “the bully of Europe.”
More important, America’s economic
ties with the Allies were far stronger than
its ties with the Central Powers. Before the
war, American trade with Britain and
France was more than double its trade with
Germany. During the first two years of the
war, America’s transatlantic trade became
even more lopsided, as the Allies flooded
American manufacturers with orders for all
sorts of war supplies, including dynamite,
cannon powder, submarines, copper wire
and tubing, and armored cars. The United
States shipped millions of dollars of war
supplies to the Allies, but requests kept
coming. By 1915, the United States was
experiencing a labor shortage.

20. Maintaining neutrality proved diffi-

Trade with Germany became
increasingly risky. Shipments were
often stopped by the British block-
ade. In addition, President Wilson
and others spoke out against
German atrocities and warned of
the threat that the German Empire
posed to democracy.
From 1912 to 1917, U.S. trade
relationships with European coun-
tries shifted dramatically. From
1914 on, trade with the Allies
quadrupled, while trade with
Germany fell to near zero.
Also, by 1917, American banks
had loaned $2.3 billion to the
21. Allies, but only $27 million to the
Central Powers. Many U.S. lead-
ers, including Treasury Secretary
William McAdoo, felt that American
prosperity depended upon an
Allied victory. (See trade on page

Unable to save Belgium, the Allies retreated to the Marne River
in France,
where they halted the German advance in September 1914. After
struggling to
outflank each other’s armies, both sides dug in for a long siege.
By the spring of
1915, two parallel systems of deep, rat-infested trenches
23. crossed France from the
Belgian coast to the Swiss Alps. German soldiers occupied one
set of trenches,
Allied soldiers the other. There were three main kinds of
trenches—front line, sup-
port, and reserve. Soldiers spent a period of time in each kind of
trench. Dugouts,
or underground rooms, were used as officers’ quarters and
command posts.
Between the trench complexes lay “no man’s land”—a barren
expanse of mud
pockmarked with shell craters and filled with barbed wire.
Periodically, the sol-
diers charged enemy lines, only to be mowed down by machine
gun fire.
The scale of slaughter was horrific. During the First Battle of
the Somme—
which began on July 1, 1916, and lasted until mid-November—
the British suf-
fered 60,000 casualties the first day alone. Final casualties
totaled about 1.2 mil-
lion, yet only about seven miles of ground changed hands. This
bloody trench
warfare, in which armies fought for mere yards of ground,
24. continued for over
three years. Elsewhere, the fighting was just as devastating and
inconclusive.

Allied forces defeated in bid to
36. establish a supply route to Russia.
Germany and Austria-Hungary, together with the Ottoman
Empire—an empire of
mostly Middle Eastern lands controlled by the Turks—were
later known as the
Central Powers. The alliances provided a measure of
international security
because nations were reluctant to disturb the balance of power.
As it turned out,
a spark set off a major conflict.
An Assassination Leads to War
That spark flared in the Balkan Peninsula, which was known as
“the powder keg
of Europe.” In addition to the ethnic rivalries among the Balkan
peoples, Europe’s
leading powers had interests there. Russia wanted access to the
Mediterranean
Sea. Germany wanted a rail link to the Ottoman Empire.
Austria-Hungary, which
had taken control of Bosnia in 1878, accused Serbia of
subverting its rule over
37. Bosnia. The “powder keg” was ready to explode.
In June 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand, heir to
the Austrian throne, visited the Bosnian capital Sarajevo. As
the royal entourage drove through the city, Serbian nation-
alist Gavrilo Princip stepped from the crowd and shot the
Archduke and his wife Sophie. Princip was a member of the
Black Hand, an organization promoting Serbian national-
ism. The assassinations touched off a diplomatic crisis. On
July 28, Austria-Hungary declared what was expected to be a
short war against Serbia.
The alliance system pulled one nation after another into
the conflict. On August 1, Germany, obligated by treaty
to support Austria-Hungary, declared war on Russia. On
August 3, Germany declared war on Russia’s ally France. After
Germany invaded Belgium, Britain declared war on Germany
and Austria-Hungary. The Great War had begun.
The Fighting Starts
On August 3, 1914, Germany invaded Belgium, following
38. a strategy known as the Schlieffen Plan. This plan called
for a holding action against Russia, combined with a quick
drive through Belgium to Paris; after France had fallen, the
two German armies would defeat Russia. As German
troops swept across Belgium, thousands of civilians fled in
terror. In Brussels, the Belgian capital, an American war
correspondent described the first major refugee crisis of
the 20th century.

Into these they had thrown mattresses, or bundles of
grain, and heaped upon them were families of three
generations. Old men in blue smocks, white-haired and

that was left to them, all that they could stuff into a pil-
low-case or flour-sack. . . . Heart-broken, weary, hungry,
they passed in an unending caravan.”

CRISIS IN THE BALKANS
After World War I, Bosnia became
par t of a countr y that eventually
became known as Yugoslavia.
Although Yugoslavia included vari-
ous religious and ethnic groups,
the government was dominated
by Serbs.
In 1991, Yugoslavia broke apart,
and Bosnia declared indepen-
dence in 1992. However, Serbs
wanted Bosnia to remain part of
Serbian-controlled Yugoslavia.
A bloody civil war broke out.
40. This war became notorious for
the mass murder and deportation
of Bosnian Muslims, a process
known as “ethnic cleansing.” In
1995, the United States helped
negotiate a cease-fire.
But peace in the Balkans did
not last. In the late 1990s,
Albanians in the province of
Kosovo also tried to break away
from Serbia. Serbia’s violent
response, which included the
“ethnic cleansing” of Albanians,
prompted NATO to inter vene.
Today, peacekeepers in the
Balkans struggle to control the
continuing ethnic violence.

42. A
NATIONALISM Throughout the 19th century, politics in the
Western world were
deeply influenced by the concept of nationalism—a devotion to
the interests
and culture of one’s nation. Often, nationalism led to
competitive and antago-
nistic rivalries among nations. In this atmosphere of
competition, many feared
Germany’s growing power in Europe.
In addition, various ethnic groups resented domination by others
and longed
for their nations to become independent. Many ethnic groups
looked to larger
nations for protection. Russia regarded itself as the protector of
Europe’s Slavic
peoples, no matter which government they lived under. Among
these Slavic peo-
ples were the Serbs. Serbia, located in the Balkans, was an
independent nation,
but millions of ethnic Serbs lived under the rule of Austria-
Hungary. As a result,
43. Russia and Austria-Hungary were rivals for influence over
Serbia.
IMPERIALISM For many centuries, European nations had been
building
empires, slowly extending their economic and political control
over various peo-
ples of the world. Colonies supplied the European imperial
powers with raw mat-
erials and provided markets for manufactured goods. As
Germany industrialized,
it competed with France and Britain in the contest for colonies.
MILITARISM Empires were expensive to build and to defend.
The growth of
nationalism and imperialism led to increased military spending.
Because each
nation wanted stronger armed forces than those of any potential
enemy, the
imperial powers followed a policy of militarism—the
development of armed
forces and their use as a tool of diplomacy.
By 1890 the strongest nation on the European continent was
Germany, which
had set up an army reserve system that drafted and trained
44. young men. Britain was
not initially alarmed by Germany’s military expansion. As an
island nation, Britain
had always relied on its navy for defense and protection of its
shipping routes—
and the British navy was the strongest in the world. However, in
1897, Wilhelm II,
Germany’s kaiser, or emperor, decided that his nation should
also become a major
sea power in order to compete more successfully against the
British. Soon British
and German shipyards competed to build the largest battleships
and destroyers.
France, Italy, Japan, and the United States quickly joined the
naval arms race.
ALLIANCE SYSTEM By 1907 there were two major defense
alliances in Europe.
The Triple Entente, later known as the Allies, consisted of
France, Britain, and
Russia. The Triple Alliance consisted of Germany, Austria-
Hungary, and Italy.

WHY IT MATTERS NOWWHY IT MATTERS NOW
It was about 1:00 A.M. on April 6, 1917, and the members of
the U.S.
House of Representatives were tired. For the past 15 hours they
had
been debating President Wilson’s request for a declaration of
war
against Germany. There was a breathless hush as Jeannette
Rankin of Montana, the first woman elected to Congress, stood
up. Rankin declared, “I want to stand by my country but I can-
not vote for war. I vote no.” Later she reflected on her action.
A PERSONAL VOICE JEANNETTE RANKIN
“ I believe that the first vote I cast was the most significant vote
48. and a most significant act on the part of women, because women
are going to have to stop war. I felt at the time that the first
woman
[in Congress] should take the first stand, that the first time the
first
woman had a chance to say no to war she should say it.”
—quoted in Jeannette Rankin: First Lady in Congress
After much debate as to whether the United States should join
the fight,
Congress voted in favor of U.S. entry into World War I. With
this decision,
the government abandoned the neutrality that America had
maintained for
three years. What made the United States change its policy in
1917?
Causes of World War I
Although many Americans wanted to stay out of the war,
several factors made
American neutrality difficult to maintain. As an industrial and
imperial power,
the United States felt many of the same pressures that had led
the nations of
49. Europe into devastating warfare. Historians generally cite four
long-term causes of
the First World War: nationalism, imperialism, militarism, and
the formation of a
system of alliances.
Jeannette Rankin was
the only member of the
House to vote against
the U.S. entering both
World War I and World
