Unit 4 Powerpoint the U.S. Becomes a World Power
United States imperialism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries involved expanding overseas through annexing territories like Hawaii and building influence in Latin America and Asia. This was driven by notions of Manifest Destiny and bolstered by emerging American naval and economic power under presidents like Theodore Roosevelt. The Spanish-American War marked the U.S. emergence as a world power, gaining control of former Spanish colonies. However, Woodrow Wilson's calls for postwar peace and self-determination were only partly realized, and the U.S. returned to isolationism after World War I.
War of 1812
A 74 slide presentation about the War of 1812. Brief goes from the causes of the war from the end the American Revolution to Tippecanoe and ends with the Battle of New Orleans.
Causes of WWI (2007)
Long-term causes of WWI included nationalism, imperialism, industrialization and militarism in European nations which increased tensions. Short-term causes included a system of entangling alliances between European powers that pulled them into war. The assassination of Archduke Ferdinand triggered a series of diplomatic and military events, as countries honored their alliances, that led major European powers to declare war on each other and plunge the world into global conflict.
Events to US Entry
Prior to entering World War I, the United States maintained an official policy of neutrality, though it had closer economic ties to the Allied forces. As the war continued, tensions rose due to attacks on U.S. merchant ships by German U-boats and the publication of the Zimmerman Telegram. Public opinion began to shift in favor of entering the war, and in April 1917 President Wilson asked Congress for a declaration of war against Germany. U.S. involvement helped strengthen the Allies as Russia withdrew from the war, leaving the Western Front as Germany's sole battleground.

Here are some of the major territorial differences I see between maps of Europe in 1910 and 1919:
- The German, Austro-Hungarian, Ottoman, and Russian empires no longer exist in their previous forms. Germany and Austria-Hungary lost significant territory.
- New nation states were created from former imperial territories, including Poland, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and others.
- Germany lost territory to Belgium, Denmark, and France. Poland regained territory from Germany and Russia.
- The Ottoman Empire collapsed and the modern states of the Middle East were created from its former territories, including Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Jordan, Israel and Palestine.

More people died from the 1918-1920 Spanish Influenza pandemic than there were casulties as a result of the First World War. This world-wide epidemic caused by influenza viruses led to between 50 and 100 million deaths in 1918 and 1919 (as much as 1 of every 18 people).
Many researchers have suggested that the conditions of the war significantly aided the spread of the disease. And others have argued that the course of the war (and subsequent peace treaty) was influenced by the pandemic.

Weimar republic
The document summarizes the political and economic turmoil in Germany following World War 1 and the Treaty of Versailles. It discusses the harsh terms imposed by the treaty, including war reparations and territorial losses. This created deep resentment in Germany and damaged the economy. In the early 1920s, hyperinflation crippled the country. The Nazis attempted to seize power in 1923 with a failed coup in Munich. Later in the decade, Gustav Stresemann helped stabilize the economy but the Great Depression caused another economic collapse, fueling further political instability and rising support for the Nazis.
The Treaty of Versailles
The document provides an overview of the Treaty of Versailles, including the learning objectives and key points:
- The Big Three (Clemenceau of France, Lloyd George of Britain, and Wilson of the US) met at Versailles in 1919 to discuss a peace treaty with Germany. Their goals differed - France wanted to severely weaken Germany, Britain wanted a punished but not destroyed Germany, and Wilson wanted a fair treaty and League of Nations.
- The key terms imposed on Germany by the Treaty included loss of land, limits on military, reparations payments, and assigning sole responsibility for WWI. Germany was also required to join the League of Nations.
- There is debate around whether the Treaty was fair
Easter rising 1916
The document summarizes plans for the 1916 Easter Rising in Ireland. It describes how the Irish Volunteers and Citizen's Army planned an uprising to end British rule in Ireland and establish an independent republic. Their plans were disrupted when British intelligence intercepted a shipment of weapons from Germany. On Easter Monday 1916, the rebels went ahead and took over key locations in Dublin, reading the Easter Proclamation. After six days of fighting, the rebels surrendered to British forces. This led to hundreds of arrests and executions, turning the rebel leaders into martyrs and galvanizing Irish nationalism.
The schlieffen plan
The Schlieffen Plan was Germany's strategy for fighting a war on one front by quickly defeating France before Russia could fully mobilize. The plan involved invading Belgium to outflank French defenses on the shared border, but this violation of Belgian neutrality drew Britain into the war on the side of the Allies against Germany and Austria-Hungary.
Effects of the Great Depression
The Great Depression undermined international cooperation as countries became more self-interested and erected trade barriers in the form of tariffs. This rise in protectionism, along with increased nationalism in Germany, Italy, and Japan, resentment of colonial powers like Britain and France, and political instability contributed to social unrest and a rise in extremism. Democracies cut defense spending while authoritarian regimes increased spending on arms, weakening international stability.
Essay 1 origins of wwi
This document discusses Germany's role in starting World War 1. It provides evidence that Germany sought to become a world power like Britain and France through expanding its empire. Germany formed alliances with Austria-Hungary and Italy that increased tensions with Britain, France and Russia's alliance. While Germany took some actions to localize conflicts, it also encouraged Austria-Hungary to attack Serbia and had aggressive war aims to take land from France and Russia. The document analyzes that though other countries had roles, Germany's actions like the blank cheque and Schlieffen Plan make it largely responsible for provoking World War 1 to achieve its territorial goals.
HISTORY IGCSE CONTENT - 20TH CENTURY OPTION - USA CONTAINING COMMUNISM: VIETN...
The document discusses America's involvement in the Vietnam War. It provides background on the division of Vietnam following French rule, with a communist government in the North and a Western-aligned government in the South. It then discusses several reasons for increasing American involvement: preventing the spread of communism, fears of the domino effect, and reactions to events like the Gulf of Tonkin incident. The document also examines why America lost the war, including superior Viet Cong guerilla tactics and declining public support in the US as casualties mounted. Nixon eventually pursued a policy of withdrawing troops while strengthening South Vietnam's own forces in a strategy known as "Vietnamization."

Wwi causes
1) Several factors contributed to the outbreak of WWI, including rising nationalism across Europe, imperial competition exacerbated by industrialization, and increased militarism as countries engaged in an arms race.
2) The assassination of Archduke Ferdinand led Austria-Hungary to issue an ultimatum to Serbia, which refused, triggering a series of military mobilizations and declarations of war as alliances pulled more countries into the conflict.
3) Over four years of stalemated trench warfare ensued across Western Europe, resulting in over 10 million military deaths and over 20 million wounded, with new industrial weapons enabling unprecedented carnage.

The Spanish Influenza Pandemic 1918
The Spanish Influenza Pandemic of 1918 spread rapidly through modern transportation and military movements. It originated in China and was particularly deadly, with highest mortality rates among young adults. Entire villages were wiped out in some areas. Treatments involved closing public spaces and wearing masks. It's estimated the pandemic caused 50-100 million deaths worldwide and had lasting economic and social impacts.
1920s transition america notes
After World War I, America saw many transitions as it moved from a rural, agricultural society to a more urban, industrial one. There was a shift from isolationism to internationalism, as well as a transition from a cash economy to one fueled by consumer credit. Socially and culturally, the country struggled with clashes between rural, traditional conservatives and urban, liberal reformers over issues like prohibition, women's changing roles, and new social norms. While some embraced modern flappers and new opportunities, others reacted by trying to preserve older values and restrict immigration and dissent. Overall, the postwar period was one of significant change and conflict as America adjusted to its new place in the world.
HISTORY IGCSE CONTENT - 20TH CENTURY OPTION - USA CONTAINING COMMUNISM: THE K...
The document discusses the Korean War and the role of the United States in containing the spread of communism. It describes how Korea was divided along the 38th parallel after World War 2, with North Korea becoming communist and supported by Russia while South Korea had an anti-communist dictatorship backed by the US. In 1950, North Korea invaded South Korea which led to US involvement through the UN to stop the war, with the US playing the main role despite UN support. The war showed the risks of regional conflicts escalating and led the US to adopt a policy of containing communism rather than defeating it outright.
(7) the roaring twenties
The document provides an overview of several key events and trends in the United States during the 1920s. It describes the post-World War I recession, Red Scare, Palmer Raids, and Sacco and Vanzetti trial. It then summarizes the presidencies of Harding, Coolidge, and Hoover, their support of business and laissez-faire policies. Major factors in 1920s prosperity included the rise of the automobile industry, new mass production technologies, and the age of mass consumption fueled by advertising and consumer credit. However, prosperity was uneven and some groups like farmers and workers faced difficulties. The Temperance movement also led to Prohibition in 1919.
Unit 1 The Gilded Age
The document provides an overview of the Gilded Age in United States history from the 1870s to 1900. It describes how the era got its name, as the country experienced rapid industrialization and economic growth alongside high levels of poverty and corruption. Key aspects of the Gilded Age discussed include the rise of large industrialists, growing inequality between the wealthy and poor, immigration and urbanization, political machines that controlled local politics, and suffering among groups like Native Americans, African Americans, farmers, and women.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: ACHIEVEMENTS AND PROBLEMS DURING THE WEIMAR PERIOD
The document discusses Germany during the Weimar Period from 1923-1929. It describes how Germany experienced economic success during this time due to the leadership of Gustav Stresemann and assistance from Charles Dawes and the Dawes Plan. Stresemann organized a coalition government that stabilized the country and enacted currency reforms. The Dawes Plan and American loans rebuilt the German economy. However, Germany still faced political and economic challenges due to restrictions from the Treaty of Versailles and dependence on foreign aid.
World War 1
The document summarizes America's involvement in World War 1. It describes how the US initially pursued a policy of isolationism but was drawn into the war in 1917 after German U-boats sank American ships. Over 4 million American men were drafted and the US industrial base provided critical supplies and troops to Allied forces. America helped achieve victory over Germany through its military and economic contributions but failed to ratify the Treaty of Versailles, declining to join the League of Nations.
World war i timeline
The document outlines major events and timeline of World War I from 1914 to 1919, beginning with the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand which led Austria to declare war on Serbia and escalating conflicts between Allied and Central Powers over the next several years. It describes key battles on the Western and Eastern fronts, entry of the US into the war in 1917, and Germany's surrender in 1918 following new American troops. In 1919, the Treaty of Versailles conference was held to determine punishment for Germany and Central Powers.
Origins Of WWI
This document outlines the key causes of World War 1: militarism due to industrialization fueling arms races; a system of overlapping alliances that pulled countries into war; nationalism that increased tensions between countries; imperialism and competition for colonies; and the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary by a Serbian nationalist, which was the spark that ignited the war. Militarism, nationalism, imperialism and alliances each increased tensions in Europe, while the assassination provided the immediate trigger for the outbreak of hostilities between the allied countries.
