Allies

A Day In the Woods I am usually not very excited about doing homework, but today, at least most of it would not be that bad. As soon as we got off the bus at Ally's stop we got the dog, whose name was Izzy and started walking to Garnsey Road Arboretum. We sprinted down to the trail as Izzy was pulling us. As I stepped on the trail, I wondered how long this was going to take. It was a beautiful fall afternoon with a bright blue sky and lots of sunshine. I breathed in the fresh smell of the…

Germany is not responsible for the outbreak of World War One. Germany was only supporting our ally just like Russia was with Serbia. At this point when the war broke out, many countries knew the war was inevitable. The treaty of Versaille forced us to take blame as we were the last standing central power because Austria-Hungary had fallen. As for the letters where it says, the kaiser supports the war effort that was between two austrian diplomats so there is no solid evidence that the kaiser…

The Dieppe Raid had several factors which led to its failure and cost many soldiers' lives including numerous Canadians. Many mistakes were made throughout the raid, which allowed the allies to gain knowledge of things to not do in the future. One of the main factors of the Dieppe disaster was that the whole raid was not fully nor properly planned. An event which was badly planned was the departure to Dieppe. The ships were to leave before dawn, where it is dark and the enemy would not be able…

the atomic bomb is seen as a controversial issue because people differentiate on the secrecy, humanity, and necessity in its use. The united states was justified in its use of the atomic bomb, but did have options avoiding secrecy among our Russian allies, or could have gone with more humane plans proposed that would also have won America the war. The…

One way that they repeated each other is that they were both fought using the alliance system. This is the main reason that the two wars were “world wars”; because if one country is an ally to another country and that ally goes to war, that country is also obligated to go to war. For instance, in World War 1 there were two major alliances: the Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy (the Central Powers or Triple Alliance) and Great Britain, Russia, and France…

countries were skeptical of being able to win in a long-term battle with the Viet Cong. Logevall also claims that some of the allies of America refrained from stopping America. “while the French government of Charles de Gaulle forcefully disputed the administration 's position at every turn, the more important ally refrained from doing so.”5 He believes that if other allies had spoken up the war could have been avoidable. Logevall offers some other evidence, but these are his main…

Nurtured on the tribute of vassal states in the Aegean, Athens did not mothball its triremes; instead, they became a “benign” police force of sorts for its Greek subject allies overseas. Like the Spartans, imperial Athens too saw little need to limit warfare to a single afternoon, or indeed, given the success of its evacuation before Xerxes and subsequent naval response, to risk at all its hoplites in defense of the farmland…

them to fight alongside their allies instead of single-handedly fighting enemy countries. Russia, being an ally of Serbia, and Germany, an ally of Austria-Hungary, are forced to join the war due to their alliances and treaties with the two countries. Their agreements allowed Serbia and Austria-Hungary to have more numbers, strength, and support to fight each other than without. As Germany advances to strike other countries, those nations are forced to join the Allies to defend themselves against…

1944. This was known as D-Day. It was one of the most notable days throughout all of World War Two. Setting the stage for the Allied push to end the war once and for all. By 1943, the balance of World War Two was shifting toward the side of the allies. They had won crucial battles in Africa, driving out the Nazi occupiers. Also. Benito Mussolini, the dictator of the Axis power of Italy had been overthrown and killed on April 28th, 1945. The…

The phrase when defense pacts are invoked is used instead of if invoked because given the ongoing territory disputes the Philippines has with China it is only a matter of time before armed conflict arises. For years Philippines has engaged in dispute with China over the Spratlys Islands (comprised of small islands, reefs, atolls and rocks). Portions of the Spratly Islands have been claimed by The People’s Republic of China (PRC), The Republic of China (ROC/Taiwan), The Philippines, Vietnam,…
