In the past, there have been many wars over land and resources. But the invasion of Germany in Belgium in 1914 was over something more unusual. Germany wanted a better position to attack France in the future so they need Belgium as an advantage. Germany used many tactics to invade Belgium.

First, Germany sent a ultimatum to Belgium demanding passage into the country on August 2, 1914.…

Science and society are currently positioned at a very advanced pace. The past twenty-five years have exploded into a heavy load of electronics pushed around the world. Yet, this has been hindered in quite a number of ways. For example, when the Turks conquered the Eastern Roman Empire, all of Europe fell into a Dark Ages. These Dark Ages were a crucial period where all science and knowledge was lost. Europeans’ knowledge of the great past was forgotten and Europe eventually recovered hundreds…

Causes of WW1 There were many leading causes that triggered WW1. WW1 took place between the times of 1914-1918. It included 9 different countries and had 2 alliances.

World War I began on July 28, 1914, when Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia. This seemingly small conflict between two countries spread rapidly: soon, Germany, Russia, Great Britain, and France were all drawn into the war, largely because they were involved in treaties that obligated them to defend certain other nations.

Three of the main causes of World War II in Europe were the Treaty of Versailles, The Great Depression and The Policy of Appeasement. All had a significant amount in starting the war.

The three ways that the Treaty of Versailles effected Germany can be put into the social science perspectives which are geographical, political, and economical.

Germany is not the primary country chargeable for the war. Although Germany may have played a significant role within the war as part of the central powers, Austria Hungary is the country most responsible for the commencement of World War 1.

First and foremost, I would…

However, what changed was the ways in which countries like France and England dealt Germany. Since its…
