What impact did World War I and II have upon American government, economy, and society? How did attitudes towards what the government should/should not do change as a result of the wartime experience? How was American society and the economy (including race relations) transformed by the wartime experience? [Remember that the experience of WWI & WWII may not be the same in every case so be sure to note which war had the impact you are describing.] At the start of World War I, President Wilson…

League of Nations or ratified the Treaty of Versailles. Since Woodrow Wilson helped create the League of Nations and Treaty of Versailles to make his overall dream of peace around the world, his dream of making the world safe for a democracy never came true. In fact, about twenty years later another World War would begin. In the end, most of America’s goals were included in the post war settlement, but America itself chose to not participate in either the Treaty of Versailles or the League of…

Q8. Adolf Hitler was a dangerously strong dictator when he came to power in Germany. Hitler had made it his goal to get back all of the land that had been taken from Germany during the signing of the Versailles Peace Treaty. Throughout the very long list of revisions, there had been many territorial revisions. For example, the Polish Corridor, Austria, Czechoslovakia and the Sudetenland, and demilitarizing the Rhineland. Hitler made it his goal to gain back all of these territories. However,…

During this time many ultimatums were made between Germany, Britain, France, and Belgium. Germany had this idea of taking Paris in a matter of two weeks avoiding this Two Front War. Now Britain and Belgium had a treaty about Belgium’s neutrality. So in result, Britain asked France and Germany to respect this neutral act and France agreed but Germany ignored it. In this act, Britain created an ultimatum to go to war if Belgium was ever attacked. This war broke out…

World War I was proclaimed the “War to End All Wars.” This title was short lived, and within twenty-one years, Europe erupted into another World War. The Treaty of Versailles’s purpose was to carry out revenge rather than peace. This treaty played a significant role post-war discontent in both the Allied and Central Powers. The Articles of the Treaty of Versailles forced all blame on Germany: taking their land, money, and dignity. This dissatisfaction played a key role in later establishing…

The first cause for world war one (WW1) was the alliance system. The alliance system was when countries made treaties and formed alliance with other countries for protection and resources from one another. The reason that this was a cause for world war 1 was because leading up to the war there had formed to two major alliances the triple entente, England, Russia and France, and the triple alliance, Germany Austria-Hungary (A-H) and Italy. This meant that Europe in 1914 was basically divided in…

Foreign intervention played a major role in the Spanish Civil War. One of the main reasons why the Nationalists were victorious was because the foreign powers provided the them with weapons, soldiers, military advisers and economic support. On another note, the establishment of the Non-Intervention Committee, which was signed by Britain, France and the United States, banned international support for the Republicans. Therefore, the Nationalists gained an advantage over the Republics, due to the…

In the year of 1917, world war one in Europe had been going on for three years and America was not yet involved. President Woodrow Wilson was re-elected president using the campaign slogan "He Kept Us Out of War". Britain was calling for the United States to get involved in the war. Events such as the sinking of the RMS Lusitania and the Zimmerman Telegram helped convince Woodrow Wilson, with the help of events such as the Zimmermann Telegram and the sinking of the RMS Lusitania. Eventually, on…

United States was too young and fragile to become involved in foreign wars. Therefore, when Washington was asked to choose a side to support, he simply decided to stay neutral to prevent any unnecessary conflicts. However, he did sign a treaty, named Jay’s Treaty, with the British to make us their number one trading partners, but Washington didn’t feel this was choosing Britain over France. Contrastingly, John Adams ended up having…

World war 1 had a big impact on society. You may ask yourself, what caused world war 1. More importantly the factors that caused it. The growth and outpouring of nationalism in Europe in the 1800’s and early 1900’s is the overall cause of the first world war. It impacted most,if not all, of the causes of the war. I disagree that nationalism was what caused world war 1, because of the numerous amount of rules played during this time of world war 1. Nationalism led European nations compete…
