Women of Canada and Britain played a very important part in World War 1 and 2. They had to take over many jobs that men had to leave in order to go fight in the war. Women were very eager to join the army and serve their country but propaganda from the government made the difference in how many women joined. Women back home wanted a heroine role during World War 2 and working for the army was an excellent way to meet that goal. The poster I chose has the caption “they serve – that men can fly.”…

World War I was the sacrifice of millions of lives to fulfill each nation’s national interest. William Kirby argues that, countries enter war because of their “rational calculations and national interests”.

numerous important roles during World War II. Women not only supported family members who fought throughout the war but also joined the Armed Services themselves, in addition to working in factories and other home front jobs. The era of war began in 1939 and did not cease until 1945, giving women of that period plenty of time to gain independence, identity, and ultimately impact future generations as well as the economy. Women during World War II took on roles during the war that no woman had…
