Discussion of Factors that Affect the Result of World War I In this essay I will discuss all the factors that affected the result of the world war one. The world war one started in 1914-1918 Germany, Austria Hungary, and Italy was on one side and they called themselves the triple alliance and on the other side were called the triple entente which included Great Britain, Russia and France. It started because of two reasons one was that Kaiser Wilhelm the king of Germany wanted to expand the German empire and the other reason was that the triple alliance and the triple entente disliked each other and had many international disputes. One reason which affected the world war is the entry of the U.S.A. The U.S.A joined the war because of many reasons one of these reasons was that Germans sank one of the U.S.A passenger ships called "lusitina" this infuriated the U.S people and they wanted revenge. When the U.S.A entered the war they provide new, young and fresh troops this also provided them with more weapons and ammunition. The new troops were very keen and this raised the morale of the troops of the UK and France. The new troops enabled the old and wounded to be rested this would make them fight more effectively, this lowered the morale of the opposition troops so this put the triple entente in a very strong position .they also entered because they were good friends with the uk and France so if they thought that Germany was wrong then the U.S.A was sticking by them. Another reason why the U.S.A joined the war was because they had lent money to the UKand France so if they had lost they wouldn't be able to pay off the debts. One other reason why they joined the war was because they intercepted the Zimmermann telegraph this was the German forbidden minister who sent a telegram to Mexico urging them to attack the U.S.A, but the U.S.A decoded this telegram so they wanted to attack them. Another reason why the First World War may have been affected and led
world war, where it plunged into the war as soon as the United Kingdom got involved, in the
European economy was in a desperate situation. They had to borrow money to cover the cost of the war. Their debt needed to be paid and they didn't have any money. So the British borrowed from the United States.
This war which was also called “The Great War” was a war of alliances and the two parties involved with the war was the “Allies” and the “Central Powers.” The first three nations that were involved in the “Allies” (Russia, France, and Britain) were given the nickname the "Triple Entente". Nations also involved with the Allies were Serbia, Belgium, Japan, Montenegro, New Zealand, Canada, and South Africa. New Zealand, Canada, and South Africa were involved ultimately because of their ties to Great Britain. Whenever the United States entered the war they wanted to stay neutral rather than join the “Allies”. Eventually, the Uni...
Most of the countries involved in WWI practiced imperialism. As previously stated, imperialism was one of the many tensions that often occurred which led to the eruption of WWI. Another reason for the great conflict between countries is all the alliances that were made. An example is the alliance made between France and Britain as told in a French statement by Raymond. Supported by the loyal friendship of England.
Parliament thought that the colonies were in their debt because the British protected the colonies and gained all of the land that France had in North America. However, the war was extremely costly to the British and they felt that the colonies should help repay Parliament for the services that they were provided. As a result, Britain imposed numerous taxes on the colonies in order to help defray the cost of the
... Russia to stop mobilize led to a general European war. James Joll attributes the outbreak of the war to disastrous decision made by politicians in the July crisis in 1914. Niall Ferguson states that Germany is not to blame because there is evidence that the social democrat party influenced the German Kaiser so much that he abandoned his expansionist aims. Ferguson sees UK as the country that contributed to the war the most as Sir Edward Grey completely misinterpreted ambitions and decided to go into the war to stop German expansionism.
The underlying cause of World War I was the build up of Nationalism, Imperialism, and Militarism in the 1800s. The “three isms” caused this great war due to the outcry in which they caused within the countries and their citizens including military build up, severe nationalism, patriotism, and extending a country 's power and influence through diplomacy or military force.
World War I, otherwise known as the Great War, began as a small battle that eventually developed into a prodigious uproar between several countries. An event that could have perhaps been avoided and prevented unnecessary deaths. WWI’s beginnings are controversial and historians throughout the world have several theories about the destructive event. Said to be one of the most disastrous and ruinous struggles between nations, The Great War lasted from July 1914 until November 1918. Referred to as a World War because of the global participation and the international unsettle; this war was exacerbated by 7 million casualties. World War I was primarily concerned with the struggle for mastery in Europe, but it was a global conflict that reached across five oceans and three continents. (Wilmott, 1) World War I introduced modern technologies including weaponry and nuclear machinery from opposing forces known as Central Powers against the Allied powers.
Before the war began, the British Parliament took tighter control of trade within their 13 colonies due to the debt Britain was in. Britain also raised taxes in order to carry them out out of debt at the time.
...ar on Russia. Russia seeked help from France. Germany demanded that France doesn't interfere with the war. When France objected to Germany's demands; Germany declared war on France.
World War One is one of the deadliest wars in world history and with any war there will always be fear and same can be say true in earlier America/today with a fresh mind of superiority and anxiety too. When the Allies fought in WWI, the U.S. stayed neutral during the war and respected the Germans, until the sinking of many merchant ships by German u boats, did the U.S. declared war on Germany and confiscate their rights. In early America many Americans feared a lot of things that was perfectly understandable during that time with it being the addition of new peoples- African Americans, Asians, and Europeans. The same can be said for today views where we still have grudges against minorities, especially Muslims
After the Revolutionary War, Congress had faced a huge debt. The United States owed money to the French since they aided support to the war.
There was tremendous competition between European states for power and wealth. England wanted to limit France in the new world and as time went on, the conflict grew and the French and English colonies got involved as well as the Spanish ones. Both King Williams’s war and Queen Anne’s War ended in a negotiated peace and had little effect on the colonies, but both had accompanying wars in Europe. King William’s was the War of the League of Augsburg in Europe and Queen Anne’s War was the War of the Spanish Succession in Europe. In the eighteenth century, the European states depended on borrowing to fund their wars, but the English were the first not to pay off the debt when the war was over. The English instead just paid the interest on the debt, but as the debt
Although France and Britain were natural enemies, their fear of Germany united them together with Russia. These alliances set the final stage for the beginning of World War I. Each country in each alliance would help each other during warfare. For example, if Germany attacked France, Britain and Russia would help France, and Italy and Austria would help Germany, dragging Europe into a state of chaos and violence. & nbsp;& nbsp;& nbsp;& nbsp;& nbsp;Militarism was also an underlying cause of World War I. As the alliance system divided Europe into opposing groups, each nation began to increase spending on its military.
With the United States joining the war it made them look like a strong country. This was because it showed the other countries that the United States must have a good army/navy, and that they must have money...
