Practice on games page • Label the map on page 30. Color the Allies one color and the Central Powers a different color. The Sides (notebook page 30) – o Central Powers – Germany, Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria, Ottoman Empire o Allies – Great Britain, F rance, Russia (until they dropped out in 1917), United States (at the end), Belgium (because Germany invaded), Serbia (because A-H invaded to start it all). The most often missed are Belgium and Bulgaria, because they have similar names, and Serbia, because it’s in the middle like the Central Powers. We like to say Belgian waffles are good, so Belgium is one of the good guys, our Allies. • Causes of the War (write these in the white space on the right side of page 30) o Militarism – building up huge armies o Alliances – secret treaties to help each other if attacked o Imperialism – building an empire by taking other countries as colonies o Nationalism – different ethnic groups want our own nations, don’t want to be ruled by empires The Spark – The assassination of Archduke Franz-Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary. Austria-Hungary attacked Serbia, and all the other countries were pulled in because of their alliances. • Reasons for US involvement even though most wanted to stay neutral (page 32) o cultural and economic ties to Britain (language, money) o German Submarine Warfare (and specifically the Lusitania) o Zimmerman Telegram (promised to give Texas, Arizona and NM back to Mexico if they’d fight against US Match the notes with the cartoon that illustrates each.

Rival alliances: Triple Alliance vs. Triple Entente SP-6/17/18 1. 1871: The balance of power of Europe was upset by the decisive Prussian victory in the Franco-Prussian War and the creation of the German Empire. a. Bismarck thereafter feared French revenge and negotiated treaties to isolate France. b. Bismarck also feared Russia, especially after the Congress of Berlin in 1878 when Russia blamed Germany for not gaining territory in the Balkans. 2. In 1879, the Dual Alliance emerged: Germany and Austria a. Bismarck sought to thwart Russian expansion. b. The Dual Alliance was based on German support for Austria in its struggle with Russia over expansion in the Balkans. c. This became a major feature of European diplomacy until the end of World War I. 3. Triple Alliance, 1881: Italy joined Germany and Austria Italy sought support for its imperialistic ambitions in the Mediterranean and Africa. 4. Russian-German Reinsurance Treaty, 1887 a. It promised the neutrality of both Germany and Russia if either country went to war with another country. b. Kaiser Wilhelm II refused to renew the reinsurance treaty after removing Bismarck in 1890. This can be seen as a huge diplomatic blunder; Russia wanted to renew it but now had no assurances it was safe from a German invasion. France courted Russia; the two became allies. Germany, now out of necessity, developed closer ties to Austria.

  • To Examine the Horrors of Trench Warfare
    TRENCH WARFARE Objective: To examine the horrors of trench warfare. What problems faced attacking troops? What was Trench Warfare? Trench Warfare was a type of fighting during World War I in which both sides dug trenches that were protected by mines and barbed wire Cross-section of a front-line trench How extensive were the trenches? An aerial photograph of the opposing trenches and no-man's land in Artois, France, July 22, 1917. German trenches are at the right and bottom, British trenches are at the top left.

Many men killed in the trenches were buried almost where they fell. These corpses, as well as the food scraps that littered the trenches, attracted rats. Quotes from soldiers fighting in the trenches: "The rats were huge. They were so big they would eat a wounded man if he couldn't defend himself." "I saw some rats running from under the dead men's greatcoats, enormous rats, fat with human flesh. My heart pounded as we edged towards one of the bodies. His helmet had rolled off. The man displayed a grimacing face, stripped of flesh; the skull bare, the eyes devoured and from the yawning mouth leapt a rat." What other problems did soldiers face in the trenches? Officers walking through a flooded communication trench.

  • The Treaty of Versailles on June 28, 1919
    World War I World War I officially ended with ​ the signing of the Treaty of Versailles on June 28, 1919. Negotiated among the Allied powers with little participation by Germany, it changed German boundaries and made Germany pay money for causing the war. After strict enforcement for five years, the French agreed to the modification of important provisions, or parts of the treaty. Germany agreed to pay reparations (Money) under the Dawes Plan and the Young Plan, but those plans were cancelled in 1932, and Hitler’s rise to power and his actions did away with the remaining terms of the treaty. <<< Hitler Rose to Power in Germany in 1933 The treaty was written by the Allies (Great Britain, U.S, France) with almost no participation by the Germans. The negotiations revealed a split between the French, who wanted to dismember Germany to make it impossible for it to renew war with France, and the British and Americans, who wanted the terms to be kind enough to Germany to not encourage anger. The Following are Parts of The Treaty of Versailles Part I: created the Covenant of the New League of Nations, which Germany was not allowed ​ ​ ​ to join until 1926. The League of Nations was an idea put forward by United States President Woodrow Wilson. He wanted it to be a place where representatives of all the countries of the world could come together and discuss events and hopefully avoid future fighting. However, the United States congress refused to join the League of Nations. Even though the United States played a huge role in creating it, they did not join it! ​ President Woodrow Wilson Held office 1913 - 1921 Part II: specified Germany’s new boundaries, giving Eupen-Malm[eacute]dy to Belgium, ​ Alsace-Lorraine back to France, substantial eastern districts to Poland, Memel to Lithuania, and large portions of Schleswig to Denmark.

Identifying military engagements in Egypt and the Levant, 1915- 1918 Roslyn Shepherd King Pike* Independent Scholar Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT This article examines the official names listed in the 'Egypt and Palestine' section of the 1922 report by the British Army’s Battles Nomenclature Committee and compares them with descriptions of military engagements in the Official History to establish if they clearly identify the events. The Committee’s application of their own definitions and guidelines during the process of naming these conflicts is evaluated together with examples of more recent usages in selected secondary sources. The articles concludes that the Committee’s failure to accurately identify the events of this campaign have had a negative impacted on subsequent historiography. Introduction While the perennial rose would still smell the same if called a lily, any discussion of military engagements relies on accurate and generally agreed on enduring names, so historians, veterans, and the wider community, can talk with some degree of confidence about particular events, and they can be meaningfully written into history.

  • World War I 1914-1918
    A Significant War Over 16 million people died in WWI and over 20 million were wounded, totaling over 37 million. There are 317 million people in the United States today. That means, that if the casualties from WWI were applied to the United States today, one in every nine people would be dead or wounded. That is how much of an impact this war had on the world, especially Europe, and why it is important to know and understand. World War I What was the correlation between the Age of Imperialism and the outbreak of World War I? Long Term Causes Militarism- Glorifying Military Power Keeping a large standing army prepared for war Arms race for military technology Long Term Causes Nationalism- Deep Devotion to One’s Nation Competition and Rivalry developed between European nations for territory and markets (Example France and Germany- Alsace-Lorraine) Long Term Causes Imperialism- European competition for colonies Quest for colonies often almost led to war Imperialism led to rivalry and mistrust amongst European nations Long Term Causes Alliance System- Designed to keep peace in Europe, instead pushed continent towards war Many Alliances made in secret By 1907 two major alliances: Triple Alliance and Triple Entente The Two Sides Triple Alliance Triple Entente Germany England Austria-Hungary France Italy Russia Central Powers Allied Powers Germany England, France, Austria-Hungary Russia, United Ottoman Empire States, Italy, Serbia, Belgium, Switzerland Game of Allegiance Did it get confusing trying to keep your allegiances
