Militarism, alliances, imperialism, and nationalism all contributed to rising tensions in Europe prior to World War 1. By 1914, the major European powers were locked into a complex network of alliances that drew more countries into war once it began between Austria-Hungary and Serbia over the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. Germany's unconditional support of Austria-Hungary and invasion of Belgium drew Britain into the war as well.Chapter 14 wwi

Woodrow Wilson advocated for neutrality and honesty in international affairs as tensions rose in Europe prior to WWI. The main causes of the war included militarism, alliances, imperialism, and nationalism. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary by a Serbian nationalist triggered Austria-Hungary's declaration of war on Serbia and aligned nations, starting WWI. While the US initially remained neutral, events like the sinking of the Lusitania and revelations in the Zimmerman Telegram turned American public opinion against Germany and led to the US entering the war in 1917 on the side of the Allies.Ap ch. 24 wwi

The sinking of the British passenger ship Lusitania by a German U-boat in 1915, which killed over 100 American civilians, increased pressure in the United States to enter World War I. Although Germany promised not to target passenger ships anymore, they continued attacking U.S. vessels. In 1917, America could no longer remain neutral and declared war on the Central Powers led by Germany and Austria-Hungary, joining the Allied Powers of Britain and France in an effort to help shift the tide of the war.Paths to wwi

World War I began in 1914 after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary by Serbian nationalists. This triggered a series of military and political events that led major European powers to declare war on each other. The war involved all of the European powers and dragged on for four years, resulting in massive casualties and new military technologies like tanks and chemical weapons being used. By 1918, the Central Powers of Germany and Austria-Hungary had been exhausted and surrendered. The war ended with the defeat of the Central Powers and the signing of the Treaty of Versailles, which imposed punitive terms on Germany and helped create new countries in Central and Eastern Europe.

1. The document provides historical context on imperialism and its relationship to World War 1. Late 19th century European powers had significant military and economic advantages that they used to colonize parts of Asia and Africa with weak governments and abundant resources.
2. Between 1870-1914, there was a "scramble for Africa" as European powers divided up the continent based on the Berlin Conference of 1885. Colonialism took different forms, from direct rule to protectorates with local rulers. The British Empire was the largest, spanning over 13 million square miles.

The First World War began in 1914 and ended in 1918. Some of the key causes included militant nationalism, an arms race between European powers, and the division of Europe into opposing alliances. The immediate cause was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary by Serbian nationalists. This led Austria-Hungary to declare war on Serbia, drawing in other allied countries. After years of fighting and millions of casualties, Germany surrendered in 1918. The Treaty of Versailles established harsh peace terms for Germany and redrew borders in Europe. It also created the League of Nations to promote international cooperation and prevent future wars.World war one

Canada entered World War 1 after Britain declared war on Germany in 1914. Over the course of the war, Canadian troops fought in major battles in Europe such as Ypres, Somme, Vimy Ridge, and Passchendale. Life in the trenches of the Western Front was difficult, as opposing forces faced each other across no man's land. While the war was expected to be over quickly, it led to four years of brutal trench warfare with high casualties and little territory gained. Canada's involvement helped develop a stronger national identity and unity among Canadians.WWI

World War 1 started in 1914 in Europe due to rising nationalism, imperialism, militarism, and alliances that pulled nations into war. The U.S. remained neutral until 1917 when German attacks on merchant ships and the Zimmerman Telegram led the U.S. to join the Allies. After the war, President Wilson's Fourteen Points and League of Nations proposal failed due to isolationist sentiment in the U.S., which rejected the Treaty of Versailles and membership in the League.Wwimania 090324132710-phpapp01

The key causes of World War 1 included militarism, alliances, imperialism, and nationalism. Militarism led European powers to increase defense spending in the early 1900s, and a system of alliances split the countries into the Allied and Central Powers. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand triggered a series of events that led Germany and its allies to declare war on Russia, France and eventually Britain. Over 8 million soldiers lost their lives in the war due to new industrial weapons and stalemated trench warfare.Wwi

The causes of WWI included rising militarism, alliances between European powers, nationalism, and imperialism. Major European countries had significantly increased their military spending in the decade before WWI. Countries formed alliances that pulled them into the war, such as Germany supporting Austria-Hungary against Serbia, which was supported by Russia. Nationalism in countries like Serbia and Germany contributed to tensions. Imperialism led countries to compete for colonies in Africa and markets for their goods. The immediate trigger for war was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria by Serbian nationalists in 1914.Road_to_WWI.ppt

Several factors contributed to the outbreak of World War 1:
1) European powers like Germany, Britain, and France were engaged in an arms race and imperial competition for over a decade before 1914, increasing tensions.
2) The Balkan region was unstable with weak empires like Austria-Hungary, Russia, and the Ottomans struggling to control nationalist movements.
3) By 1914, these powers were divided into opposing alliance blocs, like the Triple Entente between Britain, France, and Russia who opposed the Triple Alliance of Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy.
4) The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand by Serbian nationalists in 1914 gave Austria-Hungary a26.1 the great war begins

World War I began when Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria was assassinated by a Serbian nationalist in 1914. This triggered a series of events due to the complex system of alliances in Europe. Austria declared war on Serbia, pulling in Russia and Germany due to their alliances. France joined Russia, and Germany declared war on France by invading through Belgium. Britain then entered the war to defend Belgian neutrality. The war quickly escalated from a regional conflict between Austria and Serbia into a global war between the Allied and Central powers of Europe due to the entangling system of alliances.More from esample458 (20)

European exploration began in the 15th century as European powers sought new trade routes to Asia to access valuable spices and other goods. This document provides background on why Western European nations like Portugal, Spain, England, and France established overseas colonies starting in this era. It explores their motivations, including accessing Asian trade, spreading Christianity, finding natural resources, and gaining economic and geopolitical advantages over rivals. New technologies like the compass and caravel ships enabled explorers like da Gama, Columbus, and Magellan to discover new lands and establish European colonial empires across Africa, Asia, and the Americas.What is a Map? 
What is a Map? esample458

This document discusses different types of maps and how to read them. It explains that globes and maps are tools used to learn about the Earth. A globe shows a round model from space with continents and oceans, while a map displays a flat representation that can be carried. The document then describes important map elements, such as the title, legend, compass rose and scale. It also discusses different kinds of maps including political, physical, historical and climate maps. Finally, it explains how latitude and longitude lines form a grid system to precisely locate places on Earth.Five Themes of Geogrpahy
Five Themes of Geogrpahyesample458
油
Geography is the study of the earth and how people and the environment interact. There are 5 main themes of geography: location, which includes absolute and relative location; place, which has human and physical characteristics; human-environment interaction, which looks at how humans, plants, and animals affect each other and the environment; movement of people, goods, and ideas; and regions, areas defined by common features that distinguish them.Factors of economic growth
Factors of economic growthesample458
油
There are 4 key factors that influence a country's economic growth and Gross Domestic Product: investment in human capital through education and training; investment in capital goods like factories, machinery and technology; natural resources available within the country; and entrepreneurship. Nations that invest in these areas will have a more productive workforce and be able to produce more goods and services, leading to higher GDP and economic growth.Communism vs capitalism
Communism vs capitalismesample458

This document provides an overview of communism and capitalism. It defines communism as an economic system where wealth is distributed evenly and the government controls everything, while defining capitalism as a free market system based on supply and demand where citizens have power. Some negatives of communism listed are it being undemocratic and centralized government control, while negatives of capitalism include it creating unequal social classes and a wealth gap between rich and poor.Specialization 
Specialization esample458
油
The document discusses specialization and its benefits. Specialization occurs when individuals or companies focus on specific parts of a production process rather than all parts. This allows for greater overall production and higher living standards. Specialization gives countries comparative advantages - the ability to produce certain goods more efficiently than others. When countries specialize in what they have a comparative advantage in and trade, it benefits both countries through interdependence.Economic systems explained
Economic systems explainedesample458

This document provides information about different economic systems:
- Traditional economies rely on customs and traditions to determine what and how to produce goods, with jobs passed down through generations.
- Command economies have the government make all economic decisions, like in communist countries.
- Market economies rely on supply and demand with consumers deciding what is produced and individuals/businesses competing to make a profit.
- Mixed economies combine free enterprise with some government regulation of industries.Types of maps

Maps are pictorial representations of Earth or parts of Earth that can be used for various purposes. There are several main types of maps, including political maps that show boundaries and cities, physical maps that depict terrain features, economic maps that illustrate resources and industry, and historical maps that focus on a certain time period or location in the past. Maps are important tools in geography for examining different aspects of places around the world.What is a map- Introduction to Map Skills Presentation

This document discusses different types of maps and their purposes. It explains that globes show the Earth as seen from space, with continents and oceans, while maps show the Earth on a flat surface so they can be carried. Maps contain elements like titles, legends, compass roses and scales. The document describes political, physical and other types of maps, and how grid systems of latitude and longitude allow precise locations to be identified using coordinates.Latitude and longitude
Latitude and longitudeesample458
油
The document discusses lines of latitude and longitude that form a grid system around the Earth. Lines of latitude, also called parallels, circle the globe parallel to the equator and measure degrees north and south. Lines of longitude, also called meridians, circle the globe from pole to pole and measure degrees east and west of the Prime Meridian. Where these lines intersect provides an absolute location on Earth in degrees of latitude and longitude.School & team expectations 2014 2015

Australia formed around 60,000 years ago when lower sea levels connected Australia, New Guinea, and Tasmania into a single landmass called Sahul. The first humans arrived around this time, having traveled from Southeast Asia. Later, rising sea levels separated the landmasses into the distinct continents seen today. The original inhabitants of Australia were the Aboriginal Australians, who had lived in small hunter-gatherer groups for thousands of years in various environments across the continent before the arrival of Europeans in the 1700s.Factors of production & Latin American economies

The document discusses factors that influence economic growth, including human capital (labor force), capital (machinery and infrastructure), natural resources, and entrepreneurship. It provides examples of each factor and explains how investing in these areas, especially education to improve human capital, can lead to increased GDP and stronger economic growth. The document also analyzes different economic systems and provides overviews of the economies of Brazil, Cuba, and some Latin American countries.NAFTA Notes
NAFTA Notesesample458

This document discusses different viewpoints on NAFTA and maquiladoras. NAFTA allows Canada, the US, and Mexico to trade freely without tariffs. Maquiladoras are Mexican factories built near the border that employ cheap Mexican labor. American business owners would generally support NAFTA as it allows them to cut costs by moving factories to Mexico. However, American workers often lose their jobs this way. Mexican workers gain employment but face low wages and poor conditions. Environmentalists have concerns about increased pollution across North America from more factories.Trade barriers- Latin America
Trade barriers- Latin Americaesample458

This document discusses trade barriers and their costs and benefits. It defines trade as the voluntary exchange of goods and services between countries, noting that both parties benefit. It then contrasts free trade with trade barriers such as tariffs, quotas, and embargoes. While trade barriers protect domestic industries and jobs, they ultimately raise prices for consumers and are discouraged by economists as they reduce overall standards of living. The document uses examples like EU tariffs and the US-Cuba embargo to illustrate different types of barriers.Types of democracies

This document compares and contrasts parliamentary and presidential systems of government. In a parliamentary system, the legislature controls the executive branch, with the prime minister chosen from parliament. By contrast, in a presidential system the executive and legislative branches are separate, with citizens electing each independently and providing checks on each other's power.Cuban Revolution

Fidel Castro led a successful revolution in 1959 against the corrupt dictator Fulgencio Batista. Castro established a communist government in Cuba and seized private property, angering the United States. The US imposed an economic embargo on Cuba and cut off trade. Cuba then allied with the Soviet Union, leading to heightened tensions during the Cold War, including the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis when Soviet nuclear missiles in Cuba brought the US and USSR to the brink of nuclear war. The embargo on Cuba remains in place today.Independence Movements

Most of Latin America was ruled by European powers like Spain and Portugal for 300 years. In the early 1800s, leaders like Toussaint L'Ouverture, Simon Bolivar, Jose de San Martin, and Miguel Hidalgo led independence movements against European rule, inspired by the American and French Revolutions. Toussaint L'Ouverture led Haiti to independence from France, becoming the first Black leader of a free state. Simon Bolivar liberated multiple South American countries from Spain and helped establish Gran Columbia. Jose de San Martin led Argentina and other countries in South America to independence. Miguel Hidalgo initiated Mexico's independence movement, though he did not live to see its success.Leading up to wwi and the war
