The End Of World War I : The End Of World War One

The First World War fought from 1914 to 1918 was one of the largest and most brutal catastrophes fought in the 20th century. With nearly the entire European continent fighting a barbaric and everlasting war, the U.S. had eventually to get involved in order to reinitiate stability to Europe. Ultimately, the U.S. taking involvement in World War I had a profound political, economic, and social impact on the country. It increased government powers and solidified the nation’s leadership role in foreign politics. The U.S. emerged as the world 's greatest industrial power with increasing financial opportunities for minorities. At the same time anti-immigrant and anti- communist sentiments arose among many American citizens. And finally the war contributed to the massive migration of African Americans from the Southern to Northern states looking for employment and freedom and, first time allowed women to participate in jobs that were traditionally reserved for men.

At the precipice of World War I (WWI), the United States Army enlisted the help of women nurses resulting in a growth of economic opportunities for women in the nursing field. Before the war women were confined to their stereotype of a being delicate, motherly, and fragile. The war served as an opportunity for women, including nurses, to prove themselves to be more than their stereotype and be involved in the community rather than always sitting behind a man. Propaganda encouraged women to be more involved in the war and soon the concept feminism was reinvented. Female nurses, however, were still struggling to change the minds of people against women taking an active role in society or the military. Nursing had always played an important

A 4 foot deep trench was dug into the ground miles wide. Swerving through trees and hills. The smell of worms filled my nose as the fresh earth lay behind the trench. Proper defences were created to give us a better chance at defending the German attack. At 10:00 a.m. the first German soldiers were spotted. I held my rifle at my shoulder and looked through the small cut out in the trench. Thousands of Germans were running through open fields. Red mist coming out of most. A deafening array of gunfire to my left and right. With the rifle’s sight up to my eye, German soldiers were put into picture, and with a squeeze of a trigger, and a loud scream, they would fall over. Flashes of light came from 300 meters away. German snipers were picking out targets from an almost unreachable distance. Helmets were flying off left and right. My friends dying in front of my eyes. A single bullet was forced through the barrel of a Gewehr 98 rifle. Traveling at 878 meters per second, an 8 millimeter cartridge hit my helmet. It continued through into my skull, shredding my brain. Feeling nothing, my body lay on the ground dead. Blood spilling from the side of my head out of the helmet. The rats came running. Dead meat attracted hundreds of them. Crawling in and out of bodies, getting free meals along the way. A funeral wasn’t held for myself and the other casualties until after the war. The Treaty of Versailles was signed 5 years

After four years of brutal combat, the first world war had come to an end in 1918. The

The war left a huge impact people's lives all across America. Many immigrants had to adapt

The horrific and traumatic events of World War 1 were the stepping stones to better times. After the Great war woman became more recognized and respected. Also, there was many technological advancements after the war. Finally, although the economy was failing right after the war, it picked back up again and was soaring. Although World War one was a horrible and traumatic time in history, all bad times come to an end.

The war brought a return of prosperity and ended the Great Depression. (Winkler,1986) It also promoted the growth of big industrial business and strengthen military industrial links. (Winkler,1986) Women around the country were transformed from the average house wife into a person with a voice and most importantly a purpose. They contributed into the war effort and changed the way society viewed them. “The war was a vehicle for lasting social and economic gains.” (Winkler,1986) As the war ended, the United States of American came to be known as a powerful

Before World War I, the countries of Europe competed with one another in a race to colonize the world. The end of World War I brought national sovereignty, and an end to colonization to the forefront of the Allies’ concerns as they drew up plans for peace, and as a result, the Allied countries received former enemy colonies to watch over and guide to independence1. As a result of this mandate system, among other colonies, France received Syria. Instead of guiding Syria to independence, however, as the conflict dragged on, France forgot its mission and attempted to subdue Syrian resistance to her humanitarian efforts. This paper will address the following questions: Who is more to blame for the violence, the Syrians or the French? What did

Theas wars brought some problems to the front of the line in American foreign policy. As well as how we interact with the countries around us and who are our real allies in the world. In WW1/ the Great War we truly brought ourselves to the forefront of the world. It showed what our role truly is and what we stood for at the time. We wanted our influence in foreign nations to be small now we started this with embracing a war economy and shipping to the allied nations. We joined the war late only because the germans were bombing our boats. But after the war we saw what happens when you interact with the world around you and we got bit in the hand. This was shown to us as the great depression our pain from deciding to fall into our own greed and villainy towards profit and while in the first war we saw a boom in our economy and job market and women even proved that they are just as good as men at keeping the country running while the men are away. When America joined the war the job opportunities in the northern half of the country. These opportunities were quickly filled with women and African Americans the African Americans migrated from the south. Now in the true fact of the matter this war was absolutely necessary for America and its people it may seem crazy yes. But there's a reason as to why it was a necessary war especially for

Millions upon millions of men from all over Europe and the Americas died in that war. The result of such a far-sweeping war is the need for production of goods. Ships, guns, uniforms, rations, automobiles, fuels, rubber and everything in between was needed. After the war the U.S. was the only country left relatively unharmed from the fighting. There were factories that had been built and still needed men to fill the jobs.

World War One began on July 28, 1914 after the Austrian-Hungarian emperor was assassinated by coordination of The Black Hand secret society, a Serbian nationalist group. The war between Serbia and Austria-Hungary began. The First World War is known for its trench warfare, alliances, and technological advancements. World War I ended on November 11, 1918 ending in an allied victory. World War II, also known as the Second War, began on September 1, 1939. World War II was much more brutal than World War I, the German, Adolf Hitler and his National Socialist, Nazi Party, killed over 60 million people. The war came to an end on September 2, 1942 when the surrender was signed aboard the battleship U.S.S. Missouri in Tokyo Bay. Advancements

Those affiliated with the war had been affected in severely horrendous ways both physically and mentally. Soldiers on the frontlines spent most of their time in the trenches, the trenches where they had seen their comrades die. An article interviewing a WWI veteran had stated “As soon as you got over the top, fear has left you and it is terror. You don’t look, you see. You don’t hear, you listen. Your nose is filled with fumes and death. You taste

World War One (WWI) was arguably the most costly conflict in human history. With over "one third of men returning home" with serious mental ailments, this war had effects long after the armistice treaty (World War I Document Archive 18). This war lasted well past the signing of the treaty and went on to spark the beginning of the Second World War in 1939. Veterans were plagued with sickness long after the effects of the gas wore off and long after the guns fell silent, and to this day photographs of the trenches send chills down the spine of any man. WWI conjures up images of a no man 's land strewn with dead bodies; their

World War I left an acrimonious taste across the world. One would say it was the biggest gaffe to have ever been made. World War I brings with it the loss of millions of precious lives and much devastation that follow; to this day it is believe that everything bad that happen in the world is a consequence of World War I.
