World War I And The Great War

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.

World war one was one the biggest wars in recorded history. It lasted from 1914-1918 and was a brutal conflict in Canadian history. More than 60,000 Canadians died in this war. When the First World War began in the year of 1914, some believe that it would last for a long time. Many young individuals in Canada and others saw this war as a privilege to travel, adventure, and great beauty. Some individuals were afraid that the conflict would be over before they could get into the battle. Many people signed up dreaming that they would have the honour of fighting for the British Empire, to which Canada belonged. The somewhat “Great War” was different in the dreamy vision than it was in reality. This war took the lives of more than 8 million

A state of isolationism was a goal too great for America to handle. America and its leaders had sought to stay out of both World War I and World War II only to be pulled in by intense happenings that inflicted chaos on the nations people. World War II would be a time in American history that would bring many fresh war tactics and developments, that helped to pull a depraved nation from the depths of a depression as well as pledge the freedom and prosperity of its opposing nations. Dangerous discoveries will be made in the world would be left to be governed by two world powers.

In 1945 the British Prime Minister Winston Churchill said that the United States would be the strongest economic country in the world. In the 1950’s it had become a reality and the United States not only had a strong military but a strong economy. World War II was a staple for why the economy was up with the war going on money was needed to get the war products like planes, tanks, bullets, guns, and many other things.

Throughout history the United States has been involved in many different wars. Their involvement has brought forth many significant events and changes that have affected the American way of life.

A dilemma that was happening for many years can be resolved, but there will be disadvantages and advantages ,no matter what the outcome is. The Great War also called the World War I , started on July 28, 1914 in Europe.The war lasted for four years to end all wars that happened before involving other countries. From beginning to end of the four years, men were not the only ones working hard, so were women. When men went to fight in the war, it led to major grasps in the labor market, so industries and the government reached out to women and asked them to volunteer in specific jobs that were hiring. However the paying jobs did not mention to women that the high wage jobs were temporary.The government used a sneaky tactic on women in order

World War One, also known as the Great War, was a war between the Central Powers (Germany, Austria- Hungary, and Italy) and the Allied Powers (United Kingdom, France, Russia, and later the United States of America) from June 28, 1914 until November 11, 1918. More than 9 million soldiers and 7 million citizens died in or because of the war, making WWI the bloodiest war by far. Prior to the Great War, Tensions were growing, Nationalism was one the rise, and counties were making alliances and gearing up for war. United Kingdom, France, and the Russian Empire made up the Triple Entente while Italy, Austria-Hungary, and Germany signed an alliance treaty known as the Triple Alliance. It did not take much of a spark for war to start.

World War I, also known as the Great War, started in 1914 when Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia. This conflict was originally rather minor, but soon, a multitude of different nations were becoming involved. The reason for this was mainly because of the alliances that different countries had made with each other. These countries, such as Germany, Russia, Great Britain, and France quickly became involved in the war. Troops were sent off to fight on the western and eastern fronts of Germany and Austria-Hungary. Germany led very harsh attacks against the Allies and held the upper hand towards the beginning of the war. In 1917 the Allies (Russia, France, Great Britain, and Italy) gained vital countries, but unfortunately lost some in return. In 1917, Russia was taken out of the war by the Bolshevik Revolution, and the United States joined the fight against Germany. Originally the US had been a neutral nation, but after Germany began attacking US ships and submarines as well as making plans with Mexico against this neutral nation, they decided to join the Allies (Editor). After this point the war became increasingly intense for soldiers, as well as people at home. Soldiers tirelessly fought for their countries with an unyielding sense of patriotism and many sacrificed their life for their nation. During WWI, new technologies were introduced that made life for the soldiers increasingly more

World War I, at the time known as the Great War, was a global war that happened mainly in Europe where the Allied Powers, formed mainly by France, Great Britain, and Russia, were against the Central Powers, formed by Germany, Austria-Hungary, Italy, and the Ottoman Empire. Someone who doesn’t have a thorough knowledge about the War would be quick to say the causes were economical or ideological or that the direct cause was the death of Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary but it is more complicated than that. Franz Ferdinand’s death was nothing more than a detonator. Although some, like the Swedish chemist Alfred Nobel and the American steel manufacturer Andrew Carnegie, did an effort to promote peace “dark clouds” were long suspected to

World War I, also known as the Great War, was one of the most important and traumatic war in history. It left many countries in devastation and chaos. Countries involved in the war, like Europe and America promised to prevent any other future world war because of the millions lives taken and the destruction caused to the world in the previous war. However, peace was not enjoyed for long and after two decades, the Second World War began from the issues that were left unresolved from the previous conflict. There was not one specific factor that started World War II, but many causes of which two of those were the economic instability of Germany and the resentment of Italy and Japan over the Versailles Treaty that was put forth after World War I. World War II was the second most destructive and disturbing war in history that lasted for six years and resulted in tremendous casualties.

From piles of bodies in no man’s land to Jewish death camps, the level of violence found within World War I and World War II was extreme even for wartime standards. These experiences shaped generations to come through the memories passed on by those who lived through such atrocities. Both Ernst Junger and Art Spiegelman carry on these memories through the book Storm of Steel and graphic novel Maus. Their pieces both give glimpses into the lives of the past and the violence in which those individuals endured. Their portrayal of WWI and WWII parallels the respective authors’ understanding of the nature of each war’s violence, and their ownership to that memory. Furthermore, their emphasis on a particular portrayal of violence serves as a platform to compare WWI and WWII.

Both wrold War I and World Ii effected the outcome of how every part of the world turned out to be. World War I had severely impacted much of Europe as well a number force to France, including a medical unit ( this was one few roles women had in war, and were sent to serve in the trenches) and a fighter squadron. Some say the fighter pilots were still in training when the war ended, others that they had just managed to fly a couple of missions before the officially
