Long Long Term Term

Causes Causes of WWIof WWI

What is Nationalism?

A deep or extreme devotion to one’s own country. It can serve as a force to unify a country. However, it can cause competition between

nations seeking to over power each other.

How did Nationalism Lead to WWI?

By the turn of the 20th century (1890’s) a fierce rivalry developed between Germany, Austria-Hungary, Great Britain, Russia, Italy, & France.

What is Imperialism?

A policy in which a strong nation seeks to dominate other countries especially politically, economically, or socially.

The nations of Europe competed fiercely for colonies in Africa and Asia.

How did Imperialism lead to WWI?

What is Militarism?

glorifying military power and keeping an army prepared for war.

How did militarism lead to WWI? In the 1890’s a

dangerous arms race began due to the belief that in order to be truly great you needed to have a powerful military.

1910-1914 Increase in Defense

Expenditures

France 10%

Britain 13%

Russia 39%Germany 73%

By 1914 all the Great Powers had large standing armies except for Great Britain, which had the world’s largest navy.

System of Alliances

Agreements between countries to aid or defend each other in event of war/conflict.

By 1907, there were two rival camps in Europe. A dispute between any two rival countries would draw the entire continent into war.

System of Alliances

In 1879, Bismarck formed the Dual Alliance between Germany and Austria-Hungary. Three years later, Italy joined to form the Triple Alliance.

In 1904, Britain formed an entente or alliance with France and Russia called the Triple Entente.

Europe in 1914

http://mapsof.net/map/map-europe-alliances-1914

The Schlieffen Plan

WWI began by Germany attacking France by invading through neutral Belgium

What is the Western Front?Two lines of deep trenches developed in France.

Allies on one side & Germans on the other.

Trench Warfare

“no man’s land”- area between opposing trenches

“no man’s land”

Trenches

A Multi-Front War

Verdun – February, 1916

German offensive. Each side had 500,000 casualties.

The Somme – July, 1916

60,000 British soldiers killed in one day. Over 1,000,000 killed in 5 months.

Opposition to WWI Naturalized citizens:

because they had close ties to their homeland

Socialists: viewed the war as an imperialistic struggle for colonies

Pacifists: believed that all wars are evil

Parents: didn’t want their sons to experience the horrors of warfare & death

Britain

Britain emphasized accounts of German aggression in its news reports to the U.S.

Gave the U.S. large orders for war materials and took out large loans from the U.S.

The British Blockade

Britain blocked the German coast to prevent weapons and other military supplies from getting through, however they expanded their definition of contraband to include food.

Germany had difficulty importing food by 1917 famine stalked the country.

750,000 Germans starved to death as a result of the blockade.

Germany’s Response

Counter blockade with German U-Boats (Unterseeboot, German word for submarine) would sink any ship in British waters (not always possible to warn passengers of an attack)

German’s Attack Lusitania

May 7, 1915 Germany U-Boat sank British merchant ship the Lusitania killing 128 Americans.

Germans argued that the liner was carrying ammunitions. (which was true)

Americans were outraged.

The Sinking of the Lusitania

Notice! Travelers intending to embark on the Atlantic voyage are reminded that a state of war exists between Germany and her allies and Great Britain and her allies; that the zone of war includes the waters adjacent to the British Isles; that, in accordance with formal notice given by the Imperial German Government, vessels flying the flag of Great Britain or of any of her allies, are liable to destruction in those waters and that travelers sailing in the war zone on ships of Great Britain or her allies do so at their own risk. Imperial German Embassy

The Zimmerman TelegramWhat did Germany intend to begin on February 1 1917?

What did Zimmermann propose if the United States went to war with Germany during WWI?

If this telegram wasn’t intercepted, what do you think might have happened?

Zimmermann Note A telegram from the German foreign

minister to the German ambassador in Mexico that was intercepted and decoded by the British.

Proposed an alliance between Mexico and Germany in the event that the U.S. joined the war on the Allied side.

In return Germany promised to help Mexico gain back the lost territories of Texas, Arizona, and New Mexico.

Bellwork: Imagine the year is 191. A bitter war is raging in

Europe-a war that has been called a threat to civilization. At home people are urging America to get involved while others are calling for the country to isolate itself and avoid the fight. Do you think America should join the war?

When should the U.S. intervene in the affairs of another country?

When American lives are threatened, how should the government respond?

How would you react if the U.S. entered a World War? Would you volunteer to serve in the military, protest the nation’s involvement, or refuse to go?

American Power Tips the Balance of Power

Main Idea: Why It Matters Now: Terms & Names:

The United States mobilized a large army & navy help the Allies achieve victory.

During World War I, the United States military evolved into the powerful fighting force it remains today.

Learning Objective: Understand how U.S. entry & new technologies impact the war and be able to describe the effects of mechanized war.

Woodrow Wilson Declares War “Property can be paid for; the lives of peaceful

and innocent people cannot be. The present German submarine warfare against commerce is a warfare against mankind.

…We are glad…to fight… for the ultimate peace of the world and for the liberation of its peoples…The world must be safe for democracy…We have no selfish ends to serve. We desire no conquest, no dominion. We seek no indeminities… It is a fearful thing to lead this great peaceful people into war…But the right is more precious than peace.”

The YanksAre Coming!

How does the U.S. Raise an Army?

U. S. Army not prepared for.

200,000 men in service few with combat experience

U.S. passed Selective Service Act in 1917 required men to register in order to be randomly selected for military service

24 million men registered3 million were called up2 million went to Europe1.5 million actually saw combat

U.S. Army 1 out of 5 soldiers were

foreign born Most had not attended

high school Trained for 17 hours/day Target practice, bayonet

drills, kitchen duty, grounds maintenance

Real weapons were in short supply so soldiers trained with fake weapons (rocks for and grenades, wooden poles instead of rifles)

How did US Soldiers help win the war?

Allied forces exhausted and demoralized after 2 ½ years of fighting

U.S. troops provided energy and enthusiasm American Expeditionary Force (AEF) arrived

in France as reinforcements but operated as an independent fighting force that helped to stop the German advance led by General John J. Pershing

“dougboys” nickname given to American infantrymen because the belts they wore were polished with pipe clay or dough.

American Troops Offensive

U.S. helped stop the German advance and throw back the GermansAlvin York- famous American war hero, killed 25 Germans with only a revolver and rifle

How did the U.S. Build a Naval Force?

U.S. had to transport men, food, and equipment overseas

U.S. government needed to expand its fleet:

1. Exempted shipyard workers from the draft

2. Created a PR campaign that emphasized the importance of shipyard work

3. Used prefabrication techniques where standardized parts were built elsewhere and assembled in the yard, reducing construction time

4. Government took commercial and private ships and converted them

How did U.S. Navy Help Turns the Tide?

German U-Boat attacks on merchant ships threatened the war effort.

Created the convoy system in which a group of heavily guarded destroyers escorted merchant ships across the Atlantic.

Broke German blockade by cutting shipping losses in half

New New TechnologiesTechnologies

Poison Gas

Machine GunFires ammunition automatically, wiped out waves of attackers. Fired up to 600 rounds per minute

Invented by a German Chemist originally to fertilize farmlands, later used during warfare, caused blinding, blistering, and choking

Krupp’s “Big Bertha” Gun

French Renault Tank

Armored combat vehicle introduced by the British in the Battle of Somme in 1916, slow and clumsy at first.

British Tank at Ypres

The Airplane

First used for reconnaissance (spying) taking pictures behind enemy lines. Later planes began carrying mounted guns and dropping bombsDogfights- individual air combats where pilots sat in open cockpits and shot at each other with pistols

New Hazards of War mechanized warfare- began

during WWI with the introduction of machine guns, tanks, & airplanes led to horrific injuries

“shell shock” soldiers nervous systems were shattered by noisy shelling (Called PTSD today)

New Hazards of War

Trench throat-a painful infection of the gums and throat Trench foot- caused by standing in trenches with wet

socks caused toes to turn blue or red, become numb, and start to rot. Treatment include amputation.

War Is HELL !!

Soldiers with gunshot wounds to the face were helped by a French surgeon who used skin graft techniques to heal wounds, helped found the field of plastic surgery

Doctors learned more about how to treat injuries and wounds, especially fighting infection.

Sacrifices in War

How does war impact veteran’s physical or emotional conditions?

What challenges if any does the soldier face returning to civilian life?

What is the attitude in the community the veteran returns to?

Wilfred Owen was born in England, on March 18, 1893. He worked as a student teacher at Wyle Cop School while preparing for his matriculation exam for the University of London. After failing to win a scholarship he found work as a teacher of English in the Berlitz School in Bordeaux.

Although he had previously thought of himself as a pacifist, in October 1915 he enlisted in the Artists' Rifles. Commissioned as a 2nd Lieutenant, he joined the Manchester Regiment in France in January, 1917. While in France Wilfred Owen began writing poems about his war experiences.

Wilfred Owen

In the summer of 1917 Owen suffered from a concussion at the Somme after a shell landed just two yards away. After several days in a bomb crater with the mangled corpse of a fellow officer, Owen was diagnosed as suffering from shell-shock.

While recovering at Craiglockhart War Hospital he met the poet Siegfried Sassoon. Owen showed Sassoon his poetry who advised and encouraged him. So also did another writer at the hospital, Robert Graves. Over the next few months Owen wrote a series of poems, including Anthem for Doomed Youth, Disabled, Dulce et Decorum Est and Strange Meeting. He was urged to return to the front to find more material for his poetry. He returned to the front in September of 1918 and was killed on November 4, 1918, one week before the armistice that ended the war. He was 25 years old.

Disabled by Wilfred Owen

Listen & Watch the video clip of the poem “Disabled” by Wilfred Owen being read.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEeo6tU4jZA&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2D0vI7VasXE&feature=related Listen and look for answers to the following questions: How does war impact veteran’s physical or emotional conditions?

What challenges if any does the soldier face returning to civilian life?

What is the attitude in the community the veteran returns to?

Disabled by Wilfred Owen Count off by 5’s. All the 1’s to the first stanza, 2’s do the 2nd stanza,

3’s the third stanza, etc. Write on the paper what about the stanza:

Strikes you, moves you, stands out to you? What associations does a specific word or phrase bring? What challenges does he face? What can you observe about the veteran’s physical or emotional

conditions? What challenges if any does the soldier face returning to civilian life? What can you infer about the attitude of the community the veteran

returns to?

Each group can present their stanza to class or groups can rotate around the room to other stanzas and read what other students wrote and add more comments.

Go back to the anticipation guide and you initial reactions. Did you change your original thoughts? Explain why or why not by using information from the poem to support your position.

Activity

Write another stanza to the poem or create your own poem about veteran/s experiences during WWI.

The stanza/poem must should refer to one of the following: the veteran/s physical and emotional condition challenges the veteran/s faced in returning to civilian

life the attitude of the community the veteran returned to.

What is the American Red Cross?

Red Cross -American volunteers cared for the sick and wounded

Russia Withdraws 1917 civil unrest in Russia-due to lack of fuel &

food forces the Czar Nicholas II to abdicate his throne & the government to collapse

1917 5.5 million Russian soldiers wounded, killed, or taken prisoner, war weary they refused to fight any longer

1917 Communist leader Vladimir Lenin seized power

1918 Lenin signed a truce with Germany, Treaty of Brest-Litovsk, ended war btw them

Collapse of Germany July 1918 The Allies &

Germans clashed at the second Battle of Marne

2 million American troops helped the Allied forces began to advance steadily toward Germany

Central Powers crumbled November 3, 1918 Austria-Hungary surrendered to the Allies

Allied VictoryGermany agreed to a

cease-fire and signed an armistice, or truce, that ended the war.

The armistice is signed on November 11, 1918 at 11:00 am ending World War I

Armistice- agreement to stop fighting

Opposition to War Effort Conscientious objector-

a person who opposes warfare on moral grounds. “Thou shall not kill.”

3,500 men obtained legal objector exemptions

500 objectors were court marshaled and imprisoned

America in WWI

US entered WWI in 1917, 3 years after the war started

Total war- countries devoted all of their resources to the war effort.

Government took control of the economy, told factories what & how much to produce

Every able bodied civilian was put to work

America in WWI Many goods were

in short supply Rationing- the

limiting of the amounts of goods people can buy imposed by the government when goods are in short supply

Free Speech During Wartime

Should students have the right to find fault with or speak out against the school? Why?

Do students have the right to oppose the school rules? Why?

Should American citizens have the right to find fault with, speak out against, or oppose government actions? Why? What about during wartime?

Espionage & Sedition Acts

June 15, 1917 Congress passed a law the prohibited any attempt to cause insubordination (unwillingness to accept orders from authority) among military personnel or for interfering with military draft or recruitment.

Should citizens be allowed to refuse the military draft? Why or why not?

Espionage & Sedition Acts Congress forbade Americans to use,

“disloyal, profane, scurrilous, or abusive language” about the US government, flag, or armed forces during wartime. It also allowed the Postmaster General to refuse to deliver mail to dissenters of government policy.

Do you think the Sedition Act is unconstitutional? (Does it violate the First Amendment right to freedom of speech?) Why or why not?

Schenck v. United States (1919)

Charles Schenck distributed leaflets that called the military draft a, “deed against humanity” & compared the draft to slavery. He urged draftees to assert their rights. Schenck was accused of violating the sedition act (actions or words intended to provoke or incite a rebellion against government authority.) Is he innocent or guilty?

Freedom of Speech During Wartime

Are some limits on freedom of speech necessary or should anyone be allowed to say anything they want whenever they want?

Can you think of any reasonable examples of limitations on freedom of speech at school, during war, etc.?

Espionage & Sedition Acts

Government suppressed anti war activity & censored news about the war

People feared honest reporting about the war would turn people against it

African Americans in WWI

400,000 African Americans served in segregated units and were assigned non combat duties

369th infantry was an all black regiment that saw more fighting than any other regiment

Henry Johnson and Needham Roberts received France’s Croix de Guerre “cross of war”

Women in WWI Could not

enlist Joined the

Army Corps of Nurses

Were denied rank, pay, & benefits

Served as nurses, secretaries, & phone operators

Women & the War

Thousands of women replaced men in factories, offices, & shops

Women built tanks, & munitions, plowed fields, paved streets, and ran hospitals

Supplied troops with food, clothing, & weapons

Propaganda Propaganda- One
