1 Period 7: World War I

2 Neutrality to War In 1914 war breaks out among European nations after Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife are assassinated by Gavrilo Princip President Woodrow Wilson declares that the U.S. would remain neutral The U.S. will stay out of foreign wars Many Americans believed in Isolationism That the nation should remain isolated from Europeans conflicts We must be impartial in thought as well as in action. ~Woodrow Wilson

3 Causes of WWI M.A.I.N. Militarism: preparing for war; European nations needed vast military strength to protect their colonial/imperial holdings Alliances: Public and Secret European Alliances Imperialism: vast empires in foreign lands which increased competition for more territory and greater economic gain Nationalism: strong pride in your country; colonies wanted independence from the colonizing countries

4 The Alliances Central Powers: Germany Austria-Hungary Ottoman Empire (Turkey) Japan The Allies: Russia France Serbia Great Britain United States of America

5 American Neutrality President Wilson declared the U.S. to be neutral However - many average U.S. citizens began to choose sides Propaganda used to sway opinions Most supported the Allies (Britain and France) Wilson's cabinet, and many businesses supported going to war on the side of the Allies Think on this: Why would business owners support going to war?

6 American Neutrality? Germany announced that it would begin using U-boats to attack all vessels, including merchant ships, in British waters Stopped the Allies from receiving supplies from foreign countries This unrestricted submarine warfare drew protests from the U.S.

7 American Neutrality? a German U-boat sank the British passenger liner Lusitania Killed almost 1,200 passengers including 120 Americans the French ship Sussex, was torpedoed by a German U-boat causing several American injuries Germany and the U.S. signed the Sussex Pledge in which Germany promised not to sink anymore merchant ships without warning This kept the U.S. out of the war, and helped Wilson win reelection in 1916 February 1, 1917, Germans began unrestricted warfare again.

8 U.S. Declares War Germany tried to enlist the help of Mexico in fighting the U.S. if the U.S. entered the war Germany sent a telegram to Mexico urging them to join the fight against the U.S. and in return Germany would ensure that Mexico would receive land that once belonged to them that the U.S. took. The Zimmerman Note convinced many Americans that they needed go to war against Germany Early Germany resumed unrestricted submarine warfare Sank six U.S. ships Pres. Wilson was backed into a corner Declared war on Germany in April 1917 Joined the Allies

9 April 6, 1917: President Wilson signs the declaration of war after the U-boats sunk the U.S. ships: City of Memphis, Illinois, and the Vigilancia. TO WAR!

10 The War at Home Liberty Bonds were sold to finance the war People were encouraged to increase efficiency in food production and distribution to reduce waste. (Recycling) Daylight Savings Time introduced to move clock one hour ahead so the need for artificial light would be reduced thus saving energy. Women and African Americans found work that had once been filled by white men who had gone to war.

11 Draftees and Volunteers At the beginning of the war, the US only had 120,000 men in the military. Congress passed the Selective Service Act in 1917 so that they could draft men for military service. Because this war was a popular one, people didn t protest the draft.

12 Great Migration Northern factories needed workers during the war for two main reasons: Many white workers joined the war effort or were drafted Nearly all immigration from Europe stopped To replace these workers, African Americans left the South and moved into many Northern cities Looking for factory jobs The movement became known as the Great Migration Between 300,000 and 500,000 African-Americans moved North

13

14 Espionage Act Passed in 1917 the Espionage Act: Established penalties and prison time for aiding the enemy Penalized disloyalty, or interference with the war effort The Espionage Act was expanded in 1918 to make it illegal for any public opposition to the war The Supreme Court also limited American s freedom of speech 1 st Amendment Right Schenck v. U.S. Upheld Espionage Act of 1917

15 Eugene Debs Leader of the American Railway Union (ARU) Socialist leader who ran for president in 1912 What is a Socialist? A person who believes that the government should own industries (railroads, utilities) A nation s wealth should be more evenly distributed in order to alleviate suffering

16 The Allies won the war in 1918 Allies Win! The Big Four Leaders from the U.S., Britain, France, and Italy Held meetings to decide the fate of Post- War Europe

17 Wilson s Fourteen Points Wilson presented his plan for peace, called the Fourteen Points to Congress -In the first 5 points he wanted all countries to have: 1. free trade 2. freedom of the seas 3. disarmament 4. open diplomacy (negotiations) 5. adjustments of colonial claims These five points were what Wilson felt caused World War

18 Wilson s Fourteen Points The next 8 points dealt with self-determination The final point called for the creation of the League of Nations, an organization which would help settle disagreements between member countries. Many countries viewed the Fourteen Points as being too lenient on Germany

19 The Treaty of Versailles The Treaty was signed by Germany in 1919, and punished Germany for starting the war Germany would have to: -dismantle their army and navy -pay war reparations of $33 billion (which they did not have) -Admit guilt for causing the war -Germany was not allowed to place any troops in the Rhineland, the strip of land, 50 miles wide, next to France. -The Treaty left Germany in shambles which would ultimately lead to the rise of Adolf Hitler two decades later. Most of Wilson s Fourteen Points were dismissed by the other leaders, with the exception of the Fourteenth Point

20 The Toll Europeans are estimated to have lost 8 million soldiers and sailors. This averages out to 5,000 soldiers killed each day. Germany, Austria-Hungary, Russia and France all lost more than 1 million. Great Britain lost just under 900,000. The Civilian Toll Millions of civilians died during and after the war. From starvation, disease, and war-related injuries. The Ottoman Empire performed genocide on the Armenians in their empire. This continued into the 1920s.

21 League of Nations Wilson s League of Nations was voted down by the U.S. Congress in Many Congressmen worried that it made the U.S. too involved in European affairs

22 Prohibition The 18 th Amendment took effect in 1920 banning the manufacturing, sale, and transportation of alcohol Supporters of prohibition thought that it would reduce unemployment, domestic violence, and poverty. Women s Christian Temperance Union sought to prohibit the consumption of alcohol. Unintended effect of prohibition was organized crime that illegally supplied people with alcohol.

23 The Amendment was extremely difficult to enforce so that by 1933, the 21 st Amendment was passed repealing the 18 th Amendment 18 th Amendment

24 19 th Amendment (1920) Women s Suffrage: The right to vote Women s suffrage movement groups originally tied their cause to that of African-American suffrage The right to vote added to the shifting roles of women in society
