World War I
Dangers of war:
Civilians who were non-combatants during this time died due to war. In the Ottoman Empire 2 million out of three million civilians died.
Trenches played a huge part in wars Trenches ran as much as 25,000 miles, and many soldiers died in the holes they dug out. over 15 million people were killed in war, and 20 million people wounded which is a substantial amount of people.
bobbed wire, machine guns, and bombs made the war very detrimental and many lives were lost within the blink of an eye. Many soldiers fought worried about the possibility of being buried alive
Dangers of diseases
Influenza disease broke out at the end of WWI, and killed three times the amount of people as in the war itself. So even after the war took place deaths still remained an issue due to the influenza pandemic.
common diseases were Dysentery, Typhus, and Cholera which spread quickly. These diseases during the time were very deadly and added to deaths caused by war
Militarism ex: The United States participated in these deadly wars, and they had weapons such as poisonous gas, tanks, machine guns, and submarines.
Many weapons were used that were essential to winning wars such as machine guns & the trenches which were a way to capture opposition
Imperialism: A country that expands their power/influence over other countries through diplomacy & dealing with other countries in ways that are effective.
Nationalism: When a country will do anything in their power to be the "better country"... (the feeling of one country being better than the other)
Alliances: Alliances were made to check the balance power between the nations. (something that has a mutual benefit)
Militarism: Maintaining a strong military, and have access to the newest weapons. Also being able to serve the country no matter the circumstances /condition.

Nationalism ex: The United States created a propaganda that said anyone who published or wrote anything negative about them would get arrested or will have a huge fine. This is nationalism because they wanted to be represented in the best way possible.
Imperialism ex: The British and French Empires colonized parts of Africa. Also Nations like France, Germany, and Great Britain sought out to expand their influence which led to a huge scramble.
Alliances ex: In 1907 France, Britain, and Russian reacted to the triple force by creating the triple entente
Militarism ex: Germany tried to compete in a Naval Race with Britain. They were competing to see who would have the most ships
Alliances ex: In 1882 Germany, Austro-Hungary, and Italy formed the triple alliance
Imperialism ex: The European States did a lot of scheming because they wanted to expand and control other people and their land.
Militarism ex: The British and French had a mass amount of soldiers in their army. In addition, each soldier carried 70 pounds of equipment, which a heavy load of a equipment.
Alliance ex: The assassination of Ferdinand is an example of the alliance system because his death caused a lot of conflict between a lot of the countries.
ptsd: soldiers suffered from ptsd because they were blasted unconsciously, and suffered from reoccurring memories of the tragic moment.
Role of women: women begin to take jobs that had open spaces due to the fact that majority of the men were in war.... this gave women a chance to protest and soon gain the same pay as men.
