The Archduke is killed!
On June 28, 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand, heir to the throne of Austria-Hungary, was riding in a car in Sarajevo (the capital of Bosnia)
Gavrilo Princip, who was a member of the Serbian terrorist group known as the Black Hand, shot a killed the archduke and his wife Sophie
Why? The Black Hand wanted Bosnia to break away from Austria-Hungary and join Serbia

War is declared!!!
Within days of the archduke’s assassination, the system of alliances already in place began to be enacted.
Soon, the major powers of Europe were set to go to war against one another
Huge armies began to mobilize, or prepare for war.

Who’s fighting?
The war pitted the Central Powers – Germany, Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria, and the Ottoman (Turkish) Empire against the Allied Powers – France, Britain, and Russia… Italy (1915) and the US
In time 21 other nations would join the Allies.
![Page 19: WORLD WAR I](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070411/568147cd550346895db50b18/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Stalemate in the Trenches
By November 1914, the German advance and the Allied counterattack created a deadly stalemate.– A stalemate is a deadlock in which neither side is
strong enough to defeat the other.
As a result, soldiers dug in, creating a huge maze of trenches.
The area between the trenches was called “no man’s land”….why do you think?

Wilson’s Peace Efforts
Wilson felt that the United States, as a neutral nation in the conflict, could lead the warring nations to peace.
His efforts failed. He was able to win reelection in 1916 with
the campaign slogan – “He kept us out of war!”
![Page 33: WORLD WAR I](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070411/568147cd550346895db50b18/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Submarine warfare
Germany had a new weapon that was wreaking havoc on the high seas.– This weapon was called submarine, or U-boat.
In an attempt to stop supplies from reaching Britain, German U-boats torpedoed and sank several merchant, or supply, ships.
Many of these ships were from neutral nations, including the U.S.
What do you think? Is it true that all is fair in love and war?

Germany forces America into the war
Two incidents forced the United States to declare war against Germany:– Sinking of the Lusitania– Zimmerman telegram
![Page 36: WORLD WAR I](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070411/568147cd550346895db50b18/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Cont.
The Lusitania was a British passenger ship that was sunk by a German U-boat on May 7, 1915. 1,200 people were killed, including 128 Americans.
The Zimmerman telegram was a secret message sent by the Germans to Mexico urging them to attack the U.S. if they declared war on Germany.– In return, Germany would help Mexico win back their
lost territory in the American Soutwest.

America Declares War On April 2, 1917, President Wilson went before
Congress to ask for a declaration of war. He declared that “The world must be safe for
democracy.” Congress voted for war 455 to 56 and on April 6,
1917 Wilson signed the declaration of war. For the Allies, America’s entry could not have
come at a better time. A revolution in Russia caused them to sign a separate peace with the Central Powers and they exited the war.

America mobilizes
The U.S. was able to raise an army by passing the Selective Service Act on May 18, 1917.
It required all men from 21 to 30 to register for the military draft.– A draft is a law requiring people of a certain
age to serve in the military.
![Page 42: WORLD WAR I](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070411/568147cd550346895db50b18/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
When a country goes to war, how does life change at home? How does a country prepare for
war?

Funding the War Effort
The government had to prepare to feed and arm the troops that would be fighting over in Europe.
In order to pay for the war, Americans bought Liberty Bonds, which was money lent to the government to pay for the war
Raising money wasn’t enough to prepare the nation – business, government, and industry had to coordinate their efforts

Conserving Resources
The Food Administration and Fuel Administration were in charge of the production and supply of these essential resources.
Efforts by these administrations were huge successes.
Example: Victory Gardens

Organizing Industry
The War Industries Board (WIB), headed by Bernard Baruch, had overall responsibility for allocating scarce materials, establishing production priorities, and setting prices.
This was the government’s central war agency. Not all industry’s agreed with this – steel
example. Does this sound like laissez-faire?????
![Page 48: WORLD WAR I](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070411/568147cd550346895db50b18/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Mobilizing Workers Because of the draft, there was a shortage of labor. As
a result, union leaders took the opportunity to strike in order to get better wages and working conditions.
To prevent further strikes, President Wilson formed the National War Labor Board (NWLB) to arbitrate disputes between owners and workers
Women joined the workforce to supplement the lack of laborers.
Also, almost 500,000 African-Americans and thousands of Mexican-Americans migrated to the northern cities to work in factories.– This was called the Great Migration.

Suppressing Opposition There was much opposition to the war voiced
across the country. In response, Congress passed the Espionage Act
and Sedition Act These laws outlawed acts of treason and made it
a crime to “utter, print, write, or publish any disloyal…or abrasive language” criticizing the government, the flag, or the military.
What does this go against????? Despite opposition to the laws, the Supreme
Court upheld the laws in Schenck v. United States

What is propaganda?
Propaganda is the spreading of ideas that help a cause or hurt an opposing cause.– It is essentially brainwashing because the
purpose is to alter one’s opinion about a certain topic through visuals or audio.
![Page 58: WORLD WAR I](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070411/568147cd550346895db50b18/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Propaganda Assignment
Your assignment is two-fold:– 1st: Look through a magazine and find an
advertisement that you think could be deemed as propaganda. Cut the add out of the magazine. On a separate piece of paper, explain why you think it is propaganda.
– 2nd: On a separate piece of paper, create a wartime advertisement (propaganda) attempting to recruit Americans to help the war effort. This can be by joining the army or buying liberty bonds.

Russia makes a separate peace
Russia withdrew from the war in March 1918 following a revolution of the Bolsheviks led by Vladimir Lenin.
Lenin embraced the ideas of Karl Marx, who stated that the working class would unite to overthrow the ruling class.
This would lead to a classless society with no private ownership – THIS IDEA IS COMMUNISM
Russia signed the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk, ending Russia’s participation in the war.

Americans arrive in France
Over 1,000,000 American troops arrived in France in 1918 ready to fight.
They were led by General John J. Pershing. The U.S. wanted to have an independent role in
the peace talks and therefore operated as separate units from other soldiers already fighting in the trenches.
They were called the American Expeditionary Force (AEF)
![Page 62: WORLD WAR I](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070411/568147cd550346895db50b18/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Harlem Hell Fighters The U.S. allowed very
few African Americans to train for combat.
However, one unit fought alongside the French and earned valor and respect on the battlefield.– These brave men
became known as the Harlem Hell Fighters

The Battle of the Argonne Forest
Following a failed German offensive in mid-July 1918, the Allied attempted one last offensive to destroy the retreating German forces.
After 47 days and 100,000 casualties, American troops won the Battle of the Argonne Forest.
Similar victories by British, French, and Belgian forces made it look like the war was finally about to come to end

Armistice Ends the War Germany offered an armistice to the Allies.
– An armistice is an agreement to stop fighting. The Allies agreed on 2 conditions:
1. Germany had to accept the proposed peace plan by Woodrow Wilson2. The German emperor had to abdicate, or give up power
Following the abdication of the emperor, the new German leaders agreed to the armistice terms.– The war ended at 11 A.M. on November 11,
1918 – The eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month
