MAIN Causes Leading into WWI
(#12)
GIVE ME AN…
MILITARISM!
ALLIANCES!
IMPERIALISM!
NATIONALISM!
Militarism
the glorification of a military class or policies
EX: Germany glorified the military and instituted a national conscription
All the great powers of Europe spent large sums of $ on new weapons and warships.
Impact??
Alliances
Agreements between nations to come to the aid of another.
IMPACT?
Alliances may lessen the chance of war if…
On the other hand…
Imperialism
a policy of extending military and political control over other nations
European nations held colonies in Africa, Asia & the Pacific Islands.
Possible consequences?
Nationalism
aspiration for national independence or devotion to the interests of a particular
nation (TWO THINGS HERE!)
Czechs, Slavs & Poles desired Independence
France wanted to regain Alsace – Lorraine
The Balkans became the “powder keg” of Europe
So how did we get involved in WWI??
Events Leading into WWI (#13)
Based on stuff you already know- match up the picture with the event (talk it out with your group!)
Start putting these events in order AND answering questions (use your textbook)
In your journal you will have: EVENT NAME and then answers to your questions- EITHER write question and answer, or restate the question in your answer.
YOU ARE WORKING ON THIS TOGETHER- YOU ARE NOT SPLITTING THIS UP WITHIN YOUR GROUP- YOU NEED TO KNOW IT ALL, SO EVERYONE SHOULD BE LOOKING FOR A SPECIFIC EVENT TOGETHER AND THEN COME TOGETHER TO FIGURE OUT THE ANSWERS TO THE QUESTIONS. IF YOU ARE NOT CONTRIBUTING TO YOUR GROUP WORK, OR YOUR GROUP IS NOT WORKING THIS WAY- WE WILL MAKE THIS AN INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT.
