World War I

 


  World War I has four major causes. The four major causes are Militarism, Imperialism, Nationalism, and Alliances. Militarism is the belief that the nation needs a large military force. Imperialism is the practice of powerful countries using their influence to control less powerful countries. Nationalism loyalty and devotion to a nation,especially a sense of national consciousness putting ones nation and culture above all others. Last but not least, Alliances which is an organization of people or countries involved in a pact or treaty . 


     The United Stared got involved in World War I because of this one important event. There was this ship called the Lusitania Ship. The ship belonged to the British. This ship , the Lusitania Ship, was sunk by the Germans and the United Stated got mad because there were 128 American in that ship , therefore they got involved. 


     There was a peace settlement after World War I.  Wislon's Fourteen Points were  his three goal that he wanted to achieve .
