MILITARISM In the 1890’s a European “arms race” developed Countries felt they needed large standing armies –increased patriotism and prestige of a country What is Ironic about this statement? “The entire able-bodied population are preparing to massacre one another; though no one, it is true, wants to attack, and everybody protest his love of peace” …It only requires some unforeseen incident….to blow all of Europe sky-high” Frederic Passy 1895

ALLIANCES Growing rivalries had led to many alliances Irony: The alliance system in Europe was designed to “keep the peace”

IMPERIALISM Europe competes for colonies in Africa & Asia Produced tension between European powers –especially between Germany & France

NATIONALISM People become very Loyal to their Country Perhaps “loyal to a fault” citizens

Otto von Bismarck Unified Germany through War ( ) Defeated France in Franco-Prussian War (1870) Wanted peace but Felt France wanted “revenge” Attempted to isolate France through alliances German Chancellor “As long as it is without allies…France poses no danger to us” Bismarck 1887

Bismarck forms Triple Alliance 1882 Included: Germany Austria-Hungary Italy Bismarck later forms an alliance with Russia Designed to “protect” Germany from France
