Social Studies 11 Unit 2 Canada Emerges in the 20th Century The War Comes to a Close

Turning Points Russian Revolution Czar Nicholas abdicated in March 1917 Oct 1917 the Russian provisional government was overthrown by the Bolsheviks / Led by Lenin The Bolsheviks signed a peace treaty with Germany Germany now free to move troops to Western Front

The United States Enters the War Because of the unrestricted Uboat attacks, the US enters the war Sinking of the Lusitania? US joined almost two years after the sinking Another theory: US entered the war to protect its investment. Several large loans were given to Britain and France and the US needed a victory to get money back

The Final Phase The Germans with the additional soldiers from the Eastern Front push into France, getting to within 75 km of Paris The British naval blockades (strangling Germany’s war machine), and US entry into the war prevent further advance

The Hundred Days The Canadians, led by Arthur Currie helped force the Germans east As the Germans fled they destroyed much of France’s countryside/further angering the French The German Kaiser fled to Holland Armistice was signed Nov th month, 11th day, 11th hour – Remembrance Day

Paris Peace Conference Canada participated as a full member (sat along side Britain, not “one row back”) USA wanted the plan to emphasize forgiveness but France and Belgium wanted payback Treaty of Versailles sets the terms of Germany’s surrender and sets the scene for the next 20 years in Europe the harsh punishment of the treaty would eventually lead Germany to seek revenge under Hitler

Treaty of Versailles 1919 (W.A.R.M.L.) W. War Guilt – the Germany had to assume guilt for starting war A. Armed Forces – German army restricted to men / No U-boats/ No airforce R. Reparations – Germany had to pay about 30 Billion dollars M. Map Redrawn - Territories Lost / new country of Poland created/ Saar Coal Fields and Alsace and Lorraine given (back) to France L. League of Nations - Brainchild of Wilson ( USA didn’t join) Germany was not invited

The League of Nations Britain, France, Canada and other smaller nations join No military capacity / economic sanctions only (no way to truly punish transgressors) Wilson had stroke and was unable to push for the League in US Congress Organization was severely weakened without American presence

The Aftermath Western Europe in ruins after the war Crops/infrastructure were destroyed Starvation swept through Europe Spanish Flu swept across Europe and was carried home to Canada by soldiers More people died of influenza epidemic than did on the Western Front Aggressive stance against Germany laid groundwork for World War II
