REMINDERS: NOTES CHECK next Tuesday (bring ‘em!)

Lecture 2: End of WWI Just add it on to the end of the last set of notes!

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? STALEMATE…people are dying in gruesome and horrifying numbers (both soldiers and civilians)  Discontent on the home front  A new player enters to change the tide

1. US Enters  U.S. - policy of isolation  Germany - policy of “unrestricted submarine warfare”

A. Lusitania Germany sinks the Lusitania (passenger ship…carrying some ammunition)

The Germans keep sinking ships… Including 3 American ships

B. The Zimmerman Note The Final Straw February 1917: British intercept a letter from Germany to Mexico  What does it say to make the Americans SO mad? “Oh no you didn’t!”

The Zimmerman Telegram

American public calls for war Sided with The Allies (why?) April 2, 1917 U.S. declares war on Central Powers “The world must be made safe for democracy…”

Add 2 questions/comments

2. The end of war  Central Powers imploding  1918 – one last push on the Western Front…fails… Exhausted!  Central Powers agree to an armistice

PEACE TREATIES… Central Powers lose…and everyone wants something different when drafting the treaty for peace. Step 1. What would the ALLIES want in the peace treaty (as the winners…)? What would the CENTRAL POWERS want (as the losers…)? Step 2. Write your OWN peace treaty that YOU THINK would be the best compromise AND would lead to a lasting peace. Step 3. What REALLY happened?

The Treaty of Versailles The End of World War I (Perpetual Peace???)

Actual Outcomes: Colonies: –Mandate System: Germany’s colonies “protected by” Allies (no self-determination!) Bye colonies! Thanks for the resources

Actual Outcomes: Military: –Germany had to: Reduce its army to 100,000 men Reduce navy to 6 war ships Get rid of submarines Destroy its airforce Subs, too?

Actual Outcomes: Reparations: –Germany had to pay $33 million in damage Whoa, that’s some cash!

Actual Outcomes: Empire: –Germany had to give land to Allies –Ottoman Empire dissolves (Mandate System for Syria, Iraq, Palestine, etc.)

Actual Outcomes: Keeping the peace: –President Wilson wanted a League of Nations to promote communication and avoid future wars –US refused to join Trying to keep me from coming back…

Flaws? Why did the Allies punish Germany so harshly?  What was the impact of Germany’s harsh punishment?

Do Now: Treaty of Versailles [paragraph] What do you think France and Britain’s attitude was toward Germany at the end of World War I? How do you think this attitude was reflected in the peace treaty that ended the war (the Treaty of Versailles)?
