World War I Aim: Identify the coming of the Great War What were the causes of WWI?

Militarism Political policy that is dominated by the military and the competitive buildup of arms

Imperialism and nationalism led to increased production of goods and economic stability in these countries This resulted in an arms race The aggressive attitude of this policy drove them into producing more weaponry, such as strong navies and armored vehicles.

Germany v. Great Britain These two powers escalated the arms race by increasingly building their navies Survival of the Fittest Social Darwinism

The alliances of Europe were formed for protection against each other. However, the Triple Entente and the Triple Alliance very quickly took aggressive postures towards one another.Triple EntenteTriple Alliance This is due in large part to the lack of any global organization designed to promote peace among the nations of the world. Alliances Triple Entente- Britain, France, Russia Triple Alliance- Austria-Hungary, Germany, Italy

Imperialism How was imperialism a result of industrialization? Why did nations compete for colonies? CAUSED Tension between European Nations

Nationalism “Aggressive Nationalism” –French were defeated in Franco- Prussian War and they wanted Revenge Germans on the other hand were proud of their victory Ethnic Rivalries
