Advanced American History
We resume our study of WWI today with an analysis of the causes of America's entrance into WWI. They are:
1. Economic and Cultural Ties with the Allies
2. German U-Boat Warfare
3. The thought, after the Russian Revolution in 1917, that this war was one pitting Democracies against Monarchies.
4. The Zimmerman Note
Finally, after a declaration of war in 1917, analyze the mobilization for war, consequences for opposition, and social changes in America resulting from war in Chapter 10.2.
Reminder: Read pages 301-04 and prep for "Quest" on Thursday.
