World War 1 Propaganda /w Detailed Paragraph









World war 1 started from the assassination of the Archduke the soon heir to Austria-Hungary. The other countries got involved because of Alliances with other countries. Germany sided with Austria Hungary. At the time they used TrenchWarfare to battle on ground. There were huge disadvantages for this type of warfare because of infections from the trenches and can be easily Routed. New weapons came out during the War Two of them were Mustard Gas and the Machine Gun Turrets that can mow down hundreds of enemies with just one soldier. America came into the war when the British intercepted a call from Germany to Mexico the Zimmermann telegram attempting to make a alliance and take over The U.S through the South. This made Wilson angry because they used the U.S Communication line to contact Mexico. This was when U.S declares War on Germany and Sides With Britain. He began training troops immediately but he didn't have a plan of how he would fight the German soldiers.Wilson forced a draft because not enough Volunteers enlisted into the War.When the U.S sent three million troops into Europe and it made enough of a difference to push back German soldiers. America saved Europe from being Defeated by German and Austria forces. Russia couldn't help allied powers because they were having Civil Struggles.Now Germany had to pay for being the cause of the war and this is when the World gets worse. Adolf hitler one of the Fired soldiers became pennyless and made the Nazi party. Causing Riots on the streets he was arrested and sent to jail and let out them same year. During his time in prison he wrote how he would conquer the world and thought that god chose him to rule Germany. He became Germany's Dictator and would later lead to a problem. Limited to 100,000 soldiers he had planes being built in Japan and Trained Soldiers in Soviet Russia. For the next couple Years Adolf Hitler prepares for war.








The Volunteer poster was to help get people to jointhe War and let you choose what Branch of serviceyou would be in.This propaganda is trying to persuade by giving you options. This poster targeted Plain Folk.






















Its trying to get people to not vote being in the War. It's effective because it's trying to show how e war is making people sad. This is targeting Plain Folk of America
