Mark: \nMoney. Normally means the silver mark, a measure of silver, generally eight ounces, accepted throughout medieval western Europe. Although they were sometimes "clipped" or "debased," the English silver penny contained a standard weight of silver and so could be traded across Europe. In England the mark was worth thirteen shillings and four pence, ie. two thirds of £1. Equivalent to present value of the Euro.

An extract from President Wilson’s speech to Congress requesting US entry into WW1:\n\n…Peace cannot be had without concession and sacrifice. There can be no sense of safety and equality among the nations if great preponderating armaments are henceforth to continue here and there to be built up and maintained…\n\nAnd in holding out the expectation that the people and government of the United States will join the other civilized nations of the world in guaranteeing the permanence of peace upon such terms as I have named I speak with the greater boldness and confidence because it is clear to every man who can think that there is in this promise no breach in either our traditions or our policy as a nation, but a fulfillment, rather, of all that we have professed or striven for.\n\nThe world must be made safe for democracy. Its peace must be planted upon the tested foundations of political liberty. We have no selfish ends to serve. We desire no conquest, no dominion. We seek no indemnities for ourselves, no material compensation for the sacrifices we shall freely make. We are but one of the champions of the rights of mankind. We shall be satisfied when those rights have been made as secure as the faith and the freedom of nations can make them. \n\n\nThe entire text of the speech can be found at: http://www.mtholyoke.edu/acad/intrel/ww18.htm

The Treaty Of Versailles laid down the penalties which Germany had to suffer for starting World War 1 (or you might say for losing WW1). These inlcude penalties in the form of payments of money & resources such as coal, a limit on the size of their armed forces & the prohibition of those armed forces entering certain parts of the country such as the Saarland (a coal rich area).\n\nThe call for the heads of "the Versailles traitors" (ie the beaten German leaders of 1918 who signed the treaty) was one of the slogans which helped the Nazis into power.

It is don't take any wooden nickles and it refers to a period of time just after WWI. Because the metal nickle is used in military applications, United States mint ran out of the metal. I order to satusfy the law for printing nickles wooden 5 cent pieces were produced for a short period of time. \n\nPeople thought it was a joke that the wooden coin was not worth anything hence the saying "Don't take any wooden nickles."

The extent to which we satisfied our objectives was less than satisfactory.  We did put a halt to German submarine aggression in the North Atlantic, but Wilson's goals of forming a working League of Nations and having the US as a charter member were only partially realized.  The Leauge was formed, but the US Congress failed to adopt the Leaue's charter.  On the bright side, the US exited the war with relatively few casualties and its economic and physical infrastructures intact.  We had established ourselves as a super power.

When soldiers in the "old days" loaded thier large guns, the magizines were 27 feet long, and when firing at the enemies, they would say "give them the whole nine yards" to signify shooting the entire round. So in everyday use, it would probably mean, "Give them all youve got!"\n\n\n\nAlso, I found this information on the subject!\nThe phrase "the whole nine yards" means "completely, the whole, everything" - eg:\n\n"I was mugged. They took my wallet, my keys, my shoes, my coat - the whole nine yards!"\n\nThe origins of the expression are unknown, but various theories are popularly held as to the root of it. One of the more common of these is that the expression dates from the Second World War, where the "nine yards" was the full length of a machine-gun ammunition belt, and to "go the full nine yards" was to use it up in its entirety. The expression, however, has only been dated back to 1966 (in U.S. Air Force slang recorded in Vietnam) and it is unlikely it could have been in common use in the 1940s without being recorded either then or in the next twenty years.\n\nThe most likely origin dates back to the early days of full-masted sailing schooners, (cica.1400's), where the captains cry to "let go the whole nine yards" meant to unfurl all the sails in their entirety to take advantage of favourable winds. The three-masted ocean-going vessels of the day had sails that totalled 9 square yards of material.\n\nThe phrase could also be attributed to the tailoring industry, in which a quality suit of clothing required nine yards of material. To tailor a quality suit "takes the whole nine yards."\n\nOther suggested origins have included sources as diverse as the size of cement mixers, the length of bridal veils, the manufacture of kilts, the length of cloth bolts, and the structure of certain sailing vessels (where "yard" is short for yardarm, not for the distance).\n\nAnother explanation is that the term is a sarcastic reference to American football, where ten yards is the length of a first down. With running nine yards being no real achievement, to say that someone ran 'the whole nine yards' would be to say that they almost achieved something.\n\n\n\n-Cin
