Explain how the industrializaion of warfare will affect the outcome of world war one?

The industrialisation of warfare had a great impact on World War I. Your essay should explore:\n\n* use of modern factories to meet the need of the combatants on the field and logistics - one of the reasons Russia dropped out was the failure to meet demands of the troops for example;\n\n* use of railways to transport troops to the front;\n\n* use of modern technology such as aircraft and tanks for the first time - it was their use in an integrated manner by  Allied commanders such as Sir John Monash of Australia that would eventually lead to victory in 1918;\n\n* growing role for Government: Government's share of GDP exceeded 50% in Germany and France and appraoached that in the UK and introduction of higher tax systems such as income tax to finance the war.

the treaty of versailles was the big outcome of WWI. It put a whole bunch of restrictions on Germany, including the war guilt clause (they admitted to starting the war)\nThe main terms of the Versailles Treaty were: \n\n(1) the surrender of all German colonies as League of Nations mandates; \n\n(2) the return of Alsace-Lorraine to France; \n\n(3) cession of Eupen-Malmedy to Belgium, Memel to Lithuania, the Hultschin district to Czechoslovakia, \n\n(4) Poznania, parts of East Prussia and Upper Silesia to Poland;\n\n(5) Danzig to become a free city; \n\n(6) plebiscites to be held in northern Schleswig to settle the Danish-German frontier; \n\n(7) occupation and special status for the Saar under French control; (8) demilitarization and a fifteen-year occupation of the Rhineland; \n\n(9) German reparations of £6,600 million; \n\n(10) a ban on the union of Germany and Austria; \n\n(11) an acceptance of Germany's guilt in causing the war; \n\n(11) provision for the trial of the former Kaiser and other war leaders; \n\n(12) limitation of Germany's army to 100,000 men with no conscription, no tanks, no heavy artillery, no poison-gas supplies, no aircraft and no airships; \n\n(13) the limitation of the German Navy to vessels under 100,000 tons, with no submarines;

It has everything to do with the Treaty of Versailles. As it's name points out, this is a treaty signed in the Hall of Mirrors in the French city of Versailles. It was the peace treaty that officially ended World War I and unofficially started World War II.\n\nOne of the terms of this treaty was the creation of the League of Nations, whose goal would be to prevent another world war. Other parts of the treaty stated that Germany was to be fully blamed for World War I and because of this, Germany was demanded to pay up all damages calculated of WWI. Also, Germany was denied having an airforce, a navy and was only allowed to have a limited land army. It's colonies were taken away and other damages were also imposed. In a nutshell, Germany was brought to it's knees and into a depression.\n\nThis helped bring about the rise of Hitler who promised to tear up the hated treaty. Of course, Germans supported him and once he arranged for virtually limitless power, it was too late. Nations part of the League of Nations were also fooled by Hitler. They allowed Hitler to take over Austria-Hungary, which belong to Germany prior to WWI. The League of Nations did not disagree much with Hitler's request to undo the Treaty of Versailles. They agreed with him that the terms were much too harsh.\n\nIt was only until Hitler marched into Poland that everyone realized what was happening. But of course, that set foot into a much bloodier World War.\n\nReally, the League of Nations failed to prevent WWII by allowing a genius psychopath to manipulate them. (This is my opinion.)\n\nHope this novel of mine answers your question.

Wilson's idea behind the Fourteen Points was to end the Great War in a way that might not lead to a Second Great War by eliminating what he saw as the systemic problems that led to the war. However, the greatest and ultimately insurmountable problem was the idea of "Peace Without Victors."\n\nOn November 11, 1918, as the guns fell silent, over 8 million men had been killed and literally trillions of dollars of property damage had been done. The damage to France's economic infrastructure was so great that it would not recuperate for decades, even if peace had lasted. The leaders of the victorious allies felt that morally and realistically they could not go to their suffering people and ask them to "chalk this up as a lesson learned." Someone had to pay, and at the end of the day, the war had to have accomplished something, no matter how far of a stretch that might be.\n\nWhen Wilson arrived at Paris for the peace conference, he was hailed all across Europe as a saviour of mankind. At the time, those accolades might even have been heartfelt from the people, but the leaders of the European allies knew the feeling would not last forever. The people had been suffering through four years of privation and nightmare and just wanted the war to end, no matter what the cost. As the years would go by, however, and they saw their neighbor on wooden legs and their children living in squalor, the people would very soon come to believe that their momentary feeling of forgiveness to the enemy was actually a moment of weakness, and come to the realization they had been tricked.\n\nAt Versailles, when Germany had withdrawn its army from France, her government was in chaos, her people in revolution and her allies pulled apart, the Western Allies dictated their terms.\n\n1-The war had to have accomplished something: The War Guilt Clause. Germany was forced to declare that the war had been entirely the fault of her government and their actions. The war had thus stopped a raging tyrant from conquering all of Europe and forcing his will on innocent people.\n\n2-Someone had to pay: Reparations. By declaring that the war was her fault, Germany found herself in the moral position of assuming the financial responsibility for the damages. This was vital to the Western Allies, because Germany was the only member of the Central Powers whose territory was still intact and whose industrial capacity was still in place. Austria, which had actually started the war, was torn to shreds and its industrial facilities were being looted by revolutionaries; the Turkish empire was in the hands of rebelling Arab tribes and occupying armies; Germany was forced to pay because she was the only one who COULD pay. The people of Germany were forced to sign a blank check: the Western Allies literally did not know the exact amount of the damage, and would fill it in later. Because France's economy was in ruins, Germany would pay in products, not in money.\n\n3-The next war had to be prevented: Military Concessions. By declaring that the war was her fault, Germany provbed she had been a danger to the safety of the world. The teeth of the wolf would be pulled. Her army would be gutted, her navy surrendered and she was to be denied the acquisition of modern weaponry. Large swaths of territory adjoining the border with France would be devoid of military activity, both offensive and defensive. Also, this would allow France to militarily occupy productive areas of Germany if she tried to default on her debt (France would occupy the Saar region because Germany had not delivered enough telephone poles that month!)\n\nIn the United States, the Fourteen Points was opposed for different reasons. An earlier answer is partly correct, Henry Cabbot Lodge did oppose the League of Nations in part because he had made a deal with Wilson not to use the War for political ammunition. When Wilson went to the conference he brought no Republicans with him, and when he ret

It was called the Great War to set it apart from the wars fought previously. It was the first war where nations conducted "total war", where all parts of society, government, and the economy were controlled and focused on the war effort. In fact, economists used to "pooh pooh" such a war, saying it would bankrupt any nation foolish enough to try it. It had the highest casualties out of any war to date, it involved more nations than had every been involved in a conflict before, and it went on day in and day out for longer than the other wars did. It was the first industrial war.\n\nThen, along came World War II, which was very similar to World War I, and so gained the sobriquet (name) World War II, and the Great War was renamed World War I.\n\nIt was not called "The War to End All Wars" because it was felt that evil was defeated. It was called that because after experiencing the effects of such a war it was felt that no sane society would want to go through it again. This was partially true, giving rise to the appeasement of France and England in the late 1930's.\n\nHope this helps!

World War II: The Impact at Home\n\nThe quick fall of France to the German army in 1940 shook the strong pacifist sentiment of the American public. Suddenly, Great Britain alone stood between Nazi Germany and the United States. Once the United States was fully committed to the war in December of 1941, patriotism soared in American society. Americans' willingness to carry out blackout and civil defense drills; to recycle metals, paper, and even cooking fats; to work longer hours, but to have fewer consumer goods to buy with their salaries demonstrated the nation's strong support for the war. There were political changes as well, as the country began to shift to the right. \n\nhttp://us.history.wisc.edu/hist102/lectures/lecture21.html\n\nWhat effects did WWII have on women in America?\n\nWomen began to do the jobs that the men used to do. They worked in factories, steel mills, and on fighter planes. A woman who worked in an industrial or manufacturing job was refered to as "Rosy the Riviter".\n\nWomen married earlier in life, had more children and relied much less on their husbands after the war. The divorce rate in the United States and Britain skyrocketed, compared to previous years. Women held higher paying jobs than in pre-war years, and this caused some conflict when men were discharged from the military and wanted their old jobs back, which were now held by women.\n\nWomen went into the workplace and never looked back. They took over factory jobs, drove trucks, flew military aircraft across the Atlantic Ocean to England, and numerous other jobs that had traditionaly been open only to men. Once the men returned from the war the women were more independant than ever and would never be content to sit at home again.\n\nWomen played the role of helping fabricate weapons and bombs and all the equipment the soldiers would need. Women never set foot on the battle field but they also were nurses and assistants and that helped alot since they needed medical treatments\n\nhttp://www.faqfarm.com/Q/What_effects_did_WWII_have_on_women_in_America

The primary advances were the airplane, submarine, machine gun, tank, and posionous gas.  The machine gun made the frontal assault very costly thus trenches were used to protect the soldiers.  These trenches were also lived in, which produced rat infestation, constantly wet conditions, and poor sanitation.  All of these will contribute to the spread of disease and trench foot which sometimes resulted in amputation and even death. To attack the machine guns the tank was developed and although early models were notoriously unreliable their use in the final months contributed to the Allied victory.  Poison gas will kill, cripple, and blind thousands.  Airplanes initially used only for scouting will later develop into fighters against other planes and bombers.  This will lead to some of the best known participants of the war and the glory of being a pilot (Red Baron, Rickenbaker).  Finally the submarine will spread the war to innocents on passenger ships and slow commerce to England and from the United States.  More importantly it was the German use of Unrestricted submarine Warfare (along with the Zimmerman note) that brought the US into the war.  It was the infusion of large numbers of Americans with their aggressive fighting ability that will be the deciding factor in the Allied victory.

There were several significances, political and military.\n\nPolitically, of course, it showed that Germany was not invulnerable and that air power was not going to conquer the world on its own. The Luftwaffe was shown to have vulnerabilities.\n\nMilitarily, Germany suffered losses in pilots and trained air crews that she could never recover from, while the losses in aircraft were temporary. New airplanes can be built relatively quickly, but the training of people is much more complicated. Every German airman who was lost over Britain was a permanent loss, because even if he survived the battle he could not avoid capture. If a British airman, on the other hand, were shot down and survived, he could be up in a new airplane in a matter of days.\n\nStrategically, the loss of the Battle of Britain meant that Operation Sealion (the conquest of England) could not go forward, and this would have several repercussions through the rest of the war. It would leave a large air platform within range of Germany's economic and industrial heartland from which Britain, and later the United States, could continuously launch bombing raids from. It left England as a powerful enemy force in Germany's flank which would have to be watched and defended against, thus diverting massive amounts of soldiers, weapons and industrial manpower into the ineffective West Wall. It would leave a springboard for Allied armies to eventually launch Overlord and bring about the cross-channel invasion. Because of the geography and terrain, Italy and the Balkans had been a serious drain on German capabilities but was not Churchill's 'Soft Underbelly.'

WW1 ended with the Treaty of Versailles.  The terms of the Treaty imposed harsh conditions on Germany.  Germany could not have a standing army, land was taken from Germany and the German nation was forced to pay huge sums in reparations.  The enconomy was experience hyperinflation.  This is where the money loses its value, almost to the point of being worthless.  People would ask to be paid at noon so they could run out and spend it---because by the end of the day their pay would only be worth half as much.  There are pictures of men pushing wheelbarrows FULL of German money down the street.\n\nHitler was a WW1 hero.  He saw the problems that Germany was facing under the unjust terms of the Versailles treaty.  He saw the wreck the economy was in.  There were no jobs for German citizens in the private sector, so Hitler created huge government projects that employed millions of Germans.  As the people went back to work, their apathy dissipated.  Hitler gained even more power, and in time was able to repudiate the Versailles Treaty and raise an army.\n\nthis is just the tip of the iceberg.  Read and study more about pre-WWII Germany.

G'day A B,\n\nThank you for your question.\n\nThe end of World War I saw the US recognised as a major power for the first time. It became the world's greatest creditor unlike today. It had relatively few casualties with 53,402 battle deaths and 63,114 other deaths in service.\n\nI have attached sources for your reference.\n\nRegards

Almost all wars involve economic resorces. Ideological subplots abound, however it's mostly resources. The command economy of the Soviet Union was incompatable with the modified free markets in the U.S. and Western Europe.  The arms race was significant but it was only an extension of the economic warfare.
