1. Yes, I believe it was right for us not to join the war because we didn’t have any provocation yet. Seeing as France had their behinds handed to them in WWI, I don’t see how the fact that they were in the war had any effect on us not joining in yet. Plus, we were out of the war area, anyway. Everything going on in Europe had nothing to do with us.…
One reason that the United States should have went to war with Germany, is because of the sinking of the Lusitania and the Sussex. “Germany announced that it was beginning unrestricted warfare . This meant that Germany would attack any ships attempting to bring good to England or France within weeks German submarines began sinking United States merchant vessels, killing 23 American Citizens” (Document 5, paragraph 4). Due to the sinking many lives were lost, including innocent American citizens. This caused…
Just like our founding fathers, Franklin Delano Roosevelt decided the United States of America should stay neutral when chaos was erupting in Europe during the 1930s and 1940s. Throughout the history of the United States, America has tried to stay neutral and isolated from world conflicts, and World War II was no different. The decision to remain neutral by Roosevelt affected the United States economically, politically, and socially. Franklin Delano Roosevelt's policies on neutrality failed, ultimately forcing the United States to enter World War II.…
During World War I, the United States attempted to stay out of the war. However, they had many reasons as to why they chose to stay neutral, the cost of war is very expensive, both financially and in the cost of losing lives. There was also a concern of their side losing the war. Continuing, the U.S. felt that it was a European problem and the U.S. did not really need to get involved. Lastly, there was the issue of trade.…
The United States did not want to be involved in a second world war. They did everything they could including signing the Kellogg-Briand Pact along with sixty-two other countries, passing a series of Neutrality Acts, and isolating themselves from other countries. As America continued to grow and become totally isolated, they ran into conflict. The isolationism put an effect on President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s foreign policy. To solve this, President Roosevelt strongly spoke out against isolationism.…
The United States before and after the beginning of World War II prided itself on independence and isolation from foreign affairs. The U.S. already had to intervene in World War I, helping to create the Treaty of Versailles against Germany, and did not wish to repeat history in World War II. Germany, being angry of this treaty, began an uprising under the authority of German Chancellor Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party. Revolts spread throughout all of Europe, causing the creation of various alliances, mainly the Allied and Axis Powers. The United States still held its standpoint of isolationism and did not interfere with or support any war effort; that is, until Japan made an attempt to seize China, which was a strong trade nation for the U.S.…
World War II was the deadly war in history because , It cost a lot money, damaged, killed more people than world war I, and caused more far-reaching changes than any other war in history. World War Two was a fight against evil, the totalitarian, racist, militaristic German state, headed by Adolf Hitler. “It was a war against an enemy of unspeakable evil” meaning it was so evil that there’s no word to describe it. How did the United States become involved in World War 2? reason why U.S. entered in WWII because it wanted to defend the principle of nonintervention in the affairs of other countries?.…
The United States was right to enter WWI because Germany was sinking America’s ships although they were neutral, the U.S. was being plotted against by Germany, and Germany would’ve won the war. Germany was sinking and would’ve kept sinking America’s boats, although they were neutral. Document 1 states, “…use its submarines to sink every vessel…
Because of World War 1, many American were thinking “No more war”. Therefore, America was neutrality nation at that time. There are two reasons why the U.S wouldn’t join in the war without Pearl Harbor.…
America had already seen one world war, and they weren’t prepared for another. Originally, America wanted nothing to do with the second world war, and they were not fully recovered from the first world war. America was not ready financially, for the most part, and supplies were cut down and needed to be replenished. Once America joined the war, it was once they were ready to, and they were also pushed to no other choice.…
World War II was by far the most destructive wars in the U.S. history. It impacted the United States socially, economically, and killed more people in any other war. World war II caused women to join the working force which was a huge step in women's rights and showed how huge the government's role was in this war was. The United States is one of the main reasons that the Allies won the war. At the end of World War I all of the blame was put onto Germany. Germany was given many restrictions and because of this Hitler started to rise. During World war II there was two major alliances: The Axis powers and The Allies. The Axis powers were: Germany, Japan, and . The Allies were: Great Britain, the United States, France(?) and the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union ended up joining…
In World War 2, should the United States have stayed out of the war or should they have joined sooner? The United States should have joined the war sooner. If the U.S. would have joined the war sooner, than the impact it had on the U.S. may not have been as bad. At the beginning of the war Germany had taken over many countries including France and Poland. The invasion of Poland marked the beginning of the war on September 1st, 1939.…
The United States was justified in entering WWI because it held ties to the countries involved, Germany was becoming increasingly hostile, and in the end, when America won the war for their allies,…
There were reports that our involvement in World War I was done to help our industries make money. Americans had no interest in getting involved in a war for that reason. Americans also weren’t psychologically ready for another war. World War I ended in 1918, and we weren’t mentally prepared for being involved…
