In this paper, I will discuss the article Reading to Write by Stephen King. I will examine the ideas he presents by citing the examples he uses. Additionally, I will give my own thoughts on his points and provide my own ideas of these topics. Lastly I will explain how I feel his logic not only effectively applies to the topic he is discussing, but how it is applicable to any chosen field a person may attempt to become successful in.…
vi. Reparations- payments that Germany was required to make as punishment for starting the war…
They fought threw the “The Declaration of the United Nations” in January 1943. All the nations fighting the Axis powers pledged to the organization. This organization was a peace organization. Later the organization was made into the United Nations. Roosevelt gave his priority more on the western European front.…
In 1918, Wilson drew up his Fourteen Points; he believed Article X, the League of Nations, was the most important. These points were incorporated in an international accord made at the Paris Peace Conference at Versailles. The Treaty of Versailles offered numerous ways to create harmony. Nevertheless, the U.S. neither joined the League of Nations nor signed the treaty. It was not the influence of the opponent forces of the U.S., conservative or liberal, that led to the absolute defeat of the Treaty of Versailles, but rather the political unawareness, incapability, and stubbornness of President Woodrow Wilson.…
America wanted to remain neutral at the beginning of the war because they believed in isolationism. Because of this many americans were resistant to joining the war but things like committees were created to help spark interest. However germany did not think america was neutral because we helped the allied powers by sending supplies to england. This policy with the allies hurt usv in a way because it kind of forced us into the war. We were also pulled into the war because of things like the zimmerman telegraph and the sinking of the lusitania, which killed many americans.…
After the long and deadly First World War, of which the U.S. had been embroiled in for over a year, people were finally ready for their soldiers to come home. Some were even ready for peace. However, many Europeans had lost everything in the war and were not ready for peace. They were ready for revenge. The Treaty of Versailles reflected those sentiments. Internationally, the battle over the terms of the Treaty of Versailles was between those, such as Woodrow Wilson, who wanted a “peace without victory” and those who wanted to punish Germany for starting the war. At home in America, the battle over the treaty was quite different. It was a bitter dispute with no resolution, but many unintended consequences. The failure of the U.S. government to ratify the Treaty of Versailles and join the League of Nations resulted in American isolationism and a lack of oversight in Germany, both of which were contributing factors to the beginning of the Second World War.…
The United States had entered World War I against many wishes of the American public, which made the ratification for the peace agreement an even more difficult task. Woodrow Wilson justified American involvement by claiming that an Ally victory would ensure a new world order. The war would be used as an instrument to "make the world safe for democracy". However, many Americans, government officials, and even the Allies did not agree with the progressive ideals that would be enforced to attain the peace that Wilson had desired and promised. This was made evident when Wilson's negotiations for the peace treaty were criticized and rejected by the leaders of the other Allied nations and isolationists. Even when Wilson acknowledged objections against his proposals, he refused to accept any compromises or different versions of the treaty. Therefore, both the inflexibility of Wilson and strength of the opposition forces led to the defeat of the Treaty of Versailles.…
Coming out of World War I, the United States emerged as the most powerful nation in the world. The president at this time was the Progressive Woodrow Wilson. Wilson came up with a plan for long lasting peace at the conclusion of the war called the Fourteen Points. One of these points was the League of Nations which was Wilson's favorite thing. This part of Wilson's plan stated, "A general association of nations must be formed under specific covenants for the purpose of affording mutual guarantees of political independence and territorial integrity to great and small states alike." However, the United States never signed the Treaty of Versailles and never became a member of the League of Nations. Opposition against Wilson's plans…
When the war ended in a deadlock, America took part in the Allies. With the victory of the Allies, the international reputation and influence of America had greatly improved. Not only that, the United States replaced the leadership position of British in the west after the war. What’s more, in January.1918, when World War I came into an end, Wilson, American president, put forward American foreign police the Fourteen Points. He claimed that it was the peace guideline of the world. It is fully disclosed that American’s desire to be the world’s overlord, so the US want to use the war to achieve its…
I believe that if all the nations including the United States and Germany agreed upon the terms, world war two could have definitely been avoided. The countries would work together in harmony. They would build up their economies together and help fix each other from all the damage that occurred. The whole of Europe and the United States would have been united like no other. Also, all the nations would be transparent due to the point that bans all secret treaties.…
Since the United States was practicing a policy of Isolationism, they supported the Allied War effort by helping fund their effort through war bonds (Library of Congress, 2022). During the war, President Woodrow Wilson wrote his Fourteen Points, which is what the Allies would use when negotiating the Treaty of Versailles. After the war, the Allies wanted to ensure that another World War ever happened again so Woodrow Wilson created the League of Nations so that nations could resolve their issues diplomatically instead. A goal of the Allied powers was to help rebuild the Central Powers, which the U.S. contributed as well (Library of Congress,…
Before WWII happened many nations were going through hard times and did not want to engage in another war. WWI had just ended about 20 years ago and still were recovering their economy. To avoid wars nations came up with policies and treaties with other nations in order to keep the piece. The US, UK and france all wanted to prevent the war. UK,US and france came up with things like the neutrality laws, policy of appeasement, and the five power treaty The United States were a huge arsenal for WWI which was one of the reason the US joined WWI.…
“The War was decided in the first twenty days of fighting, and all that happened afterwards consisted in battles which, however formidable and devastating, were but desperate and vain appeals against the decision of Fate.” The following statement was made by Winston Churchill (Prime Minister of Britain from 1940-45), and truly shines some light on multiple aspects of the World War I. During the First World War, which occurred from 1914-1918 and involved the majority of the European countries, the United had initially agreed to remain out of conflict, assuming that isolationism was the ultimate strategy. Yet as the war progressed, the United States of America (USA) was pushed to take the Allied side in order to ensure that Germany does not gain too much power and that balance remains both politically and economically in Europe. Rather than to blame the German Expansionist regime (which was not proven to exist prior to 1914) just as Fritz Fischer did, one can analyze and determine which events or policies led to US entry of the war, and to what degree they can be attributed. This includes the Zimmerman note, Economic affairs, and neutrality, which have all involved German threats to United States security and general safety.…
He was enthusiastically received by the population in the Allied capitals, but the enthusiasm faded when the negotiations began in Versailles. Despite Wilson's protest, the Allies submitted to the German reparation payments and shared his devastating colonies among themselves. Wilson succeeded indeed to create the League of Nations (League of Nations), but many Americans feared that such a world organization would involve the United States in the future in another war. A group of Republican senators tied conditions at the Treaty of Versailles. They would only accept the League of Nations as long as the US Congress, would not retain the League of Nations to take control of the American forces.…
In 1974, the world was first introduced to Stephen King through the publication of Carrie. Since then, King has released over fifty-four novels, short stories and essays (King, Written Works). His themes are vast and touch such subjects as aliens, telekinesis, life in prison, trucks coming to life, and the end of the world. In 1999, a car accident almost ended Stephen King’s life. After his recovery, he published five novels that were received with poor sales and unkind reviews. When Under the Dome was released in 2009, it showed that Stephen King was returning to a formula that worked so well for him in a previous book called The Stand.…
