THE BACKGROUND
• America entered World War I with grand intentions to make the world safe for democracy and to promote self-determination of oppressed nations. Millions participated in the war effort. It was the first technological and total war in which survival would be determined by its outcome. The industrial revolution had unleashed a potential holocaust for which few were prepared. Previously, wars ended with a treaty, a hand shake and back to business. Not so with this new technology, alliance systems and manic imperialism.
