Imperialism Reflection • What is Imperialism? • Do you think imperialism still happens today? • How do you think imperialism is different today than it was in places like India when the British were in charge of the country?
How is imperialism bad? • Destroys local culture • Treats local people poorly • Starts fighting within the local people
How is imperialism good? • Brings money in sometimes. • In India: • Better for international business (learned English) • Safer conditions for wives (no more wife burning), built railroads, more convenient, set up government…… • Easier to get supplies from Great Britain

How is imperialism bad? • Think about the Scramble for Africa. • Do you think that some countries may have been jealous if they didn’t have as many colonies as France in Africa? • How might this lead to bad feelings between different European countries?
Imperialism • Is one of the MAIN reasons why war broke out between European countries in the First World War! • Our next unit! Hooraaaaaaaaaaaaay!
Causes of WWI • A. Imperialism • 1. Strong countries conquered smaller weaker countries (colonies) • 2. European countries – Asia and Africa • 3. European countries competed for colonies. This made them not like each other
World War I • Nationalism was one of the main causes of World War 1 in 1914.
B. Nationalism • 1. Definition: To love your country or culture • 2. Example: Europeans thought they were the best and wanted to fight a war to prove it.
Nationalism • What is Nationalism? • How does nationalism make people more willing to fight for their country?
C. Arms Race • 1. Each country wanted to have the biggest military. • 2. More weapons make countries want to fight a war.
D. Alliances • Alliances: agreement between countries saying that the people of one nation would help the people of an allied nation if they needed it. • This meant that more countries were willing to take risks because they knew they had support from their allies.
E. Assassination of Archduke Ferdinand • THE FINAL thing that led to war! • 1. Assassination is the killing of an important person • 2. The archduke was the next king • 3. Austria Hungary controlled land in the Balkans, including a country called Serbia. Serbia wanted their land back!
Austria acts like a jerk to Serbia! • Austrians decide to have a parade in Serbia celebrating that Austria taking over. • The parade is on the day of a Serbian holiday. • This is VERY disrespectful to Serbia.
So…… Serbians get angry and: • A Serbian man shoots the Archduke Franz Ferdinand while he is riding in a parade car.
Austria Hungary is really mad • They declare war on Serbia
Summary Main causes of WWI • Arms Race: People try to show how strong they are with weapons (machine gun, ships, submarine) • Imperialism: People take over other countries. They fight for land and colonizing. Ex: Indians got upset: war • Nationalism: To love you your country. You DON’T love other countries. If my country is right, everyone else is wrong. My country is the best • Alliances: Friendship between countries. War gets bigger because countries that are friends fight for each other EVEN if they weren’t part of the first fight. • Assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand: When a Serbian man killed the prince of Austria Hungary.

II. Beginning of WWI • A. The “small” war • 1. The war should only be between Austria Hungary and Serbia.
B. Alliance System • 1. Because of the alliance system it becomes a much bigger war • 2. Triple Alliance = Germany, Austria Hungary and Italy • 3. Triple Entente = Great Britain, France, Russia
These alliances • Were made BEFORE the war started! • AFTER the war had become, alliances led countries to take sides. There were the Central Powers and the Allied Powers
The 2 sides of the war: • Central Powers: Germany and Austria-Hungary (They were called this because they are located in the center of Europe) • Allied Powers: Great Britain, Russia, France, Serbia
