Please get a WWI Part 1 Cornell Note GuidePg 102ANations were already planning for war Please do not talk at this time Feb 15 HW: finish your Propaganda if not done in class Chapter 13.1 Cornell Notes – Due Tues • Austria-Hungary had plans in place to invade and take Serbia. • Germany was ready to invade France and take back the disputed Alsace-Lorraine region. Both nations only needed an excuse to put their plans into action!
The Schlieffen Plan This German plan was designed to capture the Alsace-Lorraine region early and to defeat France before Russia could mobilize. Belgium got caught in the middle. The Germans aren’t quite fast enough to end the war this early and Russia Mobilizes faster than they expected.
German Atrocities in Belgium Reports of German attacks on innocent civilians fuels others to fight!
Mobilization Promises: • The Girls will Love you! • Home by Christmas! • No major war in 50 years! • This is your one shot at glory! • Nationalism!

What is Propaganda? Propaganda: an advertisement that attempts to spread ideas or promote a cause. It is manipulative and emotional. Emotional people don't use reason. They just react. That is the idea behind most Propaganda.
A Young Australian Recruit This glamour shot was designed to show how brave and noble the soldier is and to make his family, friends and sweetheart feel proud of him.
Recruits of the Central Powers A German Soldier Says Farewell to His Mother Austro-Hungarians Images like these filled newspaper, movies, song covers, book covers, magazines and other media.
New French Recruits What propaganda have these guys heard to make them So Happy?
A German Boy Pretends to Be a Soldier While propaganda was aimed at adults, children felt its effects too. When this boy plays “War” what will his game be like?
Types of Propaganda Demonization- Make the Enemy a Monster. Its ok to kill Monsters. In fact, its necessary. Pictures of Austrian soldiers with their features exaggerated grotesquely into the image of a devil or a demon is one example. Another might be a story about French soldiers raping German girls. These are things a normal “good” human would never be or do and there is no question they, the perpetrators, must be stopped!
Austrian Menace Russian Spider Scottish “Baby Eating” Cobra
Types of Propaganda Lying- Tell people what they want to hear. Or tell them their worst fear. Do whatever it takes. You might say that a battle in Africa was won, even if it was lost, in order to keep up moral and make sure the public continues to support the war. You might claim that your target group is doing things which are threatening, like burning people’s homes, or shooting children even if it is not true.
Types of Propaganda Emotional Appeal- Emotional people don't think. They just react. If it is a very good piece of propaganda, it can even guide how you react. Guilt is a big motivator for this type of propaganda. The idea that someone may suffer or be killed because of one’s actions is very compelling. At this time, there was a strong call for young men to do their duty, to show their loyalty to their friends and country. The man that did not do this was a bad man.
