NEW IMPERIALISM

Imperialism—the economic and political domination of a strong nation over other weaker nations.
Reasons for European expansion: More profit for investors in Asia & Africa
IMPORTANT: to protect investments Europeans began exercising control there
Colonies & protectorates (local rulers stay in control and are protected from invasion, but Europeans controlled the gov’t.)

207b. Long-Term Causes of World War I(1914 – 1918)
1. NATIONALISM – belief in national unity and racial supremacy
France 1800s – Napoleon conquered much of Europe
Germany (1861) Small city-states of central Europe became the nation of Germany - believed it had the right to establish an empire
Italian government believed in improving the economy through conquest
Netherlands formed its own nation called Belgium
In time, each nation believed its culture was superior and so deserved the right to conquer other peoples. Which led to ….
Social DarwinismDarwin’s idea of “survival of the fittest” in the animal kingdom
led many to believe the same held true for humans. The idea that only the strongest people are meant to rule.

On May 7, 1915, a German submarine torpedoed the Lusitania off the coast of Ireland.

BUILDING UP THE MILITARY
When the US entered the war, it did not have enough soldiers even though they have many volunteerConscription-forced military service...progressives disagreed with it, law-makers thought it was necessaryA Selective Service lottery was used2.8 million men were drafted
![Page 75: U NIT 2 N OTES : I MPERIALISM (P ART 1) Students will learn how the US became a major world power, and diplomacy with neighboring countries and abroad.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062802/56649ea75503460f94ba9baf/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
211. WHAT WAS THE PURPOSE OF THE SELECTIVE SERVICE ACT? When the United States entered WWI, the
forces had only 120,000 enlisted men and 80,000 National Guardsmen.
In May 1917 Congress passed a Selective Service Act, authorizing a draft of young men for military service.
By November 1918 more than 24 million men had registered for the draft.
From those, a lottery picked 3 million draftees to serve in the war.
Volunteers and National Guardsmen made up the remainder of what was called the American Expeditionary Force (AEF)

212. WHAT WERE LIBERTY BONDS? During WWI, the government launched a
vigorous campaign to raise money from the American people.
It started offering Liberty Bonds, special war bonds sold to support the Allied cause.
Like all bonds, they could later be redeemed for the original value of the bonds plus interest.
By selling war bonds, the government raised more than $20 billion.
Responding to the slogan “Every Scout to Save a Soldier”, Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts set booths on street corners and sold bonds.

WHAT WERE SOME OF THE BATTLE TACTICS AND NEW WEAPONS DURING WORLD WAR I? (6 EXAMPLES)
Soldiers - victims of a poison gas attack
1. Trench Warfare – Each side’s army lived in the trenches, which were usually infested with rats.
2. Machine Guns – Were used to shoot massive amounts of ammunition at he enemy in a short amount of time, increasing the chance of hitting the enemy.
3. Poison Gas – First used by Germans, poison mustard gas killed or wounded soldiers immediately. The gas would instantly engulf soldiers and break down the internal organs when they inhaled the fumes. Often, the gas destroyed the soldiers’ lungs, causing them to fill with fluid. Effects include: blistering skin, vomiting, sore eyes, internal and external bleeding. Death can take up to 5 weeks.

SHAVE, WASH, AND GET THE MUSTARD GAS OFF
Great care had to be exercised in shaving.
Because of the germ infested ground, the slightest cut
usually resulted in serious infection.
Trench WarfareAnd
Mustard Gas
MUSTARD GAS SEEMED TO BE EVERYWHERE
This gas was difficult to detect because it was practically
odorless and invisible, and the concentration of only 1 to
100,000 was sufficient to put a man out of commission. Its
effect was cumulative, lasting over a long period. Horses, as well as men, had to be washed whenever water and time were
both available.

WHAT WERE SOME RESULTS OF WORLD WAR I?
2. League of Nations is formed
To ensure that there would never be another world war, President Woodrow Wilson promoted the League of Nations.
A world organization established in 1920 to promote international cooperation and peace. It was first proposed in 1918 by President Woodrow Wilson, although the United States never joined the League.
The people of the US and Congress believed strongly in a policy of isolationism – meaning that the people felt it best to
stay out of international conflicts and events.
Without the power of the United States the League was powerless, it was officially dissolved in 1946.

WHAT LED TO IMMIGRATION RESTRICTION IN THE US IN THE
1920S?
Emergency Quota Act – During the 1920’s, the Nativists (people who were afraid of
foreigners entering the US), coupled with the growth of the political power of the Ku Klux Klan, led Congress to almost completely restrict immigration to the US from Eastern Europe, Southern Europe, and Asia.
Emergency Quota Act - Set up a quota system favoring Northern Europe for immigration. The US government gave special status to immigrants from northern Europe and Britain because of their generally lighter complexions and Protestant beliefs.

217. WHAT DOES “RED SCARE” MEAN?
Red Scare – intense fear of communism. Communists believed in government ownership
of all wealth. Americans were terrified that a communist revolution could break out in the
United States. They feared that their money and wealth would be taken away as well as the violence that would come with such a revolution.
Communists were blamed for strikes, terrorist bombings like Haymarket Square, and race riots.
Even though communists were never really much of a threat, American's fear mushroomed into a kind of national panic known as the Red Scare.
Americans saw Europe as a breeding ground for socialism and communism and as a result blamed immigrants, who were most always from Europe.
The Red Scare reached a peak in 1920 when the federal government jailed thousands of aliens suspected of being communists.
President Woodrow Wilson's Attorney General, A Mitchell Palmer launched a series of Justice Department raids against the headquarters of radical groups in 33 cities. In these Palmer Raids over 3,000 people were denied due process rights like reasonable bail, the right to a defense lawyer and jury trials. Over 550 aliens among them were eventually deported.

WHO WERE “SACCO AND VANZETTI” (1920)?
Xenophobia is the irrational fear of foreigners and the 1920's saw plenty of irrational fear and irrational actions.
The story began on April 15, 1920, when gunmen robbed and killed the guard and paymaster of a shoe factory in Massachusetts.
A few weeks later, police arrested two Italian immigrants in connection with the crime.
Nicola Sacco, a shoemaker, and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, a fish peddler, were both carrying guns at the time of the arrest.
One of the guns was the same model used in the crime. Both were atheists (those who profess no belief in God) and anarchists
(people who do not believe in any form of government).
![Page 108: U NIT 2 N OTES : I MPERIALISM (P ART 1) Students will learn how the US became a major world power, and diplomacy with neighboring countries and abroad.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062802/56649ea75503460f94ba9baf/html5/thumbnails/108.jpg)
Neither man spoke English very well and a translator was not provided for them.
Sacco and Vanzetti were found guilty of murder and sentenced to death. Many felt they did not get a fair trial.
Later, a gangster, already sentenced to die, confessed to the killings, but the court refused to grant a another trial based on this new evidence.
All over the world, people protested. Both men continued to swear they were innocent right up to the end. Sacco and Vanzetti were executed on April 23, 1927
WHO WERE “SACCO AND VANZETTI” (1920)?
![Page 109: U NIT 2 N OTES : I MPERIALISM (P ART 1) Students will learn how the US became a major world power, and diplomacy with neighboring countries and abroad.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062802/56649ea75503460f94ba9baf/html5/thumbnails/109.jpg)
The two were anarchists, and while maintaining their innocence, insisted that they were being prosecuted for their political beliefs. After a trial marred by questionable evidence and judicial procedures, Sacco and Vanzetti were convicted and sentenced to death. For a broad spectrum of people around the world, Sacco and Vanzetti’s case came to symbolize government injustice. Crowds gathered around the world to protest on August 23, 1927, when the two were executed, and thousands of mourners followed behind their funeral carriages, as shown in this photograph.
