DURING WORLD WAR I:

War tends to disrupt traditional norms surrounding gender and sexuality, and the First World War between 1914-1918 was no exception. Keep in mind, the U.S. did not become involved in the war until 1917. 

During World War I, many women entered the workforce for the first time. With significant numbers of men away in Europe, women were needed in various capacities. It is believed over 20,000 women worked as nurses during the war. Others worked in clerical positions for the U.S. Government. Telephone and radio operators were also common positions for women. 

On the home front, women assumed greater responsibility in public life as significant portions of the male population were 'over there' (as Europe was referred to during that time). Women too young or unable to work helped the war effort in various ways, such as planting 'victory' gardens.

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

the League of Nations

Explanation:

After the World War I ended, the League of Nations was formed. Lot of nations became members of it, but not the United States. The United States felt that joining the League of Nations was not in its best interest, especially considering the fact that they wanted to further expand in the Pacific, nor were they willing to give up on the territories they recently gained and controlled. This changed after the World War II though, when the League of Nations became the United Nations, and the United States had different interests and were one of the first nations to join in.
