Write a paragraph describing how the u.s. government managed the economy during world war i and the economic effects of that man
Gnom [1K]
The US government played a huge role in the American economy during World War I. One way in which they controlled the economy was through the War Industry Board. This government agency monitored the production of war related goods and raw materials as well as being able to tell companies how much of a product they needed to make. This agency even had the power to fix prices if they saw it as necessary.

 Another group that was critical during this time was the war labor board. This agency worked to settle labor disputes between business owners and workers. This agency was critical, as any strikes by labors in important industries could greatly affect the resources available for the US military.

Lastly, the US food administration was another key government group that helped during the war effort. This agency focused on increasing agricultural output (aka food) and reducing the amount of waste. This group used advertisements to encourage American citizens to cut back on food such as bread so that there were more resources available for the war effort.

What single event set in motion the start of World War I?
Bezzdna [24]
The murder in the town of Serajevo (at that time in Serbia and today in Bosnia) of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria (heir to the throne of the Austro-Hungarian Empire) by a serbian natioalist (Gavrilo Princip). This act set in motion a chain reaction of declarations of war between European nations.
Austria declared war on Serbia but Russia supported Serbia and came to help against Austria. Germany had to help Austria against Russia but France, worried about the German intervention, declared war so that Germany invaded Belgium and Holland (neutral) to bypass the Maginot Line (a chain of fortified stronghold on the border of France with Germany) to try to reach Paris. At this point England intervened to help France and declared war as well.
