How soon after war broke out was this cartoon published?
Answer: This cartoon by John T. McCutcheon was published on The Chicago Daily Tribune on August 5th, 1914, only one day after the first battle of World War I.
Explanation:
After a period of growing international tension due to the assassination of Franz Ferdinand, Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia on July 28. Quickly Russia, Belgium, Great Britain, France, and Serbia lined up against Austria-Hungary and Germany, setting the beginning of World War I.
The very first battle of the Great War was on August 4, 1914, when German troops crossed the border into Belgium.
This cartoon shows the broken peace of Europe and the poor performance shown by political leaders.
