We refer to World War one as Total War, because this term describes a war in which countries or nations mobilize and force to the limit all their available resources, be they human, military, industrial, agricultural, natural, technological , scientists, or of any other kind, to totally destroy the ability of another country or nation to engage in a war, and this was what happened in the First World War.

Name and explain the three long term effects of ww1
jeka57 [31]

1. The Treaty of Versailles

The Treaty of Versailles forced Germany to pay for all of the damage they caused, which was more than they could afford at the time, thus causing them to print more money and cause hyperinflation, leading to the rise of Hitler in the country's economic depression.

2. Rise of Communism

The Russian revolution happened a little while later, when Lenin rose to power and essentially forced communism onto Russia, which made then become the Soviet Union and leave the Allied Powers when WWII came around.

3. De-glorification of Warfare

Trench warfare was introduced during this time, as well as poison gas, which sharply turned war from a noble, honorable event into a disgusting and horrendous zone of terror. Bodies littered carelessly throughout trenches desensitized people to death and war, and war became less of an honor and more of a terror.

Which of the following actions led many American colonists to support declaring independence from the British Empire?
tatyana61 [14]

After the victory of Britain in the French Indian War, there have been circumstances that will soon show the negative effects of this victory. Namely, the cost of the war was high, which is one of the reasons for the introduction of taxes by Britain. In addition, individual disagreements over the colony's colonial boundaries are all the reasons why American colonists supported the Declaration of Independence from the United Kingdom.

The answer is: B.
