How did nationalism imperialism and militarism lead to ww1

Nationalism heightened in the 19th century and heading into the 20th century. The nationalistic fervor by people in Europe had them each viewing their own nations as better than the others, in competition with the others. This would lead to an increase in tension between the nations.

Imperialism expanded on that nationalistic rivalry by carrying their competition to other parts of the globe. The nations of Europe sought to grab control for themselves over parts of Asia and Africa. When war erupted, that also meant it would become a world war because the European nations would include people from their imperial territories in the war.

Militarism grew ever more potent as the 20th century opened. The competition between nations included a massive arms race in terms of expanding armies and navies. The nations also sided up in competing military alliances and made military battle plans as to how they might fight a war if war came. When a cause for war broke out, all those preparations propelled the nations of Europe into war recklessly.

Irina-Kira [14]

Supreme Court justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. meant that citizens must pay taxes as a way to help society stay organized.

I agree with him because taxes pay for several different services that are essential to American society. This includes, but is not limited to, the following:

1) Public schools- School funding, teacher salaries, and the support staff of a school are all paid by tax dollars.

2) Emergency services- Police departments and fire departments are also funded by tax money.

3) Government services/employees- The people who make our laws and who provide help through government programs are all paid for their efforts thanks to taxes.

Critics called President Reagan’s Economic plan trickle down economics the term describes his plan to cut taxes allowing money t

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

The wealthy to the poor.

Explanation:

The phrase trickle-down theory was coined after a speech by David Stockman, Ronald Reagan's chief economic advisor. He saw the supply-oriented economic policy as part of a long tradition of economics, according to which laissez-faire not only helps those who are well placed in the market, but everyone, even the poorest.

The trickle-down economy was a highly political issue for the Reagan government. Use of the term has been waning since the late 1980s, although the program to lower marginal tax rates, sell state shares, and deregulate was and remains a central program item for the Republican Party.

Well-known economists dispute the validity of the theory, questioning the premise that lowering the top tax rate would stimulate economic growth and job creation.
