The Similarities And Differences Between World War I And World War II

I believe that World War II was a continuation of World War I because of some not resolved issues. Hitler violated the Treaty of Versailles by expanding the military and invading Poland. One of the events that led to the beginning of World War 1 was: Militarism, Alliances, Imperialism, and Nationalism; which stands for MAIN. Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia but they then joined up with Russia. After, Germany declared war on Russia which caused the war to expand. World War I ended in 1918 when Germany surrendered. It also had a great impact on European countries after it ended.

World War II was the most destructive and deadliest war in history. There were about eleven million people killed just in the holocaust. World War II started on September 1st, 1939 after Germany invaded Poland. Three days later Britain and France declared war on Germany, at the time the U.S. was neutral. Through 1941, germany controlled most of Europe and was a very big threat.

World War II-- also known as The Holocaust / The Genocide -- was the world 's second 'Great War '. World War II was much more larger in scale and more longer in duration. World War I had only lasted for four years, while World War II had lasted for six years. I find it quite interesting that contrary to popular belief; the United States did not enter World War II until 2 years after the genesis of the conflict. It was only in 1941, when the Japanese had bombed Pearl Harbor that the United States had entered the war. World War II started in 1939 due to Germany performing an unprovoked attack on Poland. Surprisingly, only a few months later after Germany invaded Poland; the whole European continent was at war. In 1939, the United States was not ready to go to war. In the early 20th century, the United States Army only ranked 39th in the world. Many Americans believed that the United States could not handle another global conflict right after the Great Depression. Although the United States was not 'officially ' part of the war at that time, that did not stop the United States from becoming 'unofficially ' involved.

Generally speaking, countries fight wars to gain independence for their own or power over others. No matter the reason, wars leave a great impact on civilians, militias, and countries as a whole. Sometimes it's a positive impact as the country successfully gets what they are fighting for. Sometimes it's a terribly negative impact and the country encounters great losses. World War I and World War II were those wars that had a terribly negative impact on not only a specific country, but the entire world. There are a lot of similarities and differences between World War I and World War II. Both wars were started off the need of power and

World War II is probably the most famous war to date, but how were the weapons and tactics first used. Most of the weapons used in WWII were first designed in WWI, in fact that's when the flamethrower was invented. WWI and WWII have their fair share of similarities, such as the use of submarines. These similarities are also there differences, such as both wars using subs but WWII more heavily using them and making more advancements. The time period in between WWI and WWII was one of the most technologically advancing times in world history.

The First World War was battled from: 1914 to 1918 and the Second World War was battled from: 1939 to 1945. They were the biggest military clashes in the history. Both wars included military organizations together between diverse gatherings of nations.

World war I and World War II was two world wars that completely devastated Europe. Many deaths and sacrifices were made throughout and these two events are no doubt one of the most important events in world history. Many books were written about these two wars, detailing the great horrors and brutal truths of life out on the battlefield.

Within the span of 30 years, the majority of the world went to war twice, resulting in the deaths and destruction of many soldiers and civilians. The US was one of these countries that went to war both times. As a result of the wars being so close together, there are many similarities in the way they played out. Despite these similarities, there were some differences as well between the two wars. These wars shaped American policy, as well as the policies of every foreign country, for years and years to come.

World War I was a war fought between the Allies and the Central Powers in 1914 through 1918. This was the first international war in the twentieth century and possibly the most deadliest war since. Every country was bringing out their finest advanced weaponry and their most strategic methods to succeed. All of the new advanced weaponry and strategies had a huge impact on the way the war was fought. The soldiers entered the war with horses and simple rifles, but left the war with tanks, flamethrowers, machine guns, and even technology like poisonous gas. With all this new technology impacting World War I, the Allies and Central Powers had to create new strategies/technology to fight and defend with, the inhumane methods of killing people

World War I killed thousands of people on all sides of the war. Some say it was just the beginning of World War II. The outcomes for some of the countries was good and bad. No matter what, World War I was just a prelude for what was to come with World War II.

World War 1 And World War 2 were the largest militaristic wars mankind has ever experienced. Even though they have many similarities the similarities are outweighed by their differences.

Nearly 2/3 of military deaths in WWI were in battle. In previous conflicts, most deaths were due to disease. World War 1 was a military conflict lasting from 1914 to 1918 which involved most of Europe. World War 1 involved two opposing alliances. Both of them had different views and opinions on who was more powerful. Europe broke apart into alliances to prove who was the better group. Both groups will fight against each other in different ways. All these countries have hope that they will win the war. World War one was sparked by two powerful European alliances called Triple Entente and Triple Alliance who used their weapons to try and gain more power to keep their culture as well as trying to spread their culture.

Throughout history there has been an abundance of bloodshed, hatred, and battles that have taken the lives of countless people. War is in our blood; it is part of being human. War is what defines different generations and proves one group’s superiority over their fellow humans. War is inevitable with all the different opinions and ethnocentrism on our globe; it is mostly a necessary evil in modern day wars. World War I and World War II had many differences and similarities comparable to the causes of wars, warfare, and the imperialism that took place.

World War I began in 1914 and lasted until 1918. Originally a war between Russia and Germany it eventually involved several countries and territories. It was a battle of militarism, nationalism and imperialism.

World War I, fought from 1914 to 1918, and World War II, fought from 1939 to 1945, were the two largest military conflicts in human history. World War I was a result of the conflict between the Central Powers, which included Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Turkey and the Allied Powers, which included France, Britain, Russia, Italy, Japan, and the United States. Contrastingly, World War II was the conflict between the Axis Powers, which included Germany, Italy, and Japan and the Allied Powers, which included France, Britain, the United States, and the Soviet Union. There were many reasons why both wars began.
