The Great War, 1914-1918 (Blog #26)

The quest among European nations for greater power played a role in causing World War I. By the end of the 20th century, relations among these countries had grown increasingly tense. In Europe, military buildup, nationalistic feelings, and rival alliances set the stage for a continental war. Ethnic conflict in the Balkan region, which helped start the war, continued to erupt in that area in the 1990's.

Your Assignment:

1.) Define imperialism and militarism.
2.) How do these two terms work together to promote war.
3.) What is one argument against militarism.
