As countries grabbed land, they had agreements with other countries to ensure their land and interests were safe.
These agreements were called Alliances.
This means that one country has an agreement with another country that if someone causes one country harm, the other countries will have their back.
SSSSOOOOOO how does that lead us to WWI??These different Alliances became Rivals against the
other Alliance!
Alliances Bring Peace or Not?

As the Germans were stopped outside of Paris the French dug trenches to insure that Germans could not advance any farther.
Likewise the Germans dug trenches to prevent the French, English and their allies from advancing and pushing the Germans back into Germany,
Result: A stalemate that resulted in two very long lines of trenches dug across the country of France

Americans personally were divided on their loyalties.
German Americans and Irish Americans, (out of their hatred for England’s long control of Ireland) supported the Central Powers.
Others supported the Allies due to common language, along with Americans of Slavic or Italian descent.
America was “Officially” Neutral

American business mostly traded with the Allies.
American banks lent large amounts of money to the Allies
British prevented the US from trading with Germany, due to the British blockade.
Germany didn’t have many surface ships to break through the English blockage, but they had many U-Boats (submarines). Germany announced that they would use their U-boats to blockade England.
For American Business, money talks
