11 questions

Welcome to your Chapter 30 reading! As you read, you should consider the following essential question:

As always, "Focus Questions" should guide your reading and notes, but you do not necessarily have to explicitly answer them.

Press play for a brief explanation from Ms. Truong:

Press Play for commentary from Ms. Truong

World War I tldr; America was initially reluctant to enter the First World War due to isolationism stemming all the way back to Washignton's Farewell Address and the "America first" mentality of nativism.

Allied Powers: Won
Great Britain, the United States, France
Axis Powers: Lost
Germany, Austria-Hungary, and the Ottoman Empire (which no longer exists)
