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.

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