political effects
At first before WW1 U.S.A. had a good economy, was doing good, and had a polocy of isolationism( isonationism means that a country will let other countries handle their problems, we will not get in your buisness/war). The polocy of nationism( nationlism is the love/ desire of one's country to be free from others control)was with Serbia. Serbia belived that Austria-Hungary had some of it's land and Serbia wanted it back. Austria-Hungary said that it didn't have Serbia's land, so a member from the Black Hand(a Serbian organization) shot the upcoming king for Austria-Hungary. The name of the king was Archduke Franz Ferdinand. Then Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia , and all the Europeon countries had alliances. Eventually all the Eurpeon countries got involved, and since wewere allies with Great Britan. We eventually got involved, but we had a polocy of islationism. What we only did sent money and suppplies over to the Allied Powers. When the U.S. entered the war they not only had to send to there soilders they also had to send to the Allied Powers, so the U.S. was loosing money. People did as much as they could to rase money. Women took the jobs of men in the factories to make guns, ammunition, and other supplies for the war. During the war new weapons were introduced. After the war people started making more money and getting the economy up. One of the ways they got more money was selling stuff to the Europeon countries. The stuff that we sent to them was what they needed. With many of the men out in battle women had to make weapons. More weapons were made, because there were more women working. People countributed a lot because they had to send to the U.S. and the Allied Powers. This affected the goverment by always having back up so this would never happen again.
