Die Deutschen von den NS-Mördern in immerwährender Schuld gefangen?Ein Narrativ auf fruchtbarem BodenEin Kommentar von Wolfgang Effenberger.Als Reaktion auf die Diskussion über die Lage in Nahost infolge des Hamas-Überfalls auf Israel vom 7. Oktober 2023 bekundete der deutsche Vizekanzler Dr. Habeck seine persönliche Betroffenheit und legte ein Bekenntnis ab:„Dieses besondere Verhältnis zu Israel rührt aus unserer historischen Verantwortung: Es war die Generation meiner Großeltern, die jüdisches Leben in Deutschland und Europa vernichten wollte.“(1)Wenn die von Habeck angesprochene gesamte Generation seiner Großeltern (geboren zwischen 1885 und 1915) jüdisches Leben in Deutschland und Europa vernichten wollte, dann hat das deutsche Volk keine Daseins-Berechtigung und muss von der Wurzel her ausgerottet werden. Diese Sichtweise ist nicht nur höchst rassistisch, sondern auch völlig falsch!Die von Habeck pauschal unter Mordverdacht gestellte Generation von angeblichen Antisemiten hatte die volle Last des Ersten Weltkriegs zu tragen und erlebt, wie sich Anfang August 1914 die jüdischen Mitbürger - sie stellten gerade 1 Prozent der gesamten Bevölkerung - überproportional freiwillig zum Militärdienst meldeten, um als Patrioten das von Ost und West bedrohte deutsche Kaiserreich zu verteidigen. Dieser Krieg war von Großbritannien über die Bildung der "Triple Entente" (informeller Zusammenschluss zwischen Frankreich, Russland und Großbritannien ab 1907) und dem 1904 ins Leben gerufenen "Committee of Imperial Defense" (1904 bis 1939) systematisch vorbereitet worden.(2)In Sarajevo wurden am 28. Juni 1914 der Thronfolger Österreich-Ungarns, Erzherzog Franz Ferdinand, und seine Frau Sophie Chotek, Herzogin von Hohenberg, von Gavrilo Princip, einem Mitglied der serbisch-nationalistischen Bewegung Mlada Bosna (Junges Bosnien), ermordet. Das von der serbischen Geheimgesellschaft "Schwarze Hand" geplante Attentat in der bosnischen Hauptstadt löste die Julikrise aus, die schließlich Anfang August zum Ersten Weltkrieg führte. Nachdem die Briten 1917 in der Korfu-Deklaration den Serben die Nachfolge des Vielvölkerstaates Österreich-Ungarn als Vereinigung aller Südslawen (Jugoslawien) angeboten haben, darf nicht ausgeschlossen werden, dass hinter diesem Attentat ganz andere Kräfte steckten. Dascwurde bis heute nicht befriedigend aufgeklärt. Ebenso dürfte der Terroranschlag auf die North-Stream-Pipelines nie aufgeklärt werden.In den ersten Augusttagen des Jahres 1914 eilte die deutsche Jugend zu den Fahnen. Unter ihnen waren die deutschen Juden die ersten und eifrigsten Kriegsfreiwilligen. „Aus den Geschäftskontoren, aus den Hochschulen, von den Bänken der oberen Gymnasialklassen stürmten sie zu den Waffen. Einzelne jüdische Studenten- und sonstige Jugendvereine sahen drei Viertel ihrer Mitgliedschaft und mehr zu den Waffen stürzen und in den Blutströmen der ersten, der verheerendsten Schlachten floß das jüdische und das christliche Blut in gleich heißem Rot zusammen - eine erschütternde Verbrüderung“.(3)Das alles hatte diese Großeltern-Generation weitgehend persönlich erlebt!...... hier weiterlesen: https://apolut.net/die-deutschen-in-immerwaehrender-schuld-gefangen-von-wolfgang-effenberger+++Bildquelle: nitpicker / shutterstock+++ Hosted on Acast.

Vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg geht das Deutsche Reich verschiedene Bündnisse ein. Der "Erzfeind" Frankreich bleibt davon ausgeschlossen und schließt daraufhin 1904 ein Abkommen mit Großbritannien ab. Aus der "Entente Cordiale" wird die "Triple Entente", als Russland hinzukommt. Deutschland fühlt sich dadurch umzingelt und rüstet auf.**********Ihr hört in dieser "Eine Stunde History":00:13:03 - Historiker Jörn Leonhard00:23:40 - Historiker Eckhart Conze00:33:42 - Historiker Rainer F.

Dimitri and Khalid begin their vertiginous dive into the outbreak of World War One and the circumstances leading up the Ottoman Empire's entry in alliance with Germany and Austria-Hungary. Topics include: catalyzing incidents and geopolitical rivalries, cousin monarchs inaugurating a mechanized mass murder ritual that quickly spirals out of control, the quasi-false flag naval assault on Russia that dragged the Ottomans into the war, Germany's ill-conceived strategy of weaponizing a call to Jihad to rouse the world's Muslims against the Triple Entente, and more.

In the sweeping landscape of European history, few events proved to be as transformative or as destructive as the outbreak of World War I. This tragic epoch was set into motion when the intricately balanced scales of power tipped towards conflict on July 28, 1914, as Austria-Hungary declared war on the small but resolute nation of Serbia. This seemingly regional dispute, fueled by a web of political alliances, burgeoning nationalistic sentiments, and a steady undercurrent of unresolved tensions, sparked a global conflagration that forever changed the course of history. In the early 20th century, Europe was a mosaic of empires, each poised precariously on the brink of change. The continent's political landscape was marked by a tense yet delicate equilibrium maintained by two alliances - the Triple Entente, comprising France, Russia, and the United Kingdom, and the Central Powers, consisting primarily of Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy. This polarized setting was not one of peace, but a cold waiting room of war, where each player held their breath, waiting for the spark that would ignite the looming catastrophe. In this climate, the Balkan Peninsula earned its moniker as the "Powder Keg of Europe". A tinderbox of ethnicities, religions, and competing interests, it was a region plagued with volatility, its nations like Serbia and Bosnia-Herzegovina caught in a relentless tussle for freedom and dominance. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, in Sarajevo, Bosnia, was the proverbial spark that ignited this powder keg. A distant gunshot in Sarajevo resonated throughout the palaces, parliaments, and war offices of Europe, leading to the world's first truly global war. Our journey through this turbulent chapter of history begins here, at the genesis of a conflict that would soon embroil the entire world, and continue to shape the geopolitical landscape even a century later. We'll traverse through tangled alliances, national aspirations, human courage, and the tragic costs of war. As we delve into the events leading up to, during, and after Austria-Hungary's declaration of war against Serbia, we'll uncover not just a story of nations and leaders, but also the extraordinary tales of ordinary individuals caught in the storm.
The agreement marked the end of years of intermittent conflict between Britain and France and set the stage for the series of agreements known as the Triple Entente that bound Britain, France and Russia together at the start of the First World ...

On June 28, 1914, Gavrilo Princip shot the heir apparent to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Hear how this assassination sparked World War I, ended four empires, created many new countries, and led to World War II.
Welcome to Episode 2 of our podcast series on the First World War. In this episode, we will be exploring the causes of the war in greater detail. Specifically, we will be discussing the new international expansionist policy of Germany, the mutual defense alliances, imperialism, militarism, nationalism, and the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. To start with, let's take a closer look at the new international expansionist policy of Germany. In the late 19th century, Germany began to pursue an aggressive foreign policy, driven by a desire to establish itself as a great power in Europe. This policy was known as "Weltpolitik," which translates to "world policy" in English. The aim of Weltpolitik was to make Germany a dominant force in world affairs by acquiring overseas territories, building up a strong navy, and establishing a network of alliances with other countries. At the same time, other European powers, such as France and Britain, were also pursuing expansionist policies. This led to a complex web of alliances, which meant that a dispute between two countries could easily escalate into a wider conflict involving multiple nations. One of the key alliances that played a major role in the outbreak of the war was the Triple Alliance, which was formed in 1882 between Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy. This was later countered by the Triple Entente, which was formed in 1907 between Britain, France, and Russia. These alliances were intended to provide mutual defense in case of an attack by an external power, but they also served to create a sense of rivalry between the various nations involved. Imperialism was another factor that contributed to the outbreak of the war. European powers were competing for colonies and resources around the world, leading to tensions between nations. Germany, which was a relatively new player on the world stage, felt that it was being unfairly excluded from the scramble for colonies. This led to a further sense of resentment and competition between the various European powers. Militarism was also a major factor in the outbreak of the war. European powers had been investing heavily in their armed forces for decades, and by the early 20th century, they had created some of the most powerful and sophisticated armies in the world. This led to a belief that war was inevitable, and that a country needed to be prepared for conflict in order to ensure its survival. Nationalism was also a key factor in the outbreak of the war. Many European nations had a strong sense of national identity, and this led to a belief that their country was superior to others. This led to a sense of rivalry between nations, which could easily escalate into conflict. Finally, the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, was the trigger that led to the outbreak of the war. The assassination, which was carried out by a Serbian nationalist, led to a series of diplomatic crises, which eventually led to war. So, in conclusion, the causes of the First World War were complex and multifaceted. The new international expansionist policy of Germany, the mutual defense alliances, imperialism, militarism, nationalism, and the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand all played a role in the outbreak of the conflict. In the next episode, we will be discussing the phases of the war, including the major battles and strategies that were employed by the various nations involved. #UPSC #IASprep #civilserviceexam #IASexamination #IASaspirants #UPSCjourney #IASexam #civilservice #IASgoals #UPSC2022 #IAS2022 #civilservant #IAScoaching #UPSCmotivation #IASmotivation #UPSCpreparation #IASpreparation #UPSCguide #IASguide #UPSCtips #IAStips #UPSCbooks #IASbooks #UPSCexamstrategy #IASexamstrategy #UPSCmentorship #IASmentorship #UPSCcommunity #IAScommunity #UPSCpreparation #IASpreparation #UPSCguide #IASguide #UPSCtips --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/theiascompanion/message
Welcome to the first episode of our six-part podcast series on World War one, also known as the Great War. This episode will serve as an introduction to the war, its background, and will summarize the topics that will be covered in the series. The Great War began on July 28, 1914, and lasted until November 11, 1918. The war involved the major powers of the world at that time, and it is estimated that over 70 million military personnel, including 60 million Europeans, were mobilized in one of the largest wars in history. It resulted in the death of over 16 million people, both military and civilians, and had a profound impact on the social, political, and economic landscape of the world. The causes of the war are complex and multifaceted. The new international expansionist policy of Germany, headed by Kaiser Wilhelm two, was a significant contributing factor to the war. Germany sought to establish itself as a major world power, and its aggressive policies, such as the construction of a large navy and the annexation of Alsace-Lorraine from France, were met with suspicion and fear by other European powers. Mutual Defense Alliances played a critical role in escalating the tensions that led to the outbreak of war. The Triple Alliance, which consisted of Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy, was formed in 1882 to counter the Triple Entente, a coalition of Great Britain, France, and Russia, which had been formed in response to Germany's aggressive policies. Imperialism was also a significant factor in the lead-up to the war. European powers were engaged in a race for colonies and territories around the world, and this competition often led to conflicts between nations. Militarism, which is the belief in the superiority of military power, was prevalent in Europe at the time, and it contributed to an arms race between the major powers. This arms race resulted in the development of new and more deadly weapons, such as machine guns and chemical warfare. Nationalism was also a significant factor in the outbreak of war. European powers were engaged in a competition for influence and prestige, and this often led to conflicts over territory and resources. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary by a Serbian nationalist in June 1914 was the event that sparked the war. Over the course of the six-episode podcast series, we will explore the causes of the war in greater detail, discuss the phases of the war, and examine the consequences of the war on the social, political, and economic landscape of the world. We will also look at the Treaty of Versailles, which officially ended the war, and the role that India played in the conflict.

Pour les historiens, l'Europe s'est suicidée une première fois en 14-18 et s'est définitivement sabotée en 39-45... Si l'armistice du 11 novembre 1918 signe la victoire de la Triple-Entente, le conflit se solde par un bilan de plus de 38 millions de morts, blessés ou disparus. Qui donc a vraiment gagné la Première Guerre mondiale ? Pour en débattre, Frédéric Mounier reçoit l'historien Jean-Yves Le Naour, auteur de "1914-1918" (éd. Perrin, 2018), Xavier Delacroix, qui a co-dirigé l'ouvrage "L'autre siècle - Et si les Allemands avaient gagné la bataille de la Marne ?" (éd.

In a secret agreement signed on 26 April in London, Italy agreed to leave the Triple Alliance, join the forces of the Triple Entente, and declare war on Austria-Hungary and ...
El 23 de marzo de 1919 Benito Mussolini, un veterano de la primera guerra mundial que antes había ejercido como periodista de varias publicaciones de izquierdas, fundó los “Fasci Italiani di Combattimento” (Fasces Italianas de Combate), una organización nacionalista que aseguraba que los aliados de la Triple Entente, en cuyas filas había luchado Italia durante la guerra, les habían robado la victoria. El movimiento nacía en un momento especialmente convulso. Los dos años que siguieron al final de la guerra fueron muy difíciles en Italia. Se sucedieron las huelgas obreras y en algunas zonas del país se llegaron a ocupar tierras y fábricas. En ciudades como Milán se constituyeron incluso consejos obreros a imagen y semejanza de los soviets que habían provocado poco antes la revolución de octubre en Rusia. Los “Fasci Italiani di Combattimento” de Mussolini explotaron con éxito la situación excitando los ánimos de los nacionalistas italianos y de una burguesía que se sentía acogotada ante lo que parecía una reedición de la revolución bolchevique. En 1922 ese primer movimiento ya se había convertido en un partido, el Partido Nacional Fascista, y tenía apetitos de poder. Mussolini organizó una marcha sobre la capital con unos 30.000 hombres ataviados con camisas negras alegando que los fascistas eran los únicos capaces de garantizar la ley y el orden. Una vez en Roma los fascistas exigieron la dimisión del primer ministro y que ese puesto fuese ocupado por Mussolini. El rey Víctor Manuel III accedió y entregó el poder a Mussolini con la esperanza puesta en que el sistema domaría sus ímpetus y terminaría por fagocitar a los propios fascistas. Pero no sucedió nada de eso. Mussolini no tardó mucho en hacerse con el control del parlamento y luego fue desmontando poco a poco la frágil democracia italiana. Sobre el nació un nuevo régimen que rompía por completo con el sistema liberal parlamentario que había caracterizado a la Italia reunificada desde sus orígenes en 1861. Todos los partidos políticos fueron prohibidos y se eliminó el propio parlamento, que fue sustituido por el denominado Gran Consejo del Fascismo, una cámara monocolor designada por el propio Mussolini. Libertades típicamente burguesas como la de expresión, prensa y asociación también desaparecieron. A pesar de que Mussolini había convertido su país en una dictadura, la Italia fascista se puso de moda en la escena internacional durante parte de los años 20 y los años 30. Mussolini llegó a ser muy popular en Italia y también en el extranjero. Muchos le veían como un reformador y el régimen que había creado pronto encontró imitadores en otros países de Europa como España, Rumanía o Alemania. El fascismo se veía entonces como algo moderno que acababa con el liberalismo decimonónico y cerraba el paso a revoluciones comunistas como la rusa. En el exterior Mussolini desplegó una activa política exterior porque quería reconstruir de forma un tanto fantasiosa el imperio romano y transformar Italia en una potencia colonial. Lo primero nunca estuvo en su mano, lo segundo lo intentó con la invasión de Etiopía, una campaña que ocasionó una gran crisis internacional. Los nazis alemanes se inspiraron en la estética fascista. Hitler admiraba a Mussolini y le consideraba el precursor de su propio movimiento. Los dos regímenes se hermanaron y fueron juntos a la guerra a partir de 1940. Eso marcaría el final de la Italia fascista y del propio fascismo, que sucumbió en 1943 poco después de que los aliados desembarcasen en el sur de Italia. Hoy en La ContraHistoria vamos a profundizar en estos años de la historia de Italia para entender qué fue este movimiento que tanta influencia tuvo en toda Europa, cómo nació, cómo se desarrolló y por qué desapareció con la guerra.

Photo: The Entente Powers were a coalition of countries led by France, Britain, Russia, Italy, Japan and the United States against the Central Powers of Germany, Austria-Hungary, the Ottoman Empire, Bulgaria and their colonies during the First World War (1914–1918). Here: 1914 Russian poster depicting the Triple Entente.. .. .. 1/8 Nick Lloyd, The Western Front: A History of the Great War, 1914-1918 – March 30, 2021. Hardcover. A panoramic history of the savage combat on the Western Front between 1914 and 1918 that came to define modern warfare. The Western Front evokes images of mud-spattered men in waterlogged trenches, shielded from artillery blasts and machine-gun fire by a few feet of dirt. This iconic setting was the most critical arena of the Great War, a 400-mile combat zone stretching from Belgium to Switzerland where more than three million Allied and German soldiers struggled during four years of almost continuous combat. It has persisted in our collective memory as a tragic waste of human life and a symbol of the horrors of industrialized warfare. In this epic narrative history, the first volume in a groundbreaking trilogy on the Great War, the acclaimed military historian Nick Lloyd captures the horrific fighting on the Western Front beginning with the surprise German invasion of Belgium in August 1914 and taking us to the Armistice of November 1918. Drawing on French, British, German, and American sources, Lloyd weaves a kaleidoscopic chronicle of the Marne, Passchendaele, the Meuse-Argonne, and other critical battles, which reverberated across Europe and the wider war. From the trenches, where men as young as 17 suffered and died, to the headquarters behind the lines where Generals Haig, Joffre, Hindenburg, and Pershing developed their plans for battle, Lloyd gives us a view of the war both intimate and strategic, putting us amid the mud and smoke while at the same time depicting the larger stakes of every encounter. He shows us a dejected Kaiser Wilhelm II―soon to be eclipsed in power by his own generals―lamenting the botched Schlieffen Plan; French soldiers piling atop one another in the trenches of Verdun; British infantryman wandering through the frozen wilderness in the days after the Battle of the Somme; and General Erich Ludendorff pursuing a ruthless policy of total war, leading an eleventh-hour attack on Reims even as his men succumbed to the Spanish Flu. As Lloyd reveals, far from being a site of attrition and stalemate, the Western Front was a simmering, dynamic “cauldron of war” defined by extraordinary scientific and tactical innovation. It was on the Western Front that the modern technologies―machine guns, mortars, grenades, and howitzers―were refined and developed into effective killing machines. It was on the Western Front that chemical warfare, in the form of poison gas, was first unleashed. And it was on the Western Front that tanks and aircraft were introduced, causing a dramatic shift away from nineteenth-century bayonet tactics toward modern combined arms, reinforced by heavy artillery, that forever changed the face of war. Brimming with vivid detail and insight, The Western Front is a work in the tradition of Barbara Tuchman and John Keegan, Rick Atkinson and Antony Beevor: an authoritative portrait of modern warfare and its far-reaching human and historical consequences.35 black-and-white illustrations, 8 maps
On 28 June 1914 the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, the heir apparent to the Austrian Empire, at Sarajevo in Bosnia was the main cause of World War-1 (1914-18). Tension between the major European power had, however, been growing for some time, fuelled mainly by Germany's ambition to be the major power in Europe and as a competitor to Britain in Commerce and trade. This had led to the formation of two power blocks in Europe, the Triple Alliance of Germany, Austria and Hungary; and the Triple Entente of England, French and Russia. Few would have imagined that the pistol shots in Sarajevo would lead to a brutal four year war and would draw in most of the world. Last of all did the Indian Army expect to be pulled out of fighting Pathans to fighting Germans and the Turks. The Indian Army, at the start of World War-II (1939-45), had a strength of 1,94,373 personnel; just a little more than at the start of World War-I. In the Western Desert, in Eritrea and Italy, Indian Divisions engaged the Germans and Italians. The 4th, 5th and 8th Indian Divisions distinguished themselves in a series of hard-fought campaigns. A time came when the British 8th Army depended on the 4th Division to crack up Axis formations in their long and final retreat. “There are no winners in an war and it only brings destruction .” Tune in to know bravery of Indian Army in World wars in this episode Jai Hind Comment what you thought about the episode.

Y'all this book is incredible. I'm a history/politics/anthropology nerd, but literally if you're even vaguely interested in any of those things OR if you just wanna know why the world is the way it is, this is your book. In this episode, I touch on three of the regions discussed in the book- the Mid East, Africa and Latin America- to give you just a hint of what you'll be learning about in this book. It's so good. ALSO I mispronounce Triple Entente, I know, but I didn't realize it until I was editing. YOLOinstagram: @ivebeenthinkingpodSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/ivebeenthinkingpod)
On the 23rd May 1915, Italy entered the First World War on the side of the Triple Entente and declared war on ...
Welcome to the World Bar. It's a tough locale, with scratched tables and angry patrons, and you won't find it on Yelp. But it's here that the most powerful European countries stumbled into the most devastating war the world had ever known in August 1914. Here's the original meme that inspired this episode: I left out a few lines to simplify things, but I love it. This is a look at the different alliances during the war. The green countries are neutral. The pink countries are the Central Powers. Note that Bulgaria and the Ottoman Empire didn't join the Central Powers until later in the war. The tan countries are the Triple Entente. Similarly, Italy, Romania and Portugal also didn't join this alliance until later in the war. Introducing Austria Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife Sophie. Their assassination on June 28, 1914 began the crisis that ended in the Great War. Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany gave Austria a "blank check" to take any actions it chose against Serbia. This is the emperor in only one of his outrageous uniforms. The skull on the cap is a nice touch. Germany's plan for defeating both France and Russia was to put Russia on hold and make a lightening strike against France. ThiTSchlieffenhe plan, named after the general who developed it, was to sweep across neutral Belgium and Luxembourg into northern France and circle around Paris. The French and British stopped Germany at the outskirts of the capital. In early 1917, the German Foreign Minister Arthur Zimmermann sent a telegram to Mexico urging it to join the war against the United States. In return, it would be awarded all of the U.S. states it lost in 1848. This is a copy of the telegram that was intercepted by British code-breakers and translated into English. Outrage over the telegram was the final straw that broke U.S. resolve to stay out of the war. U.S. President Woodrow Wilson originally didn't want to join the war, but once he was thoroughly riled up, he threw all American resources into defeating Germany. Wilfred Owen wrote some of the most devastating poetry of World War I. He was a young British officer, and he was killed one week before the Armistice. Here's a link to the complete text of "Dulce et Decorum Est," (https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/46560/dulce-et-decorum-est) and here's Christopher Eccleston (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qB4cdRgIcB8) reading the poem for the BBC. Nobel laureate Rudyard Kipling was once a huge supporter of World War I, but after his son Jack died, his tone changed. Here's a link to several excerpts from his 1919 collection Epitaphs of the War. (https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/57409/epitaphs-of-the-war) For more World War I poetry, I recommend this collection (https://www.poetryfoundation.org/articles/70139/the-poetry-of-world-war-i) by the Poetry Foundation.

The Emancipation Proclamation Station Welcome back to the Emancipation podcast station the place to hear about history, researched and retold through the eyes of Middle and High school students Beginning of World War I: Ella - One of the known causes of world war 1 turning into a world war was the alliance system. In 1839, the treaty of London was signed which was where Britain was going to protect the neutrality of Belgium. In 1879 the dual alliance treaty was signed between Germany and Austria-Hungary to protect each other from Russia. Many other alliances were also forming at the time. Ethan - Germany’s navy was starting to get threatening to Britain’s navy. Britain took necessary precautions and signed a document with France called the Entente Cordial, tipping the odds of any war in in their favor. This made Germany realize they were a threat and thought they were being pushed back down, so in turn they became more aggressive and ready for war. Hunter- something that happened about three months before the war was the assassination of: Archduke Franz Ferdinand, on June 28 1914, in Sarajevo, resulting in the July Crisis. How Austria-Hungary responded to this assassination was by issuing an ultimatum to Serbia. Serbia’s reply to the ultimatum didn’t satisfy the Austrians, afterword the two moved to a war footing. Emma - The power that the nations of Germany and Italy possessed at the beginning of the first world war was impressive as it was, but we have to take into account how quickly they had acquired it. Both of these countries, though they had deep cultural roots, were very new as official nations. Both had formed during the Franco-Prussian war barely more than forty years previous but now held power over regions stretching from Africa to east Asia. Audrey - Starting in 1892 there was an alliance between France and Russia and this was the Franco Russian Military Convention. Then in the early 1900s there were a series of agreements between Great Britain France and Russia so that they were in good terms with each other. The alliance between Great Britain France and Russia was the Triple Entente (which means agreements). Skylar - World war I or sometimes known as the Great War started on July 28th, 1914, the war started in Europe. The war was in Africa, the middle east, Pacific islands, indian ocean, China, north and south atlantic oceans, and like i said Europe. They think that this war killed about 16 million people died from direct cause of this war. Gabe - The war started basically because russia wanted to protect serbia and germany wanted to protect austria so when austria went to fight serbia russia went to fight germany Ben - America only began to fight in World War 1 in 1917 ( April 6th to be specific ) with their allies. They had alliances with Russia, Britain, and France at the time, making them a strong force at the time. Led by major General John J. Pershing, 2 million American soldiers fought despite many American citizens wanting the country to stay neutral. Other fronts of World War I: 1.Hunter- One of the many different fronts of the war was the Italian front, the italians were apart of the Triple Alliance during this time, but italy stayed out of the war in 1914 because it claimed that Austria had not been attacked so therefor italy didn’t have to support Austria. In all reality the Italians had a secret agreement with the allies, the allies said that they would give the italians some Austrian territory if they attacked Austria-Hungary. EthanOL - As soon as the war started Japan decided they wanted what the Germans had. Japan was already allied Britain so that they could attack Germany without Britain growing apart from them. They attacked Tsingtao which was a German base in China. This was the first naval/aerial assault ever. They didn’t use exactly aircraft carriers but they did carry their aircrafts. This was called the Siege of Tsingtao which took place in 1914. Ella - Serbia was a very small country with approximately 4.5 million people and an army of around 400,000 soldiers. Almost everyone who could be in the army at the time was in it but it still ended up being destroyed with 60% of the army getting killed, which decreased Serbia's population by 16%. Emma - Italy’s agreements with the Triple Alliance and the Allies were only two of a long series of strategic alliances and deals the nation made on the road to the first world war. Their entry into the Triple Alliance was the first move, which was actually a surprising one, due to the fact that Italy and the Austro-Hungarian empire (another member of the triple alliance) had been enemies previously. Twenty years later, which still under this pact, they made a secret alliance with France. Twelve years after that, the Austro-Hungarian empire entered the war. Only one year later, they entered the treaty of London, an agreement with the Triple entente (england, russia, and france) to fight against their original allies, exit the triple alliance, and declare war on the Austro-Hungarian empire. 5.Skylar - Italy took part in the triple alliance in 1882 when they agreed to be apart of it, they were one of the first countries to take part in it. The whole reason that it was called the triple alliance was because there were three countries in it Italy, Austria-Hungary and Germany. This was kind of a weird mix because they didn’t really like each other but still said they would protect each other if worse comes to worst. Italy was making deals with other places like france in 1902. It was kind of just a lot of back stabbing. Gabe - The Italians helped the allies by attacking austria hungary which is in the triple alliance so basically they made an alliance and were like let's help each other i mean we all don't like each other and would love to see each other destroyed so why not make an alliance really smart and then they dont even help each other its completely useless Ben - Japan played a big part in the fight for the West Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean. Most of the reason Japan fought was because they wanted influence in China, but even with the help of Sun Yat-sen, they didn’t have many successes. 8. Western and Eastern fronts of World War I: 1.Hunter- during this time in the war the Germans were fighting two countries, one of which during the western front was France, the Germans had thought if they were to defeat the French (Russia’s ally) in four weeks then they could have an advantage against the Russians in the Eastern front. Ethan- The Germans realized that after the Franco-Prussian War, they were going to be due for another war with France. Germany unified in advance to make sure France had a disadvantage. The humiliation was huge and Germany took Alsace and Lorraine, which were mineral rich and valuable to anyone who controlled it. Germany realized this might hurt them later because France was allied with Russia so if there was war that it’d be on 2 fronts. Ella - The western front in world war 1 was much smaller that the eastern front, but the western front could uses trenches as a defence system since they had less land to defend. The eastern front however, could not use this method due to the land being so wide and them not having enough people to dig them. Even if they were able to dig some, they wouldn't have enough and the western people could easily go around. Emma - In February of the year 1916, the battle of Verdun took place when the Germans launched an attack on the French military at the border between Germany and France. Unlike a lot of the other offensive acts in the war, this battle was not intended to result in the gain of territory for the Germans. The point of this attack was to cause the French to send so many troops, and to cause so many casualties that the French would deplete all their resources and be forced to withdraw from the war. Audrey - In WW1 the Germans were using poison gas as a weapon. Some of the poison gases are chlorine gas, which would immediately cause you to choke to death, phosgene gas, which wouldn’t cause choking and this allowed the gas to get into to lungs and there was a delayed effect, and mustard gas, another that wouldn’t cause choking but it would cause severe blistering which would take you out of the war. Ben - Germany eventually gained peace with Russia on May 3rd, 1918. Russia accomplished this by giving Germany a significant amount of land. This was done under the Bolshevik Government of Russia, which was founded in 1917 after a revolution overthrew the provisional government. Skylar- After the battle of Verdun the british and the French decide to go against a different part of the front, this time close to the Somme river in july of 1916. This battle was the first time they used tanks, it was an extremely bloody battle. 8. Blockades and American entry: Hunter- On May 7, 1915, a German submarine sunk the British ocean liner called Lusitania, ending in the deaths of nearly 1,200 people and that includes 128 Americans. The event strained diplomatic relations between Washington and Berlin, and turned public opinion on Germany. Skylar - the united states had maintained being neutral in the war up until this point, Wilson had just won presidency again because he had kept the US out of the war. Germany was getting pretty desperate so they were going to go back to their idea of unrestricted submarine warfare but they knew if they did that the US would side with their allies. In january of 1917 the Zimmerman Telegram was created by Arthur Zimmerman sent a encoded telegram to mexico, it was encoded because it had to pass through lines that the US controlled. He told them that he knows a way to slow them down. (if someone wants to go off of this that would b awesome) 3.Ethan - In April 1917 the administration had thought about it and Germany had took it too far, with their submarine warfare. President Wilson decided that war on Germany was inevitable and sent a famous message to Congress for why it needs to go to war with Germany. On April 4th Congress decided to allow war on Germany, and war pursued quickly. Now, many people were deciding for themselves why we were at war. Many public opinion were stated, some saying it was inevitable, some saying we should stay out of war. Ella - So the United States entered world war 1 for multiple reasons including them having financial ties, trade ties, and cultural ties with the British. Another reason being the British using a lot of successful propaganda. Gabe - im a take a step back to skylar so the encoded telegram was intercepted by the british and then shared with america and it said that they would help mexico take texas arizona and new mexico back from the united states if they helped the germans in the war Audrey - In November of 1914 the British declared the entire North Sea a war zone so if a ship came they would probably be destroyed. The ships especially couldn’t carry any contraband, and food was considered a contraband. So the Germans and the Austrians had to start rationing food to the point of eating only 1k calories a day. This was making the central powers weaker not only because they couldn’t get what they needed for war but people were dying and there were about 400k deaths due to starvation. Emma - In 1917, Senator George Norris issued a speech in opposition to the entry of the United States of America into the World War. In his speech he acknowledged that both England and Germany were wrong in the actions of war they had chosen to take; declaring certain areas war zones, but he did not support the entry into the war and listed several alternative actions that could have been taken. Ben - Most of the American soldiers starting arriving and began fighting on the battlefields of france on the twenty sixth of June. Britain and France also sent additional officers to help train the newly drafted American soldiers. World War I shapes the Middle East: 1.Hunter- The first world war truly shaped the middle east, but the aftermath of the war made the largest change in the region as we know it. One of the events that had changed the middle east was when Russia had staked a claim on Istanbul and waterways linking the Black seas to the Mediterranean seas, and the French claimed Syria and Cilicia in modern day Turkey. Skylar - the British wanted the help of the Arab’s because they wanted them to fight the Ottoman’s on the Palestine and Sinai fronts. So they told Hussein bin ali if he helped them that they would give him free territory, for an independent arab state and he agrees. After that he names himself king of the Hejaz in 1916. Ethan - Britain had a presence in the Middle East at the time of the end of the war. Egypt was under the protection of Britain, and when they didn’t get freedom until 1922 there was a sort of revolt. In the end the Egyptians won this slight war and obtained their freedom. At this time Britain was also protecting Kuwait and they have since the 1800s. They still did not get their freedom handed to them until 1961. Ella - In 1915, 6,500 people from the British army were sieged in Kut, after retreating from Ctesiphon by the ottoman Empire for 147 days till they were forced to surrender. Gabe - The Ibn Saud ruled the basically the other side of saudi arabia right next to Hussein bin ali and he actually goes and takes the Hejaz empire and declares himself king of the sauds in the hejaz in 1926 and this is how you get saudi arabia Emma - The British troops (made up of all the various countries that were part of the British empire, such as India and New Zealand) started their Middle Eastern campaign at the southern end of Mesopotamia, near the Persian gulf. They moved northward along the Tigris river, capturing land until they held control over the majority of what is now Iraq. Meanwhile on the other side of the land mass in Egypt, they were on the defensive side of the war for quite a while while the Ottomans attempted, and failed, to take capture Suez canal from British control. 7.Ben - After the Middle East changed, a lot of its boundaries and borders did too. They looked a lot closer to what they look like today. This happens a lot with very large wars because tons of land gets conquered, traded, or destroyed. 8. Aftermath of World War I Skylar - Woodrow Wilson gave a speech on January 8th, 1918 that is called Woodrow Wilson’s fourteen points. The fourteen points were statements that Wilson gave to try to make peace with everyone and end the war. During his speech he talked about why he thought the war started and what they could do to end it with peace instead of hatred. He talked about free trade, how all conversations should be open for everyone to see, freedom of navigation, and many more things. 2.Hunter- the aftermath of this war truly was amazing, this war had changed so much of the world that we know now, for instance: WW1 had brought about the temporary political disruption of four venerable dynasties-- Germany, Austria-Hungary, Russia, and Turkey. This war also brought up a massive social disruption, as millions of women entered the workforce to support men who had went to war, and to replace those who never came back. Ella - World War one ended at the end of 1918, so in 1919 they started discussing the terms of peace so they held the Paris Peace conference. Now during the peace conference the winners decide the “terms of peace” but they all had different outlooks about it (someone plz build off of me if you can if not cool tho Gabe - One of the “Terms of peace” that came out of the Paris Peace conference is the Treaty of Versailles which probably was the treaty to germany it said that germany was gonna pay for all of the allies losses they had to pay something like 60 billion in today's money and that's not including the resources they payed they also were only allowed to have 100,000 men in there army there weren't allowed to have any u boats battleships tanks basically nothing mechanized and we took lots of their territory and split and was given to the allies 5..Emma - The Treaty of Versailles had a huge effect on the German economy and government at the time. Another term of the treaty was that they were not allowed to make an alliance with Austria, due to the cultural and linguistic ties between the two. They were also occupied by the allies in the Saar region of Germany, near the French border. This area was a large coal mining area and for fifteen years, all the coal mined there got shipped to France. That still left a large portion of reparations to be paid back in currency so the government basically printed a ton of money, and tried to convert it into other currencies which resulted in serious inflation all the way into the twenties. So when that happened and they could no longer pay in money, France occupied the Ruhr region and began shipping steel and coal out of there. Ethan - WWI left many families without a parent or without a child to come home to. Many soldier died in battle and from starvation, so in turn this was one of the most bloody battles in history. The U.S. lost approximately 116,708 soldiers in war. Not to mention the prisoners of war that died from many causes like starvation and disease. For those whose remains were never found we have the Tomb of The Unknown Soldier. This is a tradition that has been kept up since 1931 and have never not been guarded since then Ben - Strangely enough, World War 1 kind of helped Japan’s economy. The demand for japanese products became very large and the economy flourished for a time. This also happened similarly in America, because the American economy in the 1920’s was doing very nice. Audrey - There were approximately 16 million deaths due to WWI 8-10 million being military. About 60% of the soldiers deaths were the Entente and 40% were the Central Powers. But 6-7 million that died were civilians and out of that over a million of the civilian deaths were due to direct military action were the rest was caused by starvation and disease.

World War I shapes the Middle East: 1.Hunter- The first world war truly shaped the middle east, but the aftermath of the war made the largest change in the region as we know it. One of the events that had changed the middle east was when Russia had staked a claim on Istanbul and waterways linking the Black seas to the Mediterranean seas, and the French claimed Syria and Cilicia in modern day Turkey. Skylar - the British wanted the help of the Arab’s because they wanted them to fight the Ottoman’s on the Palestine and Sinai fronts. So they told Hussein bin ali if he helped them that they would give him free territory, for an independent arab state and he agrees. After that he names himself king of the Hejaz in 1916. Ethan - Britain had a presence in the Middle East at the time of the end of the war. Egypt was under the protection of Britain, and when they didn’t get freedom until 1922 there was a sort of revolt. In the end the Egyptians won this slight war and obtained their freedom. At this time Britain was also protecting Kuwait and they have since the 1800s. They still did not get their freedom handed to them until 1961. Ella - In 1915, 6,500 people from the British army were sieged in Kut, after retreating from Ctesiphon by the ottoman Empire for 147 days till they were forced to surrender. Gabe - The Ibn Saud ruled the basically the other side of saudi arabia right next to Hussein bin ali and he actually goes and takes the Hejaz empire and declares himself king of the sauds in the hejaz in 1926 and this is how you get saudi arabia Emma - The British troops (made up of all the various countries that were part of the British empire, such as India and New Zealand) started their Middle Eastern campaign at the southern end of Mesopotamia, near the Persian gulf. They moved northward along the Tigris river, capturing land until they held control over the majority of what is now Iraq. Meanwhile on the other side of the land mass in Egypt, they were on the defensive side of the war for quite a while while the Ottomans attempted, and failed, to take capture Suez canal from British control. 7.Ben - After the Middle East changed, a lot of its boundaries and borders did too. They looked a lot closer to what they look like today. This happens a lot with very large wars because tons of land gets conquered, traded, or destroyed. 8. Aftermath of World War I Skylar - Woodrow Wilson gave a speech on January 8th, 1918 that is called Woodrow Wilson’s fourteen points. The fourteen points were statements that Wilson gave to try to make peace with everyone and end the war. During his speech he talked about why he thought the war started and what they could do to end it with peace instead of hatred. He talked about free trade, how all conversations should be open for everyone to see, freedom of navigation, and many more things. 2.Hunter- the aftermath of this war truly was amazing, this war had changed so much of the world that we know now, for instance: WW1 had brought about the temporary political disruption of four venerable dynasties-- Germany, Austria-Hungary, Russia, and Turkey. This war also brought up a massive social disruption, as millions of women entered the workforce to support men who had went to war, and to replace those who never came back. Ella - World War one ended at the end of 1918, so in 1919 they started discussing the terms of peace so they held the Paris Peace conference. Now during the peace conference the winners decide the “terms of peace” but they all had different outlooks about it (someone plz build off of me if you can if not cool tho Gabe - One of the “Terms of peace” that came out of the Paris Peace conference is the Treaty of Versailles which probably was the treaty to germany it said that germany was gonna pay for all of the allies losses they had to pay something like 60 billion in today's money and that's not including the resources they payed they also were only allowed to have 100,000 men in there army there weren't allowed to have any u boats battleships tanks basically nothing mechanized and we took lots of their territory and split and was given to the allies 5..Emma - The Treaty of Versailles had a huge effect on the German economy and government at the time. Another term of the treaty was that they were not allowed to make an alliance with Austria, due to the cultural and linguistic ties between the two. They were also occupied by the allies in the Saar region of Germany, near the French border. This area was a large coal mining area and for fifteen years, all the coal mined there got shipped to France. That still left a large portion of reparations to be paid back in currency so the government basically printed a ton of money, and tried to convert it into other currencies which resulted in serious inflation all the way into the twenties. So when that happened and they could no longer pay in money, France occupied the Ruhr region and began shipping steel and coal out of there. Ethan - WWI left many families without a parent or without a child to come home to. Many soldier died in battle and from starvation, so in turn this was one of the most bloody battles in history. The U.S. lost approximately 116,708 soldiers in war. Not to mention the prisoners of war that died from many causes like starvation and disease. For those whose remains were never found we have the Tomb of The Unknown Soldier. This is a tradition that has been kept up since 1931 and have never not been guarded since then Ben - Strangely enough, World War 1 kind of helped Japan’s economy. The demand for japanese products became very large and the economy flourished for a time. This also happened similarly in America, because the American economy in the 1920’s was doing very nice. Audrey - There were approximately 16 million deaths due to WWI 8-10 million being military. About 60% of the soldiers deaths were the Entente and 40% were the Central Powers. But 6-7 million that died were civilians and out of that over a million of the civilian deaths were due to direct military action were the rest was caused by starvation and disease.
Did World War I end with a bang or a whimper? Prof Phil Nash joins us to discuss the complicated road to the armistice of November 11, 1918. A dozen countries were involved, the Russian Revolution intervened, and the US military provided fresh troops for the Triple Entente of Britain, France, and Russia. And the German alliance gradually fell apart. But there’s so much more than that! Listen and learn.
La Primera Guerra Mundial, fue una guerra mundial centrada en Europa que comenzó el 28 de julio de 1914 y se libró hasta el 11 de noviembre de 1918. Involucró a todas las grandes potencias del mundo, que se alinearon en dos bandos opuestos: los Aliados de la Triple Entente y las Potencias Centrales de la Triple Alianza. Pero durante los 50 años anteriores a la contienda, los Estados europeos vivieron una paz. Si embargo esta paz se veía inestable dada las rivalidades políticas y económicas, originando prácticamente una crisis internacional. En tales circunstancias los diversos países siguieron una carrera armamentista para lo cual destinaron un presupuesto especial, aumentaron sus fuerzas terrestres y navales y adquirieron nuevos equipos y armamentos. En un momento así podía estallar, en cualquier momento el choque armado.

Comenzamos en HDO una serie de programas dedicados a la figura del trombonista alemán Albert Mangelsdorff con motivo de la reedición por parte del sello MPS de media docena de grabaciones lideradas o co-lideradas por este virtuoso, innovador y renovador del trombón en el jazz. Para profundizar en su figura, Pachi Tapiz charló con el trombonista Marco Bellizzi acerca de su figura, en primer lugar, para continuar con sus reflexiones acerca de todas esas grabaciones. A continuación suena la música del CD a trombón solo ("una joya" según Bellizzi) Trombirds, el CD a trío con Pierre Favre y Léon Francioli titulado Triple Entente, y el LP mezcla de country, folk y jazz (más o menos free) titulado Wild Goose que grabó junto a los cantantes Colin Wilkie y Shirley Hart.

The Triple Entente Beer Summit was a great success, with an audience that filled the Washington Firehouse loft and a cast that mashed up Lawfare, Rational Security, and the Steptoe Cyberlaw Podcast. We attribute the podcast’s freewheeling interchange to the engaged audience, our profound respect for each other, and, mostly, the beer. After a discussion of between the combined panels, we throw the event over to the audience, which demonstrates that we could have produced almost as good a program by randomly selecting audience members to appear on the panel with us.
