World War I TEST coming on March 7th and 8th

A 41 question test will be given about World War I on March 8th (Period 6) and March 9th (Periods 2,3,4).  Most of the material is covered in class and on your guided notes.  However, I did not have time to cover everything, so here is some extra material for you to review.

I have NUMBERED them, but the number is NOT THE SAME on the test.

1.  Many of the leaders were related to each other.  The king of England, the Tsar of Russia and the Kaiser of Germany were all cousins.  As relatives, they were rivals and often saw their family relationships reflected in the power of their country.
2. Each side thought the war would be over by Christmas
3.  Americans were divided because over 1/4 were descended from Germans.
4.  The Zimmerman telegram--which tried to get Mexico to attack America was the most ludicrous reasons for the U.S. to enter the war--but many took this threat seriously.
5.  You must know the years of the war.
6.  When Russia gets out of the war because of a peace treaty signed with Lenin, the new communist leader, remember that the German soldiers who were fighting the Russians now move over to the Western front.
7.  Airplanes were mainly used to scout enemy positions.
8.  Communist revolutions, though not as large as what was happening in Russia, also occurred in Germany during the last days of the war.
9. Germany lost the most men in  World War I,
10.  The Germans at first refused to sign the Treaty of Versailles.
11. During the war, the U.S. used price controls to prevent unfair profits because of war.
12.  Remember what sedition is:  limiting free speech that might harm the war effort.
13.  We now pay for our wars with taxes.
14.  Remember, the United States did not join the League of Nations.
