History is important: many things happened in our past that some people still don't know about. It is important for us to know and understand. World War I World War I (World War I or World War I), also known as World War I, was a global war centered in Europe, beginning on July 28, 1914, and lasting until November 11, 1918. from the time occurred until the Second World War approached, was called simply World War or Great War, and thereafter World War I or World War I. How it began It's very complicated to explain, but to put it simply Almost every nation in Europe was involved in a complicated alliance with other nations, with all sorts of treaties and peace agreements. Think of modern Iraq, with Kurds, Shiites and Sunnis, but bigger. Nobody likes anyone else and everyone wants to argue. Well, the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria started it all, and is considered the "official" start of the First World War. Importance of World War I: It is important to know about World War I because it represented every conflict that existed in Europe, devastated most European countries at the time of its conclusion, and paved the way for World War II and the rise of fascism. This Great War was also quite brutal. It marked the end of the old world war and modern warfare, with the use of submarines, land mines, poison gas, air warfare and reconnaissance, tanks, grenades and machine guns replaced cavalry and bayonets. This was very important because it was mainly military technology and US military forces that shifted the long-held stalemate, which seemed to hold Europe hostage by constant wars and shifting battlefields for years. The participation of the United States, officially last... middle of paper... fewer servants with dentures and began to bring more slaves into the colonies, black rights were taken away law after law. The importance of knowing about racial segregation: It is important to know about racial segregation because it allows us as human beings to understand each other and respect each other. We cannot eliminate our ignorance towards our fellow men, while if we eliminate our ignorance. Together we can grow towards enlightenment, become a better man, and improve society as a whole. How it ended: Racial segregation ended when Martin Luther King Jr. gave a famous speech and was going through congress and it wasn't yet clear that it would end. BUT if you noticed it never ended because people still today are part of racial groups and make racist comments about people. And if you really think about it EVERYONE is segregating other people these days.
