How did WW1 change Europe and America?

World War I was responsible for the deaths of about 120,000 Americans and over 200,000 wounded soldiers. It also cost the US a lot of money, which shoved the US into an economic crisis that could be blamed for the crash of the stock market in 1929, causing the Great Depression. WWI also threatened the national security of the US. The US wished to remain neutral during the war but was constantly thwarted by Germany. Germany ordered its navy to strike down any Allied ship, which caused the deaths of hundreds of Americans aboard British cruiseliners. But the direct cause of the US's joining of WWI was the Zimmerman Telegram, sent by Germany to Mexico. It offered Mexico aid if they attacked the US, and if they won they would receive most of the land they lost during the Mexican-American War. Of course, Mexico did not accept as the US was much too powerful for them, but the US had to do something because it was just embarrassed globally. They declared war on Germany and were a major reason why the Allies won WWI.

What are the main sources of income in Luxembourg?

Primarily the financial industry. The Luxembourgish government actually actively encourages growth in this industry by providing a favorable tax climate (thus attracting banks), and by introducing favorable laws for investment funds (more laissez-faire, ie by reducing administrative procedures and auditing checks in favor of market mechanisms).

In addition, according to wikipedia (entry:economy of Luxembourg) steel and tourism also account for a major part of the economy. Also, Goodyear/Dunlop has a major production centre in Luxembourg. With over 1000 employees, and given that Luxembourg is a small country, this may possibly also be considered as "important".

Well, the humans wanted good supplies, and the Fertile Crescent was there. The Fertile Crescent is an area at the end/beginning of the Nile River that generated FABULOUS soil for crops.

Is Germany in eastern or western Europe?

Germany is neither East nor west. Certainly on a political level it is intertwined with western Europe. However from a cultural point, Germany shares immense similarities with the westernmost Slavic nations. Some of these include the most intimate things a culture can produce such as food. Take for example the simple side dish Sauerkraut. This dish is prominent in all the eastern European countries all the way to Moscow. It suddenly loses popularity once one exits Germany in the west. Lively 3/4 time accordion music is another example. Though one may laugh at this, it is uniquely "Central" and Eastern Europeans that truly appreciate this genre of music, it flows in their veins so to speak. Germany is best described as Central Europe, because everything that flows from east to west or visa versa i.e. including commerce, trade, as well as cultural ideas MUST flow through Germany
