How did the US entering the World War 1 change World War 1?
The entry of the United States into World War I affected the war's outcome profoundly: the additional naval, air, and especially ground unit entering the conflict gave the western allies a clear advantage over German forces. It can safely be said that the American contribution not only hastened the end of the war; it ensured it.
Why did the US joined the Philippines war?
At the beginning of WWII the Philippines were a US possession, and had been since 1898, when they were taken from Spain in the Spanish-American War. The US had a large military presence in the area, including a major airbase at Clark Field and the headquarters of the US Asiatic Fleet in Manila Bay. This US military presence in the Philippines was the reason the Japanese attacked the US, in Hawaii and the Philippines. The Japanese planned to conquer the Dutch East Indies (today's Indonesia) and knew this would probably mean war with the US. Directly between Japan and the Dutch East Indies lie the Philippines, so the Japanese attacked the US forces in the Philippines to prevent the US from interfering with their conquests. They needed the East Indies for the oil there, because the US had cut off oil sales to Japan. The Japanese were divided over whether to also attack Pearl Harbor, but in the end decided to, so as to do as much damage to the US Navy as possible, which would gain them time to consolidate their conquests. The Japanese probably would have attacked the Philippines eventually anyway, but they attacked when they did because of the US presence there.

What happened after the battle of the somme?
Although the Battle of The Somme ended in stalemate, the British learnt many important lessons tactically. By 1917 the British had developed tactics that were more suited to trench warfare, and the Battle Of Arras (April) initially saw important gains. Also it transpired that many shells fired by the Royal Field Artillery at the Somme had not exploded due to poor quality production and this was greatly improved by 1917. The Germans re-organised their defensive line and started to rely on series of concrete pillboxes as a front line defense. The boxes were placed so that there was full machine gun coverage across the front line. This new fortified line was known to the allies "the Hindenburg Line". 1917 saw the Russian revolution leading to the withdrawal of Russia from the War. Germany were able to move its army from the Eastern Front to France and Belgium. The United States entered the war in 1917 (although they weren't fully operational until spring 1918). Recognising that the US could pour huge amounts of manpower to the Western Front, the Germans launched massive attacks in March 1918 initially meeting with success but eventually running out of steam. After this the Allies counter attacked and suddenly after nearly four years of trench warfare, the war became mobile again after the Hindenburg Line was breached. By October 1918, Germany had lost its main ally in the Austro-Hungary empire and eventually were ask the Allies for an Armistice. This was agreed and on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month the guns stopped firing.
What was the other name of the central powers and the allied powers?
The original alliance of England, France, and Russia, which existed before WW I and before the US joined the alliance, was called the Triple Entente, which is derived from the French word meaning understanding. These three nations, in other words, had an understanding among each other that they would mutually resist any aggression from the central powers. I have not heard of any other name that applied to the central powers prior to WW I.
The sinking of the Lusitania and similar incidents drew the US into World War 1?
The sinking of the Lusitania was the main reason the United States joined World War I. Previously the United States had avoided becoming involved in the War but on May 7, 1915 the Germans bombed and sunk the Lusitania. This enraged the people of the U.S because the Lusitania was a pleasure cruise carrying U.S and British civilians. The people of the Unites States called for action, therefore the government and military became involved in the war.
What were machine guns used for in ww1?
They were very effective at killing people. MG's could repel massive attacks and waves of enemy combatants as well as provide suppressing fire so your unit could move, get fire superiority, or get fire superiority on it's own.
Who were Italy's allies in World War I?
Italy under Benito Mussolini became part of the Axis powers with Germany (and later Japan). The Axis forces were opposed by 'the Allies'. Italy began its part in World War 2 on June 10, 1940 by helping Germany invade France. This brought Italy into war with France, and Great Britain (& Commonwealth countries). There were other allied nations: Belgium, Netherlands, Denmark, Norway, & Poland-that were already occupied by the Germans or soon to be. So you can also count these as enemies of Italy in 1940. Some other countries would join the Axis during the war-these were Hungary, Croatia (after Yugoslavia was occupied), Bulgaria & Rumania. Italy had already attacked and occupied Eithopia (in East Africa). Italy had already occupied Albania, and then would attack Greece in October 1940. In 1941 Germany would attack Yugoslavia and Greece (to help Italy), thereby adding Yugoslavia to the growing list of Italy's enemies. Stalin's Russia was a temporary ally of Hitler's Germany August 1939 to July 1941. Russia was not part of the Axis, however when Hitler attacked Russia in July 1941, then Italy also participated in the fight against Russia. By the way, after Germany & Italy defeated France in 1940, a French puppet government (Vichy France) ran the southern half of France on behalf of Germany. So you could say that Vichy France was an ally of the Axis. Well in December 1941, thanks to the Japanese attacks on the United States, and Germany's declaration of war on the USA, Mussolini (Italy) declared war on the USA also. The widening of the war in the Pacific and now including the US added to Italy's enemies list: USA, China, Brazil, Portugal and a few other nations in Asia & Central & South America. In 1943 the Allies invaded & seized Sicily (part of Italy), and then invaded the Italian mainland at Salerno, south of Naples. These events caused the majority of the Italian people to turn against Mussolini. The Italian government would split into the two factions: Pro-German Fascists and the Pro-Allies Republican. The Republican faction of government was formally endorsed by Italy's King, and ended its war with the allies, and would later declare war on Germany, thus switching sides while German forces resisted the Allied invasion in Italy. The part of Italy occupied by Germany would be in-name only aligned with Germany under Fascist leadership. Most Italians were now sympathetic to the Allied cause and considered Allied forces to be liberators. Italy would end the war on the side of the allies, however its earlier siding with Germany would put it in an unusual political position at the end of the war. Also Bulgaria & Rumania would switch sides to the Allies after the Russians invaded.

How did US entered world war 1?
Also, the US felt threatened by Germany, who were the aggressors, and not only secretly violated American neutrality by asking Mexico to attack the US, but (according to the US at least) bombed numerous passenger ships (although there is some sound proof that the Lusitania was carrying weaponry to the Allies) killing quite a few American citizens. Then Germany promised to stop doing that, and kept doing it anyway. This caused American merchant shippers to throw their support behind the war, not to mention the Allies' propaganda techniques in America.
Who wrote 'In Flanders Fields'?
This very powerful war poem was written by Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae, MD - of the Canadian Army.
Nationalism fueled competition among European nations, as countries sought to assert their dominance and expand their influence. Imperialism intensified rivalries, with nations vying for colonies and resources, leading to conflicts over territorial claims. These tensions culminated in alliances, as countries formed the Allied Powers, primarily motivated by mutual defense against perceived threats from rival nations, while the Central Powers emerged from nations that sought to support one another's imperial ambitions and national interests. This complex interplay of nationalism and imperialism ultimately contributed to the outbreak of World War I.

What factors are true about centripetal force?
Centripetal force is a force that is required to exist to have a circular motion. Thus the centripetal force can be any force that is able to accomplish this task. Examples of centripetal forces are the gravitational force, the electromagnetic force, the frictional force, or the constraint forces. The centripetal force depends on the system that is involved in be in a spin of a rigid body, or of a planetary motion, etc. Each particular system that requires a rotation or a spin needs to have a corresponding centripetal force.
