Question

In what way imerialism led to the world war

Answer 1

Reasons of First World War

1. Imperialism of the Europeans : After the industrial revolution, the European nations were in search of colonies for cheap raw materials. This led to intense rivalry among them to acquire colonies in Asia and Africa.


2. Aggressive nationalism : European nations pursued their national interests very aggressively. They tried to conquer territories in Europe as elsewhere. They created disputes.


3. Militarism : The pursuit of expansion of empire led to expansion of army and Navy and the acquisition of destructive weapons. The mutual distrust and suspicion led to the race for armaments among the European nations.

4. Diplomatic Groupism : Bismarck practiced diplomatic groupism to isolate France. This led to the formation of the Triple Alliance by Germany, Austria and Italy in 1882. The counter-alliance consisting of England, France and Russia emerged I'm 1907.

In these ways imperialism led to World War.

Answer 2

Imperialism and imperial rivalry provided both a cause and context for World War I. Imperialism is a system where a powerful nation controls and exploits one or more colonies. In most cases the imperial nation, euphemistically referred to as the ‘mother country’, establishes control over its colonies by coercion – for example, through infiltration and annexation, political pressure, war and military conquest. Once conquered, this territory is claimed as a colony. Colonies are governed and administered by either the imperial nation, a puppet government or local collaborators. A military presence is often stationed in the colony, to maintain order, to suppress dissent and uprisings, and to deter imperial rivals. Colonies may have military or geopolitical advantages but their main purpose is economic: they exist chiefly to profit and enrich the imperial power. In most cases this involves the supply of precious metals or other resources, such as timber, rubber, rice or other foodstuffs. Colonies can also be invaluable sources of cheap labour, agricultural land and trading ports.
