- political and economic factors in WWI.
- The period of 1914-1945 marked a span of two World Wars and saw a significant transformation of America from an economic, social and global power perspective. A series of competing political and economic factors led to the start of World War I in Europe. The U.S. had tried to stay out of the conflict, but once dragged in, as the country that swung the balance of power in favor of the Allies, had a large role in the “peace” settlement. The idealistic outcomes Woodrow Wilson proposed from the end of World War I and the lack of controls on the U.S. economy that led to the stock market crash, were all tributary to the factors that led to the Second World War.
