Who was the leader of us during ww1?

25
Woodrow Wilson


Likewise, people ask, who was in charge of ww1?

Lloyd George would go on to lead Britain to victory in 1918 and remain PM until 1922. He would be the last Liberal Prime Minister of Britain. Winston Churchill did have a role to play in WW1. When war broke out he was First Lord of The Admiralty.

Furthermore, who led the World War 1? The immediate cause of World War I that made the aforementioned items come into play (alliances, imperialism, militarism, nationalism) was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary. In June 1914, a Serbian-nationalist terrorist group called the Black Hand sent groups to assassinate the Archduke.

Keeping this in view, who was the leader of Japan during ww1?

Hirohito

What killed the most soldiers in ww1?

Killed, wounded, and missing. The casualties suffered by the participants in World War I dwarfed those of previous wars: some 8,500,000 soldiers died as a result of wounds and/or disease. The greatest number of casualties and wounds were inflicted by artillery, followed by small arms, and then by poison gas.

Why did Great Britain join ww1?

How was Britain affected by ww1?

The First World War had a profound impact upon British society. The central agent of change was the British state. In the early stages of the war, its role was largely confined to security issues such as the Defence of the Realm Act, censorship and aliens.

Why did Japan side with Germany?

The true alliance of Japan and Germany would only come about when Japan entered the war. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor and other American bases, it led to America declaring war on the Imperial nation. In response, Germany declared war on America, and thus further strengthened their relationship with Japan.

Why is Japan's flag a red dot?

The Japanese flag is made up of a red circle, symbolizing the sun, against a white background. It is known as the hinomaru in Japanese, meaning "circle of the sun." Because Japan lies at the far West of the Pacific Ocean, the sun rises spectacularly over the sea to the East.
