US Joins WWI Apr US declared war on Germany Getting the Troops Ready (4 steps) 1.Conscription (Draft) 2.Armed 3.Training 4.Shipped to Europe

Russia Surrenders (Dec. 1917) Russian army suffered millions of casualties Many unhappy with the war (in Russia) Blamed the Tsar (Nicholas II) for losses –Civilians resisted the Russian gov’t –Soldiers resisted fighting Became the Bolshevik Revolution –Bolsheviks = the extreme Communist party that takes control of Russia in 1917 Vladimir Lenin became new communist leader (Soviet Union) Soviet gov’t surrendered to Germany (Treaty of Brest-Litovsk) –German troops can now focus on France

US Impact Trench warfare had stopped Germany in the West (GB + French) But with Russia now gone in the East, Germany could focus on winning in the West U.S. had a large impact on the war by… 1. Adding numbers to Allied forces 2. Increased war supplies
