Some historians define the Treaty of Sèvres has the same financial consequence as the Treaty of Versailles.

Role and status of women in 20th century war
During the war, the women stay in home, not fighting directly but fighting. The women enter in the society and start to work for men, while the men were inside the war, the women allowed this will be possible because the people that stay and work were they. After the war, when the men comeback of the war, they want back their jobs and other things that women did during the war.
In Great Britain for examples, after the war the women start to wish would have the same right that men, so they start to make this possible. With the time, they start to vote and getting jobs inside the cabinet minister.
In United States, around 1919 appears the first police woman, after that the women start to get jobs as lawyers, vets and civil servants. In 1917 the Women's Royal Naval Service was formed.
After the war, the role of women changed totally, now the women take an important role inside the society showing that women and men were the
Military conflicts often produce unanticipated social transformations. The case of the American Revolutionary War is no exception. The war had awakened a new class consciousness through the struggle over who would rule and who would fight. Slaves and Indians began to see their way of life change by the outcome of the war and women began to expand their role within the home. But, not all things changed for these groups.
“Before the Civil War, laws and traditions restricted women’s choices.” In the passage “Breaking Tradition” by Kathleen Ernst women’s restrictions during the Civil War time are addressed through many ways of telling what they wore and relation back to their jobs, and how they began to protest these ways. Though their rights were restricted, the author was very effective with backing up how the Civil War changed the way women and their rights. In the very beginning of the passage Kathleen Ernst tells how the women in the time of the war had restricted lives and were treated unfairly.
Women contributions to the workforce rose from 24% in 1914 to 37% in 1918. Women had to take over all of the men’s jobs, the physical and financial burden of caring for families. These jobs included farming, deliveries, weaponry work, printing, teaching and shop assistants. The years during the war 1914-1918 were extremely busy and stressful for both the women and the children. Women’s organisations became very active during the time of the war.
It was a brutal war, but it also signifies a new era for our Country. Thanks to World War II it created positive impacts on America, by allowing opportunity for our women, our economy, and our rationing. Since the beginning of time women have been oppressed by the restrictions society has posed. Until a real breakthrough was made during ww2 which allowed women an opportunity to prove ourselves. In Document #6 Adele Erenburg shares her story with us.
These countries heavily relied on the U.S. to lend them money so they could pay back debts from the war. Later in the depression countries were unable to payback their debts due to the growth of protectionism and international trade decreasing. For example, Britain and France were in need of german reparations to pay off their own debts, but Germany was unable to meet this demand because their own economy was already falling to pieces. Because of Germany's inability to make the reparation payments, it affected other countries.
First, the men joined the military. Thirty-eight percent were volunteers and sixty-one were drafted. (BY THE NUMBERS: THE US MILITARY). Since the men where away at war, women were allowed to move into the job field. Although, many people objected and thought that they should on be at home with the children.
With most of the men at war women had to fill their shoes at home. They took factory and industrial jobs. Women took a giant leap and tackled the work force. Society called these jobs war jobs. This let women know that when the men returned home from war that the men would return to their jobs and the women would have to go back to being the homemaker.
(Purpose Doc 1) The excerpts from the English translation of the Triple Alliance details the agreement between Italy, Germany and Austria-Hungary to protect each other in the event of an attack from another country. This again shows how various countries were allying with each other in preparation for war. In doing so, they made World War I much larger than it truly needed to be. (Doc 3)
The Effect of Women on the Outcome of World War Two World War II effected women tremendously by taking them out of their comfort zones and chucking them into the work force and pushing them to do most of the work men normally would have been doing. The war also effected women by providing opportunities for them to serve in non-traditional roles; in fact, some of them enlisted into the military to serve the United States. The way the war effected women is that they had to take care of family in addition to performing work normally done by men. It was difficult to find people to watch after kids which made life during this time very difficult. After the end of World War II society in general was effected considering the baby boom.
Men were always the workers within the family, the ones that were expected to provide for their families. When they went to war, their role within community life needed to be filled. That is when their wives, daughters, and sisters stepped up and took over. “In addition to caring for their families, [women] were left to supervise businesses and farms while the men were away fighting” (Senker). Women were already cooking, cleaning, and caring for their children, but still made time to work and provide as a father figure every single day.
The Australian Women’s Role Post-World War One The role of women changed dramatically due to World War One (WW1). The reason for this is that whilst the men were at war fighting for Australia, the women took their place and kept things running smoothly, therefore calling attention to each woman's capability to accomplish more than being a housewife. Throughout the following exploration, the drastic change brought to the role of women in contemporary society as the result of WW1. This change occurred due to a variety of causes. Firstly, society began to realise women could do what men could do just as well.
American Women during World War 2 had many responsibilities at war, work, and home. But they did not have many equal rights compared to the rest of the society. The women’s rights and responsibilities topic is very interesting. One is understanding and knowing the history about the responsibilities women had to do and how hard working they were. This topic is very important because there was a big change in women’s rights and responsibilities during World War 2.
Before WWI, women were restricted to traditionally feminine jobs. Their work was considered inferior and they were paid less than men. However, once WWI began, women were able to integrate themselves into a variety of different workforces. Since most men were off to serve in the military and navy, women that stayed behind replaced their positions in factories and other industries. Other women worked closely with the military as nurses or even soldiers.
WWI (1914-1918) was a disastrous conflict between two sides - the Allied Powers and the Central Powers. It resulted in the victory of the Allies. There were plenty of Central Powers weaknesses, the Schlieffen plan, weak allies of Germany and their hard economic situation at the end of the WWI. However, it was not only due to these weaknesses, Allied Powers had a few strengths, that made them won. The most important of these are : greater army, control of the sea and support of the USA since 1917, while Germany was already running out of supplies and soldiers.
In WWI, the emotions towards science and technology were mixed, where there were both positive and negative attitudes. There were some people who were hesitant to use certain advanced or new technologies, because it didn’t flow with their values (old military leaders/aristocrats who had fought previous battles). While there were others, who enjoyed the news ways of fighting, yet their voices were masked by their leaders (certain soldiers). Essentially the quote, “WWI was a 20th century war fought with 19th century tactics” says a lot about the state of science and technology during WWI. Despite the innovations of new technologies, the military leaders were not using these technologies in the most efficient ways.
