The new technologies in World War II gave a new world view of war and new resources. The most important new technology invented were guns, aircraft carriers and tanks. Some of the new guns created were Bazooka Launched Rockets, M2 Browning Machine Guns, P-51 Mustang. These guns all had different purposes from blowing up tanking to the quick production and reload. Being able to fly in the air was crucial to the ending of the war. Things would be very different if we had these resources back during the time of The War to End All Wars. This ties back to Hawaiʻi and how we can also fly from island to island. We transfer this knowledge over to our island for a better outcome. This connects us from island to island growing our culture. If we were not able to fly it would not be as easy to stay connected. It would take much longer to get back and forth. Flying instead of taking a boat shows modernity from the change in current technology. Proving a revolution of the next generation. The ending of World War II was one of the most iconic moments in history that was ended by the Great Depression. The Great Depression caused a stock-crash in 1929 through the entire 1930. During the Great Depression, greed went up by 33%. The majority of people suffering from the Great Depression were those with money in the first place, also known as the white people. New technology and The Great Depression still is relevant in Hawai’i to this day.
Without a doubt, the Treaty of Versailles was the most important political document of the 20th century. The Treaty of Versailles was the peace treaty that ended World War I. This war went on for four years until it came to an end in 1918. The Big Four were in charge of the negotiations of the treaty which proved Hegemonic over the world . This was the United States, Great Britain, France, and Italy. This treaty’s globalization impacted Germany the most.
Germany’s population and territory was decreased by 10% due to their geography. Germany was forced to take the damage and blame for anything there was to be blamed for. The Big Four wanted to know for a fact that Germany would never be a military threat to any of the other armies around the world. The army of Germany was only allowed 100,000 men and they were put to a halt on their manufacturing in factories changing their new resources and new energy. Germans were upset because they believed the treaty was only dictated to them. Then came the rise of Adolf Hitler which drastically affected the world leading to World War II. With his discrimination of the Jews controlled the world. Which limited their free-thinking. I learned a lot while learning about the war to end all wars, Aka World War I. In this war nationalism played a big role in the reason the war began. Everyone loved their nation and had too much pride to back out. The culture all over the world was shocked and changed due to the amount of dead from the new technology. America had no reason to fight other than the fact that they were being called out to help their allies. The Malthusian Flux had a great impact on the population and new view on resources. This is the belief that population tends to increase at a faster rate than its means of subsistence and that unless it is checked by moral restraint or disaster.
Our Kahiau project is greatly related to The Great War. This war brought lots of new disease and death to the people. Three times the amount of people that died in the war actually died after. The transfer of sickness and depression was real and important. We are also working with sick people in our Kahiau project. The influence we have on these children is a direct impact of how well we can help wellness in the world. If America was ruled by capitalism there would not be the same amount of resources for the sick people that there are to help. |
