IbTrojan Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 Very interesting choice of a propaganda poster to put up. May I ask why you chose this specific one? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinkingShip Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 I chose that specific one because of what my profile is about. My profile is that of the Lusitania which was sunk so I decided to base my first piece of propaganda on that of the anti U-boat. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SinkingShip Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 I feel I did no wrong carrying those passengers. You have no proof there were any weapons on board, NO PROOF!! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
King112 Posted March 9, 2015 Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 well, in technicality, Military ships, even if they are carrying weapons, are allowed to take civillians, if they are in a hazardous scenario. It can be argued that the civillians were in that scenario?kind of hard to pin point, because:a) it was like nearly 100 years agob) History is written by the victor, and we weren't there Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Master Debater Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 So I understand it was called the Great War until WWII, but I feel like someone has to ask why it was considered a World War? I see France, England, Germany, Italy, Prussia and Russia involved in the war, so what about the other 200 countries in the World? Yes, I know the answer is obvious to those who have studied history long enough; I haven't. Answers? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
King112 Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Well, every country was indirectly involved. For example, japan played a very small role on the Allied side, and Romania was on the side of the Axis powers. Plus, some countries were merged, but not majorly, just throwing a fun fact in. Also, 99% of the rest of the world had become colonies of Europe, for example, India, Africa, and other things. So they had to produce weapons, and provide resources. so they were involved.Now, I don't know if EVERY country was involved, (must be some small country that is hidden somewhere that wasnt. Got it, one country that was NOT involved was Switzerland, but that's the only country i think of), but most were, maybe not as soldiers (though a lot were, drafts from colonies and countries), and hence the term World War Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IbTrojan Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Also, even if some countries were not involved, EVERYONE was affected by it either directly or indirectly. And it could be small things or major things affecting day-to-day life. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
