To get Americans excited to support the war effort by enlisting in the army or participating in programs that would help fund the military, a government agency made a lot of this: posters, films, and books with the theme that fighting and winning this war was important.
propaganda
This is the name of the alliance that won the war.
Allied Powers
This MAIN cause of World War I increased tensions across Europe because nobody wanted to lose the "arms race." Everybody felt they needed to prove that they had the better army with the better weaponry.

This invention is largely why the United Kingdom had such a successful navy.
U-boats/submarines
Peace talks at the end of the war were located in this country.
France
