She went to Madrid, where she tried to woo a German diplomat, who gave her false information. This made the French suspect her of being a double spy for France and Germany, so she was executed by a firing squad in 1917.]]> 2019-02-21 16:25:40 UTC https://padlet.com/kaylee_hill1/9hhx3816obni/wish/333712544 kaylee_hill1 https://padlet.com/kaylee_hill1/9hhx3816obni/wish/333718965 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mata_Hari]]> 2019-02-21 16:35:33 UTC https://padlet.com/kaylee_hill1/9hhx3816obni/wish/333718965 kaylee_hill1 https://padlet.com/kaylee_hill1/9hhx3816obni/wish/334974644 Mata Hari fell deeply in love with Vladimir Massloff, who was a Russian soldier. She agreed to become a spy to earn money so the two could get married. “I will marry my lover,” she wrote, “and I will be the happiest woman on earth.”- Mata Hari]]> 2019-02-25 17:15:54 UTC https://padlet.com/kaylee_hill1/9hhx3816obni/wish/334974644 kaylee_hill1 https://padlet.com/kaylee_hill1/9hhx3816obni/wish/334979413 https://www.nationalgeographic.com/archaeology-and-history/magazine/2017/11-12/mata-hari-history-killing/]]> 2019-02-25 17:23:36 UTC https://padlet.com/kaylee_hill1/9hhx3816obni/wish/334979413 kaylee_hill1 https://padlet.com/kaylee_hill1/9hhx3816obni/wish/335057876 Several films, songs, and books have been made about Mata Hari and her mysterious, inconclusive life as a spy. There is even a room in The Fries Museum in Leeuwarden, Netherlands, that has a room dedicated to Mata Hari. This room includes scrapbooks that have been kept along with a carpet, which has the footsteps from her fan dance. To this day, researchers don't believe there was enough evidence to prove whether she was wrongly convicted to working as a double spy for Germany and France.]]> 2019-02-25 19:33:05 UTC https://padlet.com/kaylee_hill1/9hhx3816obni/wish/335057876 kaylee_hill1 https://padlet.com/kaylee_hill1/9hhx3816obni/wish/335080878 https://youtu.be/VFZyUBfDkeA]]> 2019-02-25 20:15:13 UTC https://padlet.com/kaylee_hill1/9hhx3816obni/wish/335080878 kaylee_hill1 https://padlet.com/kaylee_hill1/9hhx3816obni/wish/335192010 Not only did the volume of spies increase in WWI because of the amount of people fighting, but because of how close some of the countries were and their cultural similarities. The mutual familiarity made spying an effective way to uncover your enemies plans and gain the upper hand. WWI was the first time ordinary objects became a threat in warfare. Spies effectively used objects such as loaves of bread, windmills, or even hair pins to hide and send secret messages. The increasing paranoia led to falsely accusing many civilians as spies. In 1917 over 2,000 "spies" were rounded up and imprisoned or executed in France. Telephone systems were used to send signals and secret messages during the war and many electronic advances were made to interrupt and pick up these signals, such as the Moritz system. This system was used by the Germans to spy on the British. ]]> 2019-02-26 03:02:13 UTC https://padlet.com/kaylee_hill1/9hhx3816obni/wish/335192010 kaylee_hill1 https://padlet.com/kaylee_hill1/9hhx3816obni/wish/335197994 Leopold Vieyra, known as the ‘Spy in the Heart of Filmland’, was a German WW1 spy.
