The War to End All Wars” itself never really ended.

World War I lives on today in the conflicts disrupting the Middle East and Europe, the experiments still seen in art and literature and even America’s place in the world order. A little more than a decade into a century that started with optimism that large social and economic problems could be resolved, the war definitively shattered those dreams.

November 11 marks the 100th anniversary of the armistice that ended the fighting, and at Duke, the Great War and the decisions made in its aftermath are still the subject of research and teaching. There were five European empires at the start of the war - in Turkey, England, Germany, Russia and Austria-Hungary; at war’s end, only King George of Great Britain retained the throne. The war called into question principles of history, economics and political science and prompted scholars to re-think fundamental concepts in their disciplines.

For more than 140 years, the United States had focused its foreign interests within its own hemisphere, so when World War I thrust the country into a leadership position on the world stage, it was a significant change and somewhat unexpected. It was also extremely brief – lasting just till the end of the Wilson Administration in 1921, but the lessons learned from the experience would shape the country’s rise as a world power two decades later.

Political scientist Peter Feaver teaches the conflict as “a harbinger of what would become the US role in international affairs.”

When 200,000 black soldiers went to Europe with the American Expeditionary Forces to fight for democracy in World War I, they left behind a country where Jim Crow restricted their own rights at every turn. Historian Adriane Lentz-Smith said the war made that contradiction conspicuous. The soldiers came back changed by their experiences abroad, and the war became a seminal moment in American civil rights history.

With Adolf Hitler leading a German invasion of Poland in 1939, World War II was launched, a deadly global conflict waged across Europe and the Pacific until 1945. Bloody battles raged between the Allied powers, which included Britain, France, the Soviet Union and the United States, along with other nations, and the Axis, notably Germany and Japan.

World War II's longest continuous campaign takes place, with the Allies striking a naval blockade against Germany and igniting a struggle for control of Atlantic Ocean sea routes. The Axis, with its U-boats, responds with a counter-blockade that is at first successful, but the Allies' use of convoys, aircraft and technology eventually turns the tide. Over five years, thousands of ships engage in 100-plus battles in the Atlantic Ocean with approximately 100,000 lives lost.

Battle of Britain, July 10 to October 31, 1940

After a nearly four-month air campaign waged over England, Britain's Royal Air Force and Navy respond to heavy bombing attacks from Germany's Luftwaffe air force, including “the Blitz,” in an attempt to destroy the RAF before invading. Defense systems, including radar, and Hitler's decision to bomb London, rather than military bases, allows Britain to regroup and eventually win the battle.
