Causes of WW I

What Really Caused World War 1?

History books record that World War I started when the nations went to war to avenge the assassination of the Archduke Francis Ferdinand, the heir to the Habsburg throne, on June 28, 1914.

This is the typical explanation. But the "revisionist historian" knows just what caused and what the purpose was of the conflagration of World War I.

Up until America's entry into this war, the American people had followed the wise advice of President George Washington given in his farewell address, delivered to the nation on September 17, 1796. President Washington said: "It is our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliance with any portion of the foreign world.... Why, by interweaving our destiny with that of any part of Europe, entangle our peace and prosperity in the toils of European ambition, rivalship, interest, humour or caprice?'

d kingdom of great britain and ireland,  was smuggled by merchants from British India  into China in defiance of Chinese prohibition laws.and the British 

empire  after China sought to restrict British opium traffickers. It consisted of the First Opium War First opium War from 1839 to 1842 and the second opium War from 1856 to 1860.

                                                   From the Chinese point-o

f-view, China had the moral high ground in the Opium Wars. The Western foreigners were illegally selling a highly addictive, dangerous drugs to Chinese and breaking the existing laws of the land. Prior to the West started selling opium to Chinese, opium was already illegal in China. The widespread of opium addition was causing illness, death, crimes and mass-scale misery in China. When China tried to enforce their laws, British started a war to protect their drug money. Even though Chinese had the moral high ground, China ended up losing the war.

John Locke and "The Enlightenment"

The rights was that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights.That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it.

he Constitution creates the federal government and grants various powers to the 3 branches of government.
The federal government has gained power over time through precedent - where it has exercised power at the time, and no one has objected or stopped it, so it is free to do so again. In general, the Federal government has the power it does because the people give their power to it. Locke maintained that people are born without innate ideas, and that knowledge is instead determined only by experience derived by sense perception
