The Allies in WWI were almost the same Allies in WWII. Here's the Wikipedia entry on the matter:\n\nWorld War I, also known as the First World War, and (before 1939) the Great War, the War of the Nations, and the War to End All Wars, was a world conflict lasting from August 1914 to the final Armistice (cessation of hostilities) on November 11, 1918.The Allied Powers (led by Britain, France, and, later, the United States) defeated the Central Powers (led by Germany, Austria and the Ottoman Empire), and led to the collapse of four empires and a radical change in the map of Europe.

Well, they were on the same side in World War I and II.  France and Britain have often been on the same side - united against a common enemy e.g. Spain.  Sorry, can't help with the American Revolutionary War.

America got involved in World War I because of the sinking of the Lusitania and the Zimmerman telegram. (Germany asked Mexico to attack the US and Germany promised they could have Texas and California back!)

Well, the Allies were many different countries.  You would have to narrow down your question a little bit if you want to know something specific.  As far as some of the Allies go, China, France, England and Russia, as well as many other countries, were fighting to save their homeland.  Many of these countries were actually occupied by one or more of the Axis powers.  England held its own, but Germany was attempting to invade and did its best, but England was too determined to keep them out.  If you ask why the United States was involved in the war, it was partly because we were attacked by the Japanese.  The reason we fought in the European Theater is because the Allied leadership felt it was necessary to defeat the Germans and Italians because they were the more powerful combination in the Axis.  For your actual question, why were they fighting?  The Allies felt that people deserved the right to be free and be able to live the way they wanted as long as they didn't infringe on others right to do the same and the Axis powers wanted to control everyone and force them to live by their rules and according to their beliefs.  That would be why the Allies fought, to stop that from happening.

DJ Noek has it right.  Germany was Japan's ally. We declared war on Japan immediately, so Germany declared war on us.  So then we declared war on Germany.

"Russia, one of the Allied powers during the war, had problems with its supply routes over sea. The Baltic Sea was locked by the German Navy, while the Black Sea's only entrance was through the Bosporus, which was controlled by the Ottoman Empire."\n\n"By late 1914, the Western Front, in France and Belgium, had effectively become fixed. A new front was desperately needed."\n\n"After the failure of the naval attacks, it had become clear that ground troops were necessary to eliminate the Turkish mobile artillery."\n\nThe Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, "The Anzacs were to land north of Gaba Tepe on the Aegean coast from where they could advance across the peninsula and prevent retreat from or reinforcement of Kilitbahir."

actually,  world war 1 began with the assassination of arch duke franz ferdinand of austria hungary.  germany had been itching to start a war with russia and austria hungary had been itching to start a war with serbia - russia and serbia were allies and germany and austria and hungary were allies.\n\nthe austrian/hungarians accused the serbians of plotting to kill the arch duke and attacked serbia.  russia joined the war against austria/hungary and germany joined the war on austria hungary's side.\n\nso at the beginning it was serbia and russia against germany and austria/hungary.\n\nfrance then joined because they were allies with russia and england joined because they thought it was wrong that germany and austria were attacking france through neutral belgium.\n\nthe united states of america joined the war in 1917 because germany was sinking us cargo ships heading for england.\n\nbut russia pulled out of the war in 1917 because of riots in the country and because the socialists took over the government.\n\nso before 1917 it was:  germany and austria/hungary versus:  britain, france, italy, russia and serbia\n\nfrom 1917 to 1918, when the war ended it was: the us, france, england, italy versus: germany and austria-hungary (serbia was defeated early on and knocked out of the war as was the case with russia)\n\nthe war was characterized by TRENCH WARFARE.  after germany had some incredible success at the beginning, both sides dug into long trenches and not much happened until the US entered the war.  by 1917 germany was falling apart economically and the american soldiers were helping to overrun german trenches.  germany surrendered on november 11, 1918.\n\nfor your report you can use this information but also include some major battles.\n\ngood luck.\n\ndan

Bosnia played a major role in the outbreak of WWI. The main causes of WWI were the following: The assassination of archduke Franz Ferdinand, Opposing alliances, nationalism, militarism, and imperialism.\n\nBosnia played a major role as it was a Serbian nationalist group called the Black Hand who murdered the heir to the throne of Austria-Hungary.\n\nIf you want anymore help on WWI, you can email me at skaur1290@yahoo.com.

In World War I, the six major powers were set against each other. At the time, the US was an isolationist (which means that we didn't want to get involved in European affairs) There was a lot of nationalism in the countries, and each country built up their armies. Russia, France, and Britain against Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy. Noone expected it to cause as many causualties as it did, but since each nation was so powerful, it did. The troops were in trenches, (trench warfare) for several years. At the time, they had machine guns, and the only way to advance was to cross the area between the trenches called "No man's land" When they crossed no man's land, they were mowed down with machine guns. So the generals, instead of looking for other methods, chose instead to send more troops, causing more casualties.

G'day A B,\n\nThank you for your question.\n\nThe end of World War I saw the US recognised as a major power for the first time. It became the world's greatest creditor unlike today. It had relatively few casualties with 53,402 battle deaths and 63,114 other deaths in service.\n\nI have attached sources for your reference.\n\nRegards
