Allied Powers


In world War 1 there were three main Allied powers that intered the War in 1914. These countries were: France, Russia, and The United Kingdom. The reason they intered the war was because of the fact that they all had a Triple Entente allience. This is why the allied powers were also considered the Entente powers. Other countributers to the allies were: Canada, Italy, Australia, Japan, and the United States of America. There were many other countries that decided to join the war lateer and some countries even declared war without even having a military to back their actions up. The reason why the United States entered the war was because they stated that "Germany violated American neutrality by attacking international shipping". All in all the allies had around 42,243,214 mobilized troops and about 18,000,000 casualties. That menas that they had around 44% of their troops that were also casualties.
