The world we live in today is clearly interconnected. The cars we drive, things we use, and the computer you're reading this on was created using parts manufactured all over the world. So it is easy to see why countries would help one another in times of need. Whether it be times of war, economic woes, or natural disaster our world exists through allied partnership.
These partnerships were not always common, however. Prior to the 20th century, one didn't really see a lot of formal alliances. Countries were peaceful with each other, but didn't necessarily jump to each other's aid.
Questions to Consider:
Why do countries agree to help other nations? Or in other words, why do countries become allies? Why did the French becaome America's ally in the American Revolution?
