The Pledge of Allegiance. The Pledge of Allegiance was written by Francis Bellamy, a Baptist minister and magazine writer for The Youth's Companion. The Pledge was first published in 1892 in The Youth's Companion. It was included in an ad for the Official Programme for the National Columbia Public School Celebration of October 12, 1892, a celebration of the 400 year anniversary of Columbus' discovery of America.
The Sussex Pledge was a promise given by the German Government to the United States of America on May 4th 1916 in response to US demands relating to the conduct of the First World War.t's a huge understatement to say Germany didn't want America to enter the war on the side of her enemies, and the 'breaking off' of diplomatic relations was a step in this direction. Germany thus responded on May 4th with a pledge, named after the steamer Sussex, promising a change in policy.
