The 1910s were a pivotal period when movie studios and stars began to reside in Hollywood and when the circumstances of the First World War helped the United States film industry to achieve global market dominance. During the 1910s and early '20s Hollywood surpassed New York as the center of domestic film production and the industry established an integrated system of production, distribution, and exhibition that would spread American culture on an unprecedented scale. As a part of this system, film promotion became vital for expanding the industry as well as shaping peoples' perceptions of cultures and nations around the world.
