?
During the 1920s while Hitler was imprisoned, he determined to pursue legal means to gain power through democracy and elections rather than force. The Nazis used this time to organize, develop polished rallies and propaganda, and spread their message of German strength and blaming Jews and Communists for Germany's problems. This preparation positioned them to capitalize on the economic difficulties of the early 1930s and rapidly increase their support.Review causes WWII

World War I began in 1914 due to rising nationalism, imperialism, and militarism in Europe that led to the formation of opposing alliances. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand triggered Austria-Hungary's declaration of war on Serbia and aligned countries. The U.S. remained neutral until 1917 when Germany resumed unrestricted submarine warfare and tried to enlist Mexico as an ally against America. The U.S. joined the Allies in April 1917 and helped turn the tide of the war.

By early 1918, Russia had withdrawn from World War I due to internal revolution and the new Bolshevik government signing the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. With Russia out of the war, Germany was able to focus its forces on the Western Front, advancing to within 40 miles of Paris by May 1918. However, the Allied powers, bolstered by fresh American troops, halted the German advance. Germany's allies then began withdrawing from the war, and unrest among German troops led Germany to sign an armistice on November 11, 1918, ending the war.Treaty of versailles student booklet

The conflict involved major powers grouped into the Allies and Central Powers, with significant loss of life and the introduction of modern weaponry, including tanks and poison gas. The war ended with the Treaty of Versailles, which imposed harsh penalties on Germany while also attempting to establish a League of Nations, though it ultimately created political instability in Europe.Victory And Peace

After the Russian Revolution and Lenin taking power, Russia withdrew from World War 1 through the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk in March 1918. This allowed Germany to focus on the Western Front, but they were weakened and pushed back by July 1918 with help from fresh American troops. Germany's allies then began to surrender, and revolutions in Germany and Austria-Hungary ended their war efforts. An armistice on November 11, 1918 ended the fighting, but peace negotiations at Versailles lasted until 1919 and were contentious, with Clemenceau wanting harsh terms for Germany and Wilson wanting a lasting peace. The resulting Treaty punished Germany severely and redrew borders in Europe.His 122 ch 24 america and the great war fall 2013

Wilson had no foreign policy experience but sought to "spread democracy around the world" through idealistic diplomacy. This led to interventions in Mexico following incidents there. At the same time, European alliances had formed that pulled nations into World War I following the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. Germany declared war on Russia and France, invading Belgium which drew Britain into the war. The conflict quickly resulted in trench warfare and a stalemate on the Western Front.

The document summarizes the complex history surrounding the 1967 referendum and the establishment of the Aboriginal Tent Embassy in 1972 in Australia. It discusses how the referendum was initially seen as a moment of reconciliation but ignored ongoing issues of land rights and self-determination, leading to increased activism. This came to a head with the Tent Embassy, which demanded land rights and sovereignty and was seen as radical by many but as a moral victory by others, putting Indigenous rights on the political agenda.

Culture, the arts, and national identity in 19th century Australia were strongly influenced by bush imagery in art and literature. Henry Lawson was one of the first Australian-born writers to look at Australia with "Australian eyes" and give voice to interpretations of an "Australian" character through his depictions of bush life and hardship in stories and poems. Other influential artists and writers who contributed to developing a sense of national identity included the painters Arthur Streeton and Tom Roberts, and the poet Banjo Paterson, known for his ballads celebrating the Australian bush tradition and bushmen. The Bulletin magazine also played a role in promoting Australian nationalism through its writing.

In the late 19th century, Australians debated who could belong to the new nation. There was a push to create a "white Australia" by excluding Indigenous Australians from citizenship and expelling non-Europeans. Australians also discussed the roles of male and female citizens. By the early 1900s, the idea of being Australian came to mean having a white British background. Many groups such as Indigenous people, unskilled workers, and non-European immigrants were denied full benefits of citizenship in the new nation.Victoria's golden vision

The Victorian Gold Discovery Committee wrote in 1854 that the discovery of gold in Victoria in 1851 had transformed the remote colony into a country of worldwide fame and immense wealth. It attracted a huge influx of population that vastly increased Melbourne's size and development, though initially the city's infrastructure could not cope with the crowds. The gold rush profoundly impacted Victoria's society, economy, politics and culture, spurring industrialization and making Melbourne one of the richest cities in the world by the 1850s despite early struggles with disease and overcrowding.Aborigines and settlers in port phillip

In 1921, Lenin replaced it with the New Economic Policy (NEP) which took a more capitalist approach and allowed private enterprise and market forces to spur economic growth, while maintaining state control over key industries. However, the NEP did not fully solve Russia's economic problems following the devastation of World War I and the civil war.The cold war (the end)

Gorbachev's reforms of perestroika and glasnost weakened the Soviet Union in the 1980s. This led to the fall of communist governments across Eastern Europe in 1989, culminating in the destruction of the Berlin Wall. In 1991, conservative Soviet leaders launched a coup against Gorbachev but failed due to opposition led by Yeltsin. This led to the dissolution of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War.Week 3 breaking with the past

This document summarizes major events in Russia between 1914 and 1917, including World War I, the February Revolution, and the rise of political instability. It discusses Russia's initial unity at the start of WWI, followed by military setbacks against Germany. The Brusilov Offensive provided a rare victory but heavy losses continued. The February Revolution led to the abdication of the Tsar and establishment of a Provisional Government. Kerensky's June Offensive was a disaster, weakening the army. The July Days saw the Bolsheviks unsuccessfully attempt to seize power from the Provisional Government. Communication breakdowns then led to the Kornilov Affair, increasing political turmoil inThe korean war

The Korean War began in 1950 when North Korean forces invaded South Korea, marking the first major military action of the Cold War. The Soviet Union supported North Korea and its communist dictator Kim Il-sung, while the United States backed the capitalist South Korean dictator Syngman Rhee. Fierce fighting erupted along the 38th parallel border between North and South Korea. Over 1.3 million soldiers and 3 million civilians were killed during the three-year war before a ceasefire was agreed upon in 1953, leaving the two Koreas still divided along the original border.Week 2 crisis and response p 2

This document summarizes political groups and events in Russia between 1905 and 1914. It highlights reformist groups like the Populists and Socialist-Revolutionaries, and revolutionary groups like the Bolsheviks and Mensheviks. It also discusses the establishment of the Duma as an advisory body to the Tsar with limited power. However, the Tsar maintained autocratic rule and progressively limited the voting rights that determined Duma membership. As a result, the Duma had little influence and was dissolved several times when it challenged the Tsar or his policies.Intro russiarev

Widespread discontent grew among the Russian people due to the oppressive rule of Tsar Nicholas II. The Tsar ruled as an autocrat with absolute power and little regard for democratic reforms. Living conditions were poor for the growing working class and peasants, with overcrowding in cities and harsh working conditions on farms. Marxist ideologies and ideas of revolution spread despite government censorship. Tensions mounted and led to the 1905 revolution as power was weakly organized at the local level, allowing for abuse. By 1917, years of oppression, poverty, and World War I led the Russian people to overthrow the Tsar in the February Revolution, removing him from power and ending over 300 years of Romanov rule.Week9 examdebrief rrevs

This document provides a debrief of a practice exam on the French and Russian Revolutions. It notes that students were required to answer all questions in either Section A on the French Revolution or Section B on the Russian Revolution. Most students chose Section A. It reminds students that the end of year exam will cover both revolutions. The document lists some comments exam assessors had about student answers in the 2011 exam, including writing about specific events and figures rather than general topics. It advises keeping French Revolution resources handy as practice questions will cover that revolution throughout studying the Russian Revolution. Students will have to answer double the questions in the end of year exam but with an extra 30 minutes to write.Creating a New Society - French Revolution

The document summarizes the key events and reforms of the early French Revolution from 1789 to 1791. It discusses the challenges faced in creating a new post-revolutionary society and analyzes the nature of the society created. Some of the major reforms included abolishing feudal privileges and dues, declaring equal rights and liberties for all citizens, simplifying the legal system, establishing a democratic national assembly, and passing economic reforms like the Le Chapelier Law which banned trade unions. However, the revolution did not fully achieve the aims of peasants as many feudal taxes remained, and tensions continued over the extent to which the old order had been overthrown.VITtpresentation

This document summarizes Esther Holt's action inquiry project during her time as a student teacher. She focused on improving her teaching of a Religion and Human Rights class between weeks 5-10 of term 3. Her goals were to use clear expectations, encourage discussion, and ask higher-order thinking questions to improve student engagement and learning outcomes. She found that setting timers and limits helped pacing, while questioning techniques needed more work. Student evidence and surveys showed her inquiry was successful overall, though she still has areas for future growth, such as continuing to develop higher-order questions and checking understanding.Ad
