Forum Post #7 - World War II

4/8/2015

0 Comments

 
Listen to the three speeches below. One is by Adolf Hitler (German leader), one by Joseph Stalin (Soviet Leader), and the last by Winston Churchill (British PM). As a comment rank them 1-3 by content, and then rank them 1-3 by general speech abilities (who is the best speaker). So that means you'll have two sets of rankings. For each one write a brief 3-4 sentence explanation for why you ranked them like you did.

Forum Post #6 - Casualties of the 'Great War'

3/9/2015

0 Comments

 
Choose one of the countries below (must be a European country and  can NOT do the same country as somebody else) and explain the following things:
     - What things factored in to the number of Soldiers killed, wounded, or captured for your country
          + Take into consideration did they win or lose the war
          + How might the geographical area they were fighting in have contributed to their casualty country. 
          + Who were they fighting (ex. an industrialized nation or highly nationalistic nation) and how might that have caused                         more of less casualties.
     - What does their "Casualties as % of Forces" tell us about this countries fighting capabilities, training, and technological             development of that country's armed forces?
     - Compare your country to the most modern (most Industrialized and Liberalized) country in the world (The United States)            and come up with a possible explanation for why your country's statistics (especially Casualties as % of Forces) are                  higher or lower.
