Archduke Assassination
The archduke was killed after one assassin tried to blow him up. After that mishap the archduke came back to the place where he was later killed with his wife by another assassin. This then caused Austria to declare war on Serbia causing world war 1 to happen. I'd say this goes with the political inspect theme because the murder of the archduke was pretty political and because war broke out after it. -
Armenian Genocide
This event wasnthe systematic killing of Armenians.This was carried out because the Turks thought that what was happening with Germany they would try to take over their territory with the help of the Armenians. When the genocide finally came to an end about 600,000 to 1.5 million Armenians were dead. This event really goes with the culture inspect theme because the reason the turks thought that the Armenians would get along with the germans is because they both practice christianity. -
Zimmerman Telegram
The Zimmermann Telegram was sent by the Germans intended to go to Mexico. But it was actually sent to the British where they uncoded the message. And sent that to the U.S where they read it and that led them to get into world war 1. I'd say this event goes along with the Technology inspect theme because back then the telegram was really the only way for countries to communicate and it was faster than a letter. -
Treaty of Versailles
The treaty of versailles was signed in Paris at the end of world war 1. Acting as a treaty between the countries that were involved with the war. The treaty held Germany for starting the war and imposed them to harsh penalties including loss of territory. This event screams the Social inspect theme because the treaty of versailles was signed by the countries presidents that were in the war and probably other people that had power. -
Russian Revolution
January 21, 1924 Lenin died which led his successor Trotsky and his other one he didn't think would fit very much Stalin. To fight for power and in the end Stalin won because of his manipulating abilities and he also had Trotsky killed. And with him out of the way Stalin could consolidate power in Russia and changed Russia for the worse. -
Stock Market Crash
Before this event the stock market in U.S was thriving but that came to an end in October of 1929 when it crashed. This then caused the U.S to go into a "Great Depression" of the 1930's. And unemployment rates went up and a lot of workers lost their jobs. This goes with the economic inspect theme because this whole event is caused because the U.S didn't have a lot of money so they couldn't give it out to people and so people couldn't get money. -
Pearl Harbor Attack
The first Japanese dive-bomber appeared over Pearl Harbor at 7:55 am. It was part of the first wave of nearly 200 aircrafts. At 8:50 the second wave of the attack began. And more than 2,300 Americans were killed that day. -
Normandy Invasion
The normandy invasion or D-day was launched June 6, 1944. It came to be known as the largest invasion force in human history. The United States and the British commonwealth along with other allies were present in the invasion. -
Hiroshima Bombing
In 1945 an American bomber dropped an atomic bomb over the Japanese city of Hiroshima. The explosion killed an estimate of 80,000 people and many would die later because of radiation exposure. After that America dropped another bomb on the city Nagasaki which then led Japan's emperor to announce his country's unconditional surrender. This event really goes with the inspect theme interactions with the environment because the atomic bombs spread radiation poisoning and killed more people. -
Continuities
The continuities of each period are how people with power went and did things. Like if someone had someone in their way they would just kill them. And also they would change so many things to appease themselves and don't think of other people's needs. Also how many of the people involved got the short end of the stick and so not everyone was happy. -
Changes
The changes of each event period are how groups went about killing other people. Like how with the archduke assassination and the Russian revolution the group involved had someone else kill the person that was in their way while others didn't. And also how people in power changed their nation because some changed it on how they like it while others changed it for the people living there.The differences between each event isn't really that big but it's really noticeable because of their beliefs.
