2. What do you hope to learn about these wars?
World War One
World War Two
I would like to learn about Kaiser Wilhelm II, and his contributions to the war. How did Hitler accomplish many of his goals? How did he win people over?
3. How/Why are these wars important today? How do they impact and/or inform our world today? hint: think about alliances, democracies around the world, cultures, international institutions, nuclear (and other) technologies, etc.
World War One started of by a simple reason, some may argue very immature and stupid event. The assassination of Franz Ferdinand. Yet at that time people thought that was an important event, and indeed it is. Today we are fighting two wars. I believe it is useless and for reasons that are non important. many think it is important.
