Semester DOS, Blog #14

Welcome back from One World Week, Spring Break, and Ampersand craziness. Now it's time for some good old history.

Answer each of the following, and cite statistics or sources wherever appropriate:

1. What are the most interesting aspects of World Wars 1 and 2?

2. What do you hope to learn about these wars?

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.

This blog is due at 11:59:59pm on Tuesday 4/20.


1. To me the most interesting aspects of World Wars 1 and 2 are the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, and the entire Nazi Germany Campaign.

2. I already know quite a bit, I hope to revisit everything I have previously learned and maybe learn some new information or insight.

3.The technological and medical advances that came from Nazi Germany during World War 2 are astonishing. The ways we found these out are quite surprising and disturbing at times but they are indeed amazing. We would not have such medical advances without it.
