Before 1914, Europe had not faced a notable war for one hundred years, much less one of comparable magnitude. As war-barren as Europe’s landscape was prior to the First World War, it was equally war-plagued in the following century, with each politically significant event linked, at least indirectly to the Great War. The American Great Depression, the rise of Mussolini in Italy and Hitler in Germany, who fed off of their countries’ losses in the war and used them as their political platform, the crisis of liberalism, the popularity of appeasement politics, the economic turmoil in Germany, and the eventual outbreak of the Second World War, accompanied by the Holocaust, can all by attributed to the Great War. While those…

III, and I had absolutely no idea what they were talking about, making it slightly hard to follow. I found out that the Huguenot Wars is the name for the fighting that occurred between 1562 and 1598 between Catholics and Protestants, or Huguenots. Catherine de’ Medici showed compassion towards the Huguenots, as they were growing in numbers in her kingdom, but this angered the Catholic Guises. Their supporters attacked a protestant congregation at Vassy, angering the provinces. This massacre was…

They both caused conflict in the government and tension between common people, but France did not fall after a new religion was introduced, and Rome did. I viewed the Guises as similar to the Roman Officials who persecuted Christians, basically just big bullies.

These similarities allowed me…
