Ottoman Dynasty

This war happened because of several different events that took place in 1914 or around that time. It was a conflict between the Allies(France, Britain, Russia and later on the United States) and the Central Powers(Germany, Austria-Hungary and Italy).

Another cause I am going to cover is militarism because of course they had to deal with this during the war. The last cause I will talk about is…

As Davide Rodogno writes at the beginning of chapter one, the chapter's focus was on "international context of the Nineteenth-Century humanitarian interventions" (pg.18); specifically that which took place in the Ottoman Empire. As well as focusing on the Ottoman Christians, who were "victims of massacre, atrocities, and extermination" (pg.18). One part of Chapter one that interested me was the section dedicated to "Massacre, Atrocity, and Extermination"(pg.31); Rodogno briefly explains the…

War, chaos, destruction, ruin; these are things the world knew all too well for four straight years. Over nine million troops and soldiers sacrificed their lives and over five million innocent civilians died. Roughly $186 billion was spent in direct costs and an additional $151 billion was spent indirectly. War destroyed national relations, demolished economies, took lives, and tore our world apart, but why? Was it because the world wanted it, or they thought it would be fun? Not at all; so why…

Good morning fellow classmates, today I will be talking about two views on the theme of death. The first poem called ‘Asleep’ by Wilfred Owen and the second called ‘The charge of the light brigade’ by Alfred Lord Tennyson. I chose the theme of death because it can be quite interesting and everyone has their own opinion of it, which is exactly what these two great poets have shown. The poem Asleep was written by Wilfred Owen in the year 1917 after the recent ending of the Edwardian period. The…

It was at the time a new and power source of tension in Europe and was tied to militarism and clashed with the interest of emperor powers in Europe.
