World War III

can set into motion a chain of events that will eventually create a world war; such is the case of the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria causing World War I. Or, in another scenario, a life being spared in that world war can eventually lead to another world war; in this case, a wounded Adolf Hitler was spared by a british soldier in World War I, and later became the fascist dictator of Germany and started World War II. However distant they are, these types of relationships…

The negotiation of the treaty was gradual and always in secret. The ultimate goal was to push the person in charge to act in a limited way and with maximum creativity to bring more stability and peace in the world. These two diplomatic offensives, conducted in secret and in accordance with the ideas of the two leaders of the US foreign policy have showed the Kissinger diplomats qualities, a great practitioner of secret diplomacy via the back channels and especially…

nineteenth century, Tsar Nicholas II of Russia reluctantly took command of an empire overflowing with revolutionaries seeking change in response to hardships. His shy personality, coupled with his lack of political education, made him unfit to handle the war-torn chaos that would soon darken Russian skies. Nicholas’ series of unfortunate, unprepared and uninformed decisions began with his marriage and would ultimately lead to the demise of his imperial family’s three-hundred-year dynastic…

World War III? Tension, stress, fear. Those are just a couple words that describe the current situation the U.S. and North Korea are involved in. North Korea has been launching nuclear missile tests, and the U.S. has had enough of it. President Trump has sent a warship to the Korean peninsula, and the North Koreans took that personal, calling it, "an act of war". Other countries such as South Korea, China, and others are at great risk of being caught in the cross fire between these two. So the…

At the end of the story, Frankie views the world in a different way, because of the experiences she goes through. She no longer sees any dull colors, instead, she has a totally different perspective of her life and the world (Thomason…

The culture of World War I discussed in class was one of honor and duty. Looking at “Dulce et Decorum Est” and “Anthem for Doomed Youth”, one can see vivid descriptions of the horrors of the war as well as a bitter resentment toward the supposed “honor” associated with fighting for one’s country. Understanding the amount of casualties as well as the nature of deaths helped me sympathize with the speakers in the poem. Watching the film My Boy Jack was especially relevant because it introduced me…

Medieval castles were built in the middle ages in europe and the Middle East as a structure to provide protection. Castles shouldn't be confused with the “Palaces” that we are familiar with today, Medieval castles weren't made for comfort although they were great for protection.

The NPT is a landmark international treaty whose objective is to prevent…
