World war is the first biggest War happen during 1914. It was a very deadly war between european countries.It was germany,russia,france,great britain,and etc who begin this War.
united states is not really included on that war,although,they only support countries that are not suppose to be destroyed.As the day american had been attack by the opposing countries they've started to join the War.

*Causes of WW1*
Many ways have cause the WW1 to be worst.

*The first cause of War is the aggression of each leaders controlling each european country.
*The rising of the nationalism of the european nations that causes aggression.
*Economic and imperial competition.
*Fear of War promted military alliances and an arms race.

Well the biggest cause of this war is the strengthening of each countries military power
and made other country to think that thier having a plan on conquering near opposing countries.

*As the result of this War, russia gain more military power and conquered half of germany.

film lesson: "mountain of the moon"

the movie mountain of the moon are all about europeans that explore africa to search for the strange source of the nile river.as i watch this film,there are two explorer and researcher who try to look for its source.it was speak and one other guy.(i forgot).hmm..well..ive learn that it wasnt easy exploring africa before,becuase of its settings,people who live there,and some dangerous creature who lives there just like lions and etc.as this two guys made an expidition searching for the source of nile river,they both put there selves in critical conditions and almost died.africans other tribes are rare and dangerous,because they are NOT used to see other raises like whites and brown etc. ive notice that all people lives in africa are skinny.because i think they dont have enough food to make their body healthy.africa in the past few years or decades are too poor to buy stuff for themselves and no government to organized them,so everytime other raises went there,they only ask for money or stuff for them and they'll work.the things that u gave to them are like a paycheck for them. i was amazed by the geographic settings in africa.they have cool mountains and wierd creatures,and unique people lives thier. it was really hard to stay there without experience or tour guide of your own. this movie really teach me a lot and give me spiritual thinkin about who and what really happens in africa during this era.

meiji restoration in japan

An archipelago is a group of many islands in a large body of water. An example of an archipelago would be Japan. Japan thought their race was superior to all other races, so they practiced isolationism. Since they practiced isolationism, Japan was not very advanced in technology. They had no contact with the outside world and were not aware of the great technological advances that were occurring all around them because of the industrial revolution. In 1853, the U.S. sent a fleet of ships under the command of Mathew Perry to Japan in order to end the nation’s self-imposed isolation and open it to trade.

The Meji Restoration was the movement that occurred in 1868, when Emperor Mutsushito decided that in order to withstand the imerialistic might of the West, Japan would need to adopt western ways. Mathew Perry "bullied" the Japanese into signing a trade treaty through a display of military might.When Perry dropped an anchor 26 miles off the coast of Tokyo, capital of Japan, the Japanese were amazed by the movement of ships with no sails.Perry intentionally arrived in port with sails down to intimidate the Japanese with their technological progress.The impressive naval force that Perry brought to Japan was obviously superior to any Japanese warships, this left the Japanese with few options other than to sign the trade treaty. On March 31, 1854 a treaty was signed between the United States and Japan that opened two ports to the United States.

During the Meji Era, the Japanese economy changed. The impact of foreign intervention was tremendous and sent the Japanese economy into a downward spiral. Since they were not a part of the industrial revolution, the Japanese economy had established itself on the production of labor intensive goods. By eliminating tariffs on foreign goods, the United States and the European countries were able to import comparable goods, produced on a large scale, and undersell the local Japanese producers. The resulted in all the small producers being undersold at the market, and often forced into bankruptcy. An unfavorable trade balance was established for the Japanese and their economy was in need of help.

After a while Japanese became better with trading because of the United States. They stopped being isolated and traded with other countries all over the world. The way they modernized was by establishing a parliament and made a system of transportation and communication.

karl max and communism

Karl Marx, with the help of fellow economists Engel and Hegal, sparked a whole new idea for economics. He was born in Germany and wanted to become educated. Unfortunately, he was kicked out the countries he tried to learn at, including his own, for being a political radical. Ironically, he found freedom to learn and write in the central location of everything he was against, England.

Communism is the idea of everybody being equal. Social classes were now all the same and everybody was paid the same amount of money. The government controlled its people. Even thought Marks ideas were so strong and many people believed and supported it many communist countries didn’t use his ideas. Mark believed that workers would take over landowners and there government. He believed that factory workers could start a revolution and take over the factory owners since they had a higher amount of population.
