    DBQ 19

    In 1939 the world was plunged into World War II because of the Munich Agreement. The Munich Agreement was an agreement regarding the Sudetenland Crisis between the major powers of Europe after a conference held in Munich in Germany in 1938. The Sudetenland was an important region of Czechoslovakia. The Treaty of Versailles was the peace treaty created as a result of six months of negotiations at the Paris Peace Conference of 1919, which put an official end to World War I between the Allies and Central Powers. The Munich Agreement caused many disagreements between European countries. Collective security was a more effective response to aggression than appeasement because more European countries disagreed than agreed with the decision made during the Munich Conference for various reasons and Germany had many ways of keeping its territories under control.…

    Khufu Dbq

    The ancient pyramids of Khufu were built by slaves. In other words, a slave is an unpaid worker who is forced into labor. The quote from Document A, “Egyptians were compelled into labor” suggests that slaves built the pyramids. The important thing about this is that compelled means forced, so the Egyptians had no choice and were forced to obey the will of Khufu. Another quote from Document A, “for 20 years people wore themselves out” also suggests that slaves built the pyramids. This quote connects to the fact that the Egyptians were split in gangs and were forced to haul 2 ton blocks of stone over long distances. This information is convincing, because not many people would want to work themselves to death, risking their life as well as their…

    1985 DBQ

    From 1781 to 1789 the Articles of Confederation did not provide the U.S. with an effective government because of the weakness of the Articles. The Constitution is stronger and much more effective than the Articles. Under the Articles congress could not collect money, we couldn’t pay our bills, and the government had no good way to stop rebellion. The constitution improved on this in many ways. I don’t think the Articles would be so bad if we did not have to compare them to the much greater Constitution.…

    Between 1875 and 1900, there were organized labor forces popping up left and right, and the purpose of all of them was to improve the common workers position. However, few of these unions managed to bring much of a positive change. At the time, the three most influential labor forces were the Knights of Labor, who fell from power before they could bring much change, the American Federation of Labor, who didn’t fare any better, and the Populist party, who could be seen as the most successful of the three, though not actually successful.…

    1985 Dbq

    The colonists were living in a brand new country that had no track record. Considering that the articles of confederation had no precedent to follow, and no other government to imitate; the articles were fairly good. However, the Articles of Confederation could have been more effective than they were. Effective does not necessarily mean that the government was strong. It does mean that the government was able to provide the people with the kind of government they wanted and needed. Also, ineffective does not necessarily mean weak. The Articles were deliberately written for a weak central government, the colonists set it up they way they wanted to. Despite the fact that they one the revolutionary war, and they now realized that they were able to work together, they feared that a central government would cause each state to loose the civil rights which they have already gained. Therefore, the colonists deliberately made a weak central government. However, the kind of government which the people set up, through their own will created much uncertainty. The industrious people preferred security and quite and the government held too much uncertainty for them. If there is too much uncertainty, then they will agree to anything that will give them the security that they want. (Document G)…

This would be the case for what the World considers the Scramble for Africa. According to the documents given, European powers gave the illusion of choice to the people and then backed that up with bullets when they resisted.

    It was the best of times. It was the worst of times. This Charles Dickens quote perfectly encapsulates all that was the inspiring, yet politically charged year of 1968. The revolution that occurred was not strictly political, however, and young college students strived to make social statements with “sex, drugs, and rock and roll”. The assassinations of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Senator Kennedy also occurred in the same bittersweet year, as well as widespread riots leading to violent takeovers of college campuses, the 1968 Democratic Convention riot, outbursts by the Black Panthers, including a black power salute at the 1968 Olympic games that got the champions disqualified, anti-war protests, and Yippies. Overall, 1968 was a critical turning point in youth movements, political regimes, black civil rights, and the Vietnam War.…

    Manchester DBQ

    When Manchester first built its big mechanized cotton machine, it became the leading textile manufacturing city in the whole world. Much of its population in 1850s was made up with the working class and immigrants from parts of Britain and even Europe. In 1851, it was granted a royal charter after Queen Victoria's visit. The Reform Bill granted Manchester representation in parliament and middle-classmen the right to vote. All this was due to the exponential growth of Manchester during the Industrial Revolution. According to the Encarta World English Dictionary, Industrial Revolution was the period when U.K. went through social and economic changes that involved widespread adoption of industrial methods of production. The specialization of tasks, the concentration of capital, and the centralization of work forces were important aspects of these changes. The major factor in the growth of Manchester was the Industrial Revolution. As a result, many issues were raised and there were many reactions to it. Some of the main consequences of the growth were: increase in pollution/degraded living conditions, atrocious working environment, and repulsive appearance of the whole city.…
