When studying 20th century German history‚ we usually tend to focus on the horrific acts committed by the Nazi’s‚ and our opinions on the subject are primarily dictated by internal sentimental reactions to those actions. This easily leads us to group and assume all of of Germany in support of Hitler during that time period. Such a notion becomes extremely problematic if trying to objectively examine individual histories during this time‚ especially pertaining to the average German. I would like to

I do believe that Nationalism was the main cause of the war because it all began from countries trying to get their freedom from the Austria-Hungary Empire. Guarilo Principe shot Francis Ferdinand because he didn’t want to be under their control any longer. Then‚ of course‚ the other countries went to war not only because of the allied agreements but because they did not like the countries they were up against. In this war‚ there were two types of nationalism: there was the type where countries did
