World war I and enterwar period exam

These are the questions to be focused on to prepare the exam. Remember that the infography will be the 30% of the mark.

- Causes of the war. You should explain all the causes of the war. It might appear a text to recognize the causes and comment them.

- Alliance system: we worked this point by a crossword.

- Development of the war and its features. Pay attention to the novelties of this war (weapons, use of the propaganda, means of communication...) and the life in the trenches. We read a sodier´s letter about Christmas truce.

- Peace treaties: Focus on the Versailles treaty, worked by a crossword.

- Consequences: What changes are there in the political map of Europe. Compare both maps, before and after the war.

- Pictures: Review the pictures that are uploaded on this blog. You should relate them to an aspect of the war.

- Russian revolutions: chronological outline; text worked in class about the two revolutions (matching paragraphs) and videos (both in English and in Spanish, uploaded on this blog).
It is very important to difference the bourgeois revolution and the Bolshevik revolution, to know the main politicians and revolutionaries (Lenin, Kerensky, Trotsky) as well as Czar Nicholas II; to know the differences between the liberal ideas and the communist ones; to explain Lenin´s program to gain soviet´s support (all the power to the soviets: peace, bread and land).

- Crash of  1929. Causes and consequences.
