Today the lesson have started 7 or 8 minutes late because 2ª of Bachillerato has had
an exam with Paqui and they has taken part of the breaktime and 5 minutes of
our lesson. Well, and now I can begin to tell you what we've done today.
We started
remembering the causes of the World War I. While we were watching the causes,
Paqui asked us if we remember: "What it was the arms race?" And Raquel
has answered with this: “ Big investments in weapons, soldiers and war plans to
be ready for war”.
While Paqui
was explaining this Enrique Pérez has
asked Paqui why it was called armed peace if everyone had guns. And she
answered him that this it cames from Latin words.”
SIVIS PACEM PARA BELLUM” and it means: “ If
want peace get ready for war.
Then we
have seen THE
GROWING TENSION BEFORE 1914
Pre-war crises (moments of tension before the war).
-Two crises
in Morroco in 1905 and 1911: tension between France and Germany.
-Two crises
in the Balkans in 1908 and 1912-13: tension between Austria-Hungary and Russia.
·
Annexion
of Bosnia-Herzegovina by Austria.
·
Balkan
Wars.
Outbreak
-28th June 1914: Garrilo Prinzip, a serbian nationalist who
wanted the union of all the slaves of the South, killed the heirs of the
Austro-Hungarian Empire in Sarajevo (Bosnia).
-Austrian
ultimatum to Serbia (48 hours to carry it out).
-28th
July: Austria attacked Serbia. The alliances committed the main European
countries in a 4 year-war.
After Paqui
has drawn on the blackboard a map explaining the attacks occurred. They were:
- 28th July: Austria-Hungary
declared war to Serbia.
- 30th July: Russia
mobilized its troops against Austria-Hungary.
- 1st August: Germany declared war to Russia and to France on the 3rd . On the 4th of August Germany invaded Belgium (Schilieffen Plan) to occupy France: The United Kingdom declared war to Germany when Belgium was invaded. Only Italy kept out of war.
Then she
has explained us: “ Why world war I?”
Although
war developed mainly in Europe, the main colonial powers were involved and
their colonies with them.
Green: Triple
Entente.
Orange:
Central Powers (Germany, Austria-Hungary and allies)
Finally we
have started point B DEVELOPMENT OF THE WORLD WAR I.
Their main
features were:
-New and
deadlier armament: machine guns, poison gas, submarines,etc. Soldiers suffered
a lot and there were millions of dead and disabled.
-Civil
population became more target. Cities were bombed and citizens suffered a lot
at rearguard.
- Constant
use of propaganda to demonize the enemy.
-Governments
of national unity.
And the bell
rang and we have hadn`t time to finish watching the features, so the next day
we continued watchin them.
The new
words we have lerned today are:
compulsory
militar service - servicio militar obligatorio
on the brick of - a punto de
resentment
– resentimiento
gunboat – acorazado
defy – desafiar
Trigger for – detonante de
Trigger – gatillo
the
Central Power – los Imperios Centrales
bandage – benda
airship – dirigible
target - blanco
See you, bye :)

ReplyDeleteHello Andrea,
ReplyDeleteThe first cartoon is not historically accurate, because it corresponds to the Cold War, which started after WW2. You should change it for a different one.
And you have to include all the sources of the images.
I'll correct the mistakes during the week. See you!

ReplyDeleteThese are my corrections:
One thing you should improve is to write complete sentences, not only the notes.
