Hi, today
is my turn to write the journal.
At the
beginning of the lesson, some people have asked Paqui their doubts about their
projects. Some people have already started their project, but another people
have not started yet.
After that,
we have continued with WW1. First, Paqui has remembered the causes of WW1. They
were four and they can be remembered with the word MAIN:
- Militarism: idea that war was good for
nations. All countries invested a lot of money to be ready for the war.
- Alliance: the “Triple Alliance” and the
“Triple Entente” were created.
- Imperialism: tension between Austria-Hungary and
Russia in the Balkans and France, the UK and Germany.
- Nationalism: feelings of superiority
over other nations.

After that,
Paqui has explained the pre-bellic crises.
The pre-bellic crises were several crises in
the first years of the 20th century, which increased tension. There
were two crises in Morocco: one in 1905-1906 and other in 1911, in which tension
increased between France and Germany.
There were
also two crises in the Balkans: one in 1908 in which Austria seized Bosnia-Herzegovina
and other in 1912-1913 that were the Balkan Wars. In the Balkan Wars Serbia,
Montenegro, Greece and Bulgaria fought against the Ottoman Empire.

At the end
of the class, Paqui has explained us the trigger for the war:
On the 28th
June 1914, Gavrilo Prinzip killed the heirs of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in
Sarajevo. Austria-Hungary accused Serbia of being involved in the terrorist
attack. Serbia denied their involvement and refused to allow the
Austro-Hungarian police to investigate in Serbia. After that, Austria-Hungary
attacked Serbia, then Russia attacked Austria-Hungary, Germany attacked Russia
and France through Belgium and finally the UK intervened with France to attack Germany. Italy was the only country that didn't participate initially.

Hello,
ReplyDeleteHere you have my corrections:
You've forgotten that when the alliances started working, Germany attacked Russia and also France through Belgium. That's why the United Kingdom decided to intervene too. Italy was the only country that didn't participate initially.
You could have included the image with the different countries represented with people, because it shows very well how the alliances involved all the countries.
Don't use abbreviations when you write the journal.
This is the text corrected:
