Journal Entry: Pre-WWII

Hey everyone. Today we discussed how a country's beliefs influences their actions during wartime. We looked at several instances before World War II: Japan during the Nanking Massacre, Italy and Germany in their expansion in Africa and Europe, and Great Britain and France in their appeasement of Nazi Germany.

For homework, you are to make a journal entry and take the role of someone who was living during one of the events we discussed. You can take on the role of a Nanking citizen or a Japanese soldier during the Nanking massacre, a Jewish citizen of Austria during the Anschluss, a British citizen responding to his/her country's actions toward Germany, etc.

Please make sure the journal entry is appropriate. Remember that this is a school assignment.

Have a great rest of the weekend!
