Fascism
Fascism is a political movement characterized by extreme loyalty to the state and obedience to a single leader who has total control over the government. Fascist systems are totalitarian, have no elections, censor information, and use propaganda and threats of violence to maintain the leader's power and ensure the people remain loyal to the nationalist cause. Wealthy individuals who want to protect their influence often make up fascist political parties.
New democracies and depression
After World War 1, many new democracies emerged in Europe as people feared absolute rulers. However, most European nations had no history of democracy and the new coalition governments formed to rule were often weak and ineffective. This political instability, combined with economic problems like depression and hyperinflation in countries like Germany, created a period of great uncertainty in Europe from 1919 to 1939.
Depression and inflation in germany
Germany faced hyperinflation after World War I due to printing money to fund the war and pay reparations, which led to economic hardship, uncertainty in the new democratic government, and questions about peace. The Dawes Plan in 1924 provided a US loan to stabilize Germany's currency and helped its economy recover by 1929, improving conditions for maintaining peace agreements like the Locarno Treaty and Kellogg-Briand Pact that Germany signed.
The rise of hitler 2012
Adolf Hitler rose to power in Germany after World War 1. He was unhappy with the Treaty of Versailles and joined the Nazi party in 1920. As the leader, he believed Germans were a superior race and that they needed more land for empire. In 1923, Hitler tried to overthrow the German government but failed and was imprisoned. While in prison, he wrote Mein Kampf outlining his racist beliefs. After release, he grew the Nazi party's popularity until being appointed Chancellor in 1933. He then consolidated power and established a fascist dictatorship, oppressing minorities and censoring opposition.
Russian revolutions cp 2012
Alexei, the only son of Nicholas II and heir to the Russian throne, had hemophilia. A man named Rasputin claimed he could cure Alexei through his mystical powers, gaining influence over the royal family. Rasputin's opposition to reforms and support of autocracy made him unpopular. In 1917, food shortages and unrest led to the overthrow of Nicholas II and the establishment of a provisional government, but the Soviets gained power and Lenin returned to Russia. In November 1917 the Bolsheviks seized power in the Bolshevik Revolution, establishing the Soviet Union with Lenin as its leader.
India before imperialism
This document provides an overview of India before imperialism, including its geography and early civilizations. It discusses the Indus Valley Civilization along the Indus River from 2500 BCE, noting its major cities of Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro. It also summarizes the rise of religions like Hinduism, the origins of the caste system, Muslim invasions between the 11th-16th centuries, the founding of Sikhism in 1500 BCE, and the establishment and decline of the Mughal Empire from 1526-1858 under various rulers like Akbar, Shah Jahan, and Aurangzeb.
British imperialism in india role play
The British took control of India in the 18th century after defeating the French. They established the British East India Company to rule through economic imperialism. This had negative economic impacts on India by restricting its industries and forcing it to grow cash crops. In the 1850s, rumors of contaminated rifle cartridges led sepoys to rebel against British rule, sparking the Sepoy Mutiny. The rebellion spread widely but ultimately failed due to disagreements between Hindu and Muslim groups. In the late 19th century, Indian nationalist movements emerged calling for independence and equal rights under the British Raj. Tensions continued to rise, with figures like Gandhi advocating nonviolent resistance, until India was finally granted independence in 1947 after over a
Africa before imperialism cp 2012
The document discusses Africa before and during the period of European imperialism. It describes how early interactions involved trading between Africans and Europeans, with Africans controlling the trade. It then explains how the slave trade developed and how Europeans gained power through technological advances like quinine, steam engines, and maxim guns. Finally, it summarizes how European countries colonized Africa following the Berlin Conference where they arbitrarily divided the continent without African representation.
Nigeria and south africa
The document defines and provides examples of different types of colonial rule:
- Direct control refers to when a stronger country takes over the government of a weaker country completely.
- Indirect control is when a weaker country's leader remains in power but is controlled by the stronger country, like a puppet.
- A sphere of influence gives an outside power exclusive trading privileges in another country.
- Informal empire refers to independent but less developed nations controlled by private businesses rather than governments.
Japan modernizes cp 2012
Japan was isolated for most of its history, but in 1853 four US navy ships arrived demanding Japan open trade. Intimidated, Japan signed a treaty in 1854 granting trading privileges to the US. The Japanese people were unhappy with foreign influence in their country. Emperor Mutsuhito took control and began modernizing Japan based on Western models, sending representatives to study governments in Germany, navies in Britain, and education in the US. Within 30 years, Japan built up significant infrastructure like railroads, industry, and a strong military, transitioning from a feudal to modern state.
China’s fall to foreign influence cp 2012
China had a long history of self-sufficiency and technological advancement before the 18th century when they first encountered Western influence. They produced enough crops and goods like porcelain to support their population without needing trade. In the 18th century, a British ambassador showed Chinese inventions like clocks and balloons to the emperor, but China was unimpressed as they already had more advanced versions. In the 19th century, the British began smuggling highly addictive opium into China against the Chinese government's wishes. When China tried to stop the opium trade, it led to the Opium War in 1839 where Britain easily defeated China's outdated navy. In 1842, China was forced to sign the unequal Treaty of Nanjing
Introduction to imperialism
This document provides an introduction to imperialism, including its definition and different types. Imperialism is when a powerful nation dominates other countries politically, economically, or socially. There are four main types of imperialism discussed: colonies, protectorates, spheres of influence, and economic imperialism. The document then examines potential motives for why nations practice imperialism, such as exploratory, political, ideological, religious, and economic goals. Nations may seek to map new territories, control other governments, civilize foreign populations, convert people to their religion, or gain access to raw materials and trade.
Industrial revolution philosophers
The document discusses several economic ideas that emerged during the Industrial Revolution, including laissez-faire economics advocated by Adam Smith. Thomas Malthus and David Ricardo built on Smith's ideas and believed that population growth would lead to a permanent underclass of poor workers with declining wages. Utilitarians like Jeremy Bentham believed the goal should be maximum benefit for most people. Socialists advocated public ownership of resources and factories to reduce inequality. Karl Marx proposed communism, with public ownership and no private property. Workers joined unions to advocate for better conditions.
Effects of industrialization cp 2012
Industrialization led to rapid urbanization as people moved to cities for new factory jobs. This overwhelmed existing city infrastructure and resources, resulting in unsanitary living conditions and the spread of sickness. Factory work also had long hours, dangerous conditions and low pay for unskilled laborers. Industrialization created a new social hierarchy, with a growing middle class and a greater divide between rich and poor.
Industrial revolution philosophers cp 2012
The document discusses several economic and political philosophies that emerged during the Industrial Revolution, including:
- Laissez-faire capitalism as proposed by Adam Smith, allowing businesses to operate freely without government regulation.
- Utilitarianism as introduced by Jeremy Bentham, which said societies and policies should be judged based on their overall usefulness and benefit to the population.
- Socialism in which the public owns the means of production to benefit all people and prevent poverty.
- Communism as envisioned by Karl Marx in which all land, businesses, and property are publicly owned and shared equally.
- Workers organizing unions and trade associations to collectively bargain for better working conditions and reforms through strikes
Napoleon’s conquests cp 2013
Napoleon crowned himself Emperor of France in 1804 after gaining support through a plebiscite. He then began conquering other European countries to build a French empire. However, his invasion of Russia in 1812 using a scorched earth policy by the Russians resulted in the loss of 300,000 men, weakening his army. This led to the formation of the Third Coalition against Napoleon. After trying and failing to defeat the Coalition at the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon was finally defeated and exiled to St. Helena, bringing his reign to an end.
French rev role play cp
The document describes the political turmoil in France during the French Revolution from 1789-1799. Key events include peasants rebelling in 1789, the creation of the National Assembly and Declaration of Rights of Man, Maximilien Robespierre gaining power in 1792 and instituting the Reign of Terror by executing opponents, Robespierre then being overthrown and executed in 1794, and the unstable Directory government being replaced by Napoleon Bonaparte in 1799 who establishes himself as ruler.
French revolution begins cp 2013
Under the Old Regime system in France, there were three estates - clergy, nobility, and commoners. The king had absolute power and the estates system meant commoners (Third Estate) faced heavy taxes and had no political rights. As Enlightenment ideas spread and economic troubles grew, resentment toward the monarchy and inequality increased. The meeting of the Estates-General in 1789 failed to address these issues, fueling the revolution as the Third Estate formed the National Assembly and commoners stormed the Bastille prison in Paris, marking the start of the French Revolution.
French revolution begins honors 2013
The document provides historical context about life in France under the Old Regime prior to the French Revolution. It describes how the system was structured around an absolute monarch and three estates, with the Third Estate (commoners) facing heavy taxation while having no political rights or say in government. Dissatisfaction grew as Enlightenment ideas spread and as the American Revolution inspired calls for more freedoms and representative government. Economic troubles further fueled unrest leading up to the start of the French Revolution.
