Explorers simulation day 2
This document provides instructions and scenarios for an exploration simulation game. It outlines key factors like supplies, navigation, and morale that will be tracked. Students are assigned roles as explorers and will make dice rolls representing checks on supplies, navigation, and morale. They will also complete ship and personal logs after each scenario.

2) They must choose roles for their characters, a charter from Spain or Portugal, and make regular die rolls to determine if they have success in supply checks, navigation checks, and morale checks.
3) Students are required to write personal logs from their character's perspective and submit them through Edmodo to document their journey.
Explorers simulation day 5
The document provides instructions and details for an interactive role-playing simulation about exploration. It includes:

The document discusses three main types of economic systems: traditional, command, and market economies.

It discusses how after WWII, tensions grew between the Western allies (US, UK, France) and the Soviet Union over the political and economic systems in Eastern Europe. This led to the division of Europe and Germany into capitalist and communist spheres of influence separated by the Iron Curtain. Over time, the US and USSR built up opposing military alliances (NATO and Warsaw Pact) and stockpiles of nuclear weapons in a tense standoff known as the Cold War, which impacted global politics until the Soviet Union's collapse in 1991.
