SS11: Notes from Wednesday, 5 Jan

Today we looked at the post-First World War map of Europe and saw what happened to the Empires that lost (Germany, Austria Hungary, and the Ottomans).  We discussed the "successor states" and the League of Nations "mandates" that were created in the attempt to recognize "self-determination." It's great to be the winner, but things are rarely all good or all bad.

Please read the following pages from the Work Book in preparation for Thursday's class:

1) Page 69, including the top of page 70.
2) Page 71-72, Number 3, a-e.
3) Page 74, Number 5.
4) Page 89 - 93 (stop when you get to Letter D (the Soviet Union).

You may wish to look in your text for corresponding information.
