1. What are the most interesting aspects of World Wars 1 and 2?
world war 1: There was a book made from world war one called all quiet on the western front, its all about the war and diseases in the trenches that these men had to go through.
world war 2:The youngest US serviceman was 12 year old Calvin Graham. He was wounded in combat and given a Dishonorable Discharge for lying about his age.
2. What do you hope to learn about these wars?
I basically want to know why it started, what caused these countries to slaughter so many humans just to solve some little dispute.
3. How/Why are these wars important today? How do they impact and/or inform our world today? hint: think about alliances, democracies around the world, cultures, international institutions, nuclear (and other) technologies, etc.
These wars are important, they have shaped our current economy. our weapons today are much more advanced and we have much more knowledge about technology today from these 2 world wars.
