Film Lesson: Doctor Zhivago

The film Dr Zhivago has depicted the Russian Revolution by being a very good doctor.

People wanted a change to get Cezar out of his thrown because of that Bloody Sunday,when Cezar sent his army to kill all people who was on their way to get food from him. He killed them because he didn't want to hear their complaints, and share his food.

The film made a good impresion on communism but not to me. To me it made it bad in my sort of view.

Dr Zhivago had a first look of communism by the communists took over his mansion.

Causes of World War 1

World war 1 was very a very complicated war. The war was started when the German bruttally murdured some French person that was important to Freance. The war was created to get rid of other kinds of people that wasn't German. To make Germany perfect. World War one was a long war, and it was difficult. The sad thing was that why did the Germans attack other countries.
The answer is that the Germans think that parts of Europe (britain, France, Austria-Hungary, and Russia combined together against the other countries involved. Germany was a very dumb country back then for making 2 world wars. I know my Grand Mother was held prisoner in world war 2 by Hittler. Now I cant decide for a countries faith but I can certainly comment. Germany made a big change after the world wars. Now Germans are really intelligent like the rest of the universe.The sad thing was world wars 1 and 2 killed alot of soildiers. The lives of soilders was but at stake. Alot of people died in wars. I dont belive how crewel the 2 world wars. The life was harder after World War 1 because mostly the country was destroied, and alot of people was killed. The war started on the year 1914, and ended on the year 1918. The war lasted 4 long years.

The Meiji Restoration of Japan

In a battle called the battle of Sekigahara in the 1600's ,leyasu defeated the the Hideyori loyalists and other Western rivals. Between 1639 and 1858 Japan was largely isolated from the outside world. Rade was prohibited except for two Dutch ships a year at Nagasaki. Chinese traders were allowed at Nagasaki as well. In 1858 Commodore Perry forced the Shogun government to allow trade. It is important to recognize that Perry was not forcing the Japanese merchants to trade, he was forcing the Shogun to stop preventing trade.The Shogun lost face as a result of his inability to enforce his will and there arose sentiment for deposing the Shogun. The expedious way to depose the Shogun was to call for the restoration of the Emperor as the head of state. The leaders of the rebellion did restore the Emperor Meiji to a place of prominance but these leaders themselves ruled in the name of the Emperor.
