Essay on the Causes of World War I

Question 1

Essay

In five paragraphs, write an essay that details three of the four following subjects as causes of WWI: Militarism, Alliances, Imperialism, and Nationalism.

Choose the three that seem the most impactful. In each paragraph, support your claim with supporting details from the documents we used in class.

Your essay is to follow the format of the outline provided in the packet handed out in class. You ARE welcome to use outside sources, but I highly encourage you to use the six documents provided in the packet as the basis of your research.

I understand you cannot format in MLA in the app you are using right here. However, when you are done, copy/paste your work from here into a Google Doc, MLA format it, and submit it to the assignment on Google Classroom

ANY WORDS YOU USE THAT ARE NOT YOUR OWN MUST BE CITED. OTHERWISE IT IS PLAGIARISM, AND WILL RECEIVE AN F FOR THE ASSIGNMENT AND A REFERRAL TO THE DEANS OFFICE. AI CANNOT BE A SOURCE. USE IT TO HELP YOU LEARN BUT DO NOT COPY AND PASTE FROM IT OR USE THE WORDS EXACTLY. USE IT AS A WAY TO HELP YOU LEARN, THEN FIND GOOD SOURCES TO SUPPORT IT.
