Causes of WWI MindMap Assignment

Assigned Dec.1, Due 6th.

You are to create a MindMap (11x17...or computer program) that
outlines all the contributing factors that led to the outbreak of WWI.
Obviously The MAIN causes need to be present, but try to include as
many of the smaller details, events, tensions and pressures that
played into the outbreak of war in 1914: Napoleon &
nationalism/Congress of Vienna, Concert of Europe, Franco-Prussian
War, unification of Germany, the Naval Race, the Dreadnought, the July
Crisis... the list goes on. Think of how much info you've been
bombarded with over the past week!

You may use the notes posted on this website, information gleaned
from your teacher's AMAZING and FASCINATING lectures in class, books,
websites, whatever... Try to include lots of detail. Make sure to use
connecting lines and words to link related events, themes, goals,
alliances, etc. together. You can (should?) include little visuals,
maps, battle plans, symbols, etc.

If you'd like to team up with a partner go for it!
