Hanover: The Damage In World War II

General S. Patton once said, “Never tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise you with their ingenuity.” Some may argue that his life was cut short while others may say it was too long. Being a man who fought in World War I and World War II, George S. Patton, Jr. certainly contained a wealth of experience in warfare. Looking at the written history, there were those who seemed to undervalue Patton, as well as those who may have held him much too high. Researchers have many different opinions on Patton’s’ leadership, but the research here will encompass both the positive and the negative aspects of his leadership and surrounding issues while addressing the following questions:

People have different views on the morality of this bombing. There are a few reasons the bombing can be considered ok and moral. Firstly this bombing can be viewed as payback for the London attack that the Nazis just did. Also the Nazi’s have been killing innocent Jews and other groups of people the entire war. Finally Dresden was being used as an industrial city. This would be a factor of why the bombing would be ok because the allies had to destroy the place where the Nazis built their weapons. The following reasons are why the bombing was wrong to do. Firstly the Nazi’s didn’t use Dresden as a key strategic city. For this reason, people asked why would the allies bomb a historic city and not a city that the Nazis used. Next the city couldn’t

The year is 2187. The Fourth World War had just ended, and 85 percent of the world population had been wiped off. The Beherrschen-Fanatiker, Germany’s most feared radicalized party, had taken control over the rest of the world- what’s left of it anyway. People who survived were all gathered in one place, and consequently lived in a controlled environment, highly monitored by the government in power. After the Beherrschen-Fanatiker claimed power over the world, it devised an ingenious plan to monitor everyone’s lives and make sure that they all obeyed every aspect of rules it imposed. It invented a chip that was to be inserted into each and every human being living on the face of the earth, apart from the members of the government and the top scientists in charge of creating and programming these chips. These chips relayed instructions to their subjects on what to do every hour, and would make sure that everyone followed the government’s instructions to the latter, failure to which resulted to severe punishment, depending on the rule violated.

The defeat of Germany in World War Two was due to many factors. All of these factors were influenced by the leadership and judgment of Adolf Hitler. Factors such as the stand fast policy, Hitler’s unnecessary and risky decision making in military situations, for example when attacking the USSR, and the declaration of war on the US. Plus other factors, like Hitler’s alliance with Italy, despite its obvious weaknesses, and the pursuit of the final solution, can all be attributed to the poor leadership and judgement of the Fuhrer, which would eventually lead to the downfall of the Third Reich.

Germany was left indebted to the United States for the relief it received. Guinnane noted that prior to entering the war, governments guaranteed their citizens that allied parties will pay for the costs accumulated during the war (9). The assurance left Germany indebted to France and Italy given that they entered the war in alliance to the nation. Guinnane reported that end of World War II marked the end of the Nazi regime and reparations from Germany to the Jewish group for the cruelty inflicted by the movement (5). The Jewish group was regarded as a nation by the United States. Germany paid an amount of $ 500 million to German-Jews to appease the damage they endured. King stated that after the war, the Soviet Union showed preference to

The bombing of Dresden from February 13 to February 15, 1945 remains one of the most controversial bombings in World War II. Located in eastern Germany, Dresden was targeted by Allied bombers during the final months World War II in the European theatre. Rationales behind the bombing remains controversial due to conflicting Allied and German viewpoints. The Allies contended that the bombing was to target industrial centers, communication hubs, and to aid Soviet troops advancing from the West. On the other hand, Germans asserted that Dresden had no major industrial hubs, and the attacked on an undefended city was a war crime.

WW11 started when Germany, Japan, and Italy were allied up and started to invade land. The USA, Soviet Union, and Great Britain were also allies. Japan, Italy, and Germany wanted to gain land. Japan wanted to take part of Asia and the south pacific. Germany wanted to take Northern and Eastern Europe. Italy wanted to take over Northern Africa and Greece. WW11 started on September 1st 1939 when Germany invaded Poland. Germany was led by Adolf Hitler; he had a style of warfare that was deadly. He used infantry, armor, artillery and aircraft work. In this type of war style they had to be able to communicate so they equipped every vehicle with a small radio to communicate with other vehicles. The German war style was called the Blitzkrieg. This

The Fourth Amendment is part of the Bill of Rights which was established in the seventeenth and eighteenth century English common law. Aside from the rest of the amendments in the Bill of Rights the Fourth Amendment can be traced back to a strong public reaction from some cases back in the 1760s. Two of these cases happened in England and one case happened in the colonies. These cases involved some pamphleteers who would pass out pamphlets to the public in order to spread their word around. These pamphlets however ridiculed the king and his ministers. After finding this out the king issued warrants to have the pamphleteer’s homes ransacked and stripped of all their books and papers. Even back then the pamphleteers knew that their rights

There are 440 clauses total in the Treaty of Versailles; the first Twenty Six are for The League of Nations, the other 414 are Germany’s punishment. Because German was left without any support due to these punishments, the country’s economy plummeted, the population starved, and the infrastructure failed catastrophically. Although Germany committed various war crimes deserving of chastisement, the punishment given to Germany was unjust and paved the way to the second world war.

In my opinion, World War I was partially Germany’s fault, but I wouldn’t say entirely. I do believe Germany could have kept Austria in check but instead Germany wanted to have the upper hand in the situation. Also not to mention the war could have been between Austria-Hungary and Serbia, after the heir (Archduke Francis Ferdinand) was assassinated. Instead of that happening, Germany stepped in and then Russia stepped in causing a large disastrous war. Before all that happened the tension was already there between the divided alliances (Austria, Germany, and Italy vs. France, Great Britain, and Russia). It seemed like it was about competition rather cooperating with one another,

The number of immigrants entering the United States legally is greater today than it was at the turn of the century, so as the US economy. US economy has proved to be raised dramatically in the past few years. This made me think about Immigration and the US economy on a same page in my mind. Many questions started populating in my head such as Does immigration in some way affect the US economy? If yes, how? After doing some research, I found that Immigration plays an important role in the US economy. I’ll start with my own background, how this question is connected to me and what other people think about immigration. Next, I’ll talk about my research findings and the unexpected answers I got to my question. Are those answers same as people’s view. As a final point, I’ll talk about what I learned in the process of researching the impact of immigration on the US economy before concluding my essay.

In the years leading up to World War II, Germany was one of the most powerful countries in the world. Though physically small, the country gained power through a unifying force in 1933: the Nazi Party. It did not long for the Nazis, led by Adolf Hitler, to establish control over all of Germany. Before Hitler, the economy was so bad and the citizens were so unhappy that they were desperate for anyone who would improve their situation. Hitler became the perfect candidate when he promised them tax breaks and new social benefits. Of course, Hitler is now considered to be one of the most evil human beings to ever live, setting up concentration camps that starved, abused, and killed an estimated six million Jews.

The year is 1984 and Darryl Hunt has just been sentenced a life in prison for the alleged rape and slaughter of Deborah Sykes. In 2004, he was set free after nearly 20 years behind bars because he was wrongly convicted based off false eye witness testimonies given during the trial (Blau, 2016). There was no physical evidence that connected him to the crime, yet, but based on the eye witness testimonies he was sentenced to a life behind bars for a crime he never committed. A somewhat similar scenario plays out in the film 12 Angry Men, when a jury is forced to deliberate on a life or death sentence for a boy who allegedly killed his own father. While this case has the evidence stacked against the accused boy, a lone member of the jury is not convinced and takes it upon himself to play devil’s advocate on behalf of the boy in the hopes of saving him from certain death. This becomes a high stakes battle of wits, when the juror meets opposition from the eleven other members of the jury, and is forced to bring the other jurors in opposition of the prosecution’s case against the boy.

Germany, a country rich in culture and heritage, yet plagued by the fallout of World War I and World War II, has progressed to become the centerpiece of the European Union and the world’s third richest economy. The first German Empire dates back to the Roman Empire starting in the 8th century AD. During the Middle Ages the German Empire fended off many attacks against their soil from the Hungarians and the Slavs. Fighting and power struggles continued until the 1400’s, when the modern world gradually came into existence with intellectual, economic and political changes.
