John Simpson Gallipoli

The Gallipoli campaign was described as the baptism of the newly federated Australia, and a chance for Australian soldiers to prove themselves to the world. They were not ultimately victorious, but the soldiers came to represent the character traits of the new country: fit and healthy, duty bound and courageous, good humored and egalitarian. The ANZAC image allowed Australians to both demonstrate loyalty to Britain, and claim an identity of their own. There is much to challenge the factual accuracy of the ANZAC image.

During World War I, the Australian home front was impacted by a long and varying list of occurrences during the period of time between the years of 1914 to 1918. The home front was influenced politically through the arguments over the conscription vote and as Australia became divided between the different war beliefs. It was also influenced by social change, as the use of censorship drastically altered the Australians’ views of war and women began to pick up odd jobs in order to assist the soldiers as very few of them were allowed to directly help as nurses in Gallipoli. There were also extreme economic alterations as the wages in Australia were pushed down and prices were pushed up, and the country discarded major trade partners who had become their enemy.

I arrive on the shores of Gallipoli my heart beating like a gun I hear the cold deafening screams of my brothers jar into my hear like a whistle. Through the mud filled trenches I walk my legs feeling impossibly cold.

The conditions in Gallipoli were very hard varing from becoming liking to get a disease,The constant noise,bad food,daily death or fallen brothers and lack of rest.

He was placed in command of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps. Prior to the landings on the Gallipoli peninsula, the general decided to split his forces. As Powles described:

The Conception for The War Memorial Following the Gallipoli Campaign in 1915, the 1st Australian Infantry continued to battle on the Western Front. Charles Bean, their official war correspondent and later to be one of the founding fathers of the War Memorial wrote about how moved he was with the soldier’s sufferings, specifically at Pozieres. The following month the conception of the memorial museum for the soldiers who fought was born. Roles of Charles Bean and John Treloar.

World War I (1914-1918) was considered the 'Great War' and Australia’s Gallipoli campaign has always been considered as the pinnacle of the Australian military feats. This is due to the constant glorification of the event despite the fact it was an unmitigated failure. However, the work of the Australian army force in the most important battleground of WW1 the 'Western Front' is often cast under the shadow of Gallipoli. The battles on the Western Front took place in France, Belgium and parts of Germany and this is where some of the most pivotal battles were fought. The contribution and success of the Australians will be assessed through the analysis of several sources related to four major contributions related to the Western Front. These include the amount of Australians involved, the external opinions of Australia in the Western front, The Battle of

After Gallipoli the 14th Battalion was shipped to France, where, at Pozières in August 1916 and at Bullecourt in 1917 he won the Military Cross and a bar to that award. The Australian official historian, Charles Bean, described his actions at Pozières, during which he recaptured a section of trench, freed a group of recently captured Australians and forced the surrender of some fifty Germans, as "the most dramatic and effective act of individual audacity in the history of the

but it was denied to him. Hence, he paid a fisherman to get him to Gallipoli on boat. When he reached there, he asked other Australian and Turkey soldiers to help him to find his three sons’ bodies but nobody was interested. One soldier asked why should anyone waste their time to look for an insignificant person’s son.

He enlisted at the Australian Imperial Force on 18 September 1914 as a private in the 14th Battalion. He trained at Egypt. Jacka's battalion led him to Gallipoli on 26 April 1915. After three weeks on 19th of May, with the ANZACs now entrenched above the beaches, the Turks launched large-scale frontal assaults against their positions. The reason was just the same as every one else, war is great, you have honour and much more propaganda

Vice is a renound production company that is notorious for having documentaries that push the boundaries of the 21st century journalism. In 2013 they released “This is what winning looks like” a documentary that shines light on the United States of America’s involvement with the war against the Taliban in Afghanistan back in 2007. The documentary presents a coherent point of view that is over shadowed and pushed under the rug by North American Media and Propaganda. The title was “inspired by the General John R. Allen who spoke of the war as a victory for USA in setting Afghan forces as a defense for the people and ensuring that at the end of it the government of the country would ultimately serve the citizens in this war-torn country” (Anderson). However Ben Anderson a journalist, television reporter and writer, who is the director of this particular production reveals the ugly side of the end of the war and the devastating massage of the title. As the preparations to have the United States of Americas troops withdraw from the country comes to its near end, the Afghan officials are still unprepared and disillusioned by the reality of what this would mean for them. As the state of the country is still very fragile and the leaders are still corrupt.

John Mccrae Was born November 30th 1872 in Guelph Ontario, a small city not too far away from Toronto.

In 1876 the good ship “Porpoise” sailed into Trinity Bay carrying customs officers tasked with opening a port and collecting duties from visiting craft. The government named the new settlement for the then Governor of Queensland, Sir William Wellington Cairns.

These visuals show the historical idea of leadership and how it is significant in the battle of Gallipoli. World War I was the first global conflict. There were many territorial disputes and interlocking alliances that led to declarations of war and the act of leadership has consequences for many men both positive and negative. There were many leaders who were involved in the Gallipoli campaign who attempted saving nations and stopping conflicts. A few leaders of this war made the major impacts and decisions which lead to this outbreak of devastation, two men in particular who have been known to be the main instigators involved in World War I and that is Winston Churchill and Mustafa Kemal.

The land wars also known as the New Zealand wars was a series of armed conflicts which took place in New Zealand from 1845 to 1872. This occurred between the British/colonial government and the indigenous Maori. During Captain Cook’s earlier visit, he recommended New Zealand as an ideal area for Europeans to settle, in particular, the Bay of Islands. The British government at the time payed no attention to Captain Cooks recommendations. In 1810 the American and European whalers as well as traders began visiting the Bay of Islands which created a settlement called Kororareka. Russell, which was the first capital of the country, quickly became the fifth largest settlement in New Zealand filled with brothels and grog shops. The Ngapuhi tribe which was from the North region of Auckland, were able to trade with the Local Europeans. Furthermore, because of this the Maori came into contact with much needed and devastating inter-tribal war weapons such as the Musket. Due to this trade amongst the Maori and Europeans, the Ngapuhi tribe were the first tribe to obtain such weapons. In the 1840s there was a written agreement between the British crown -the monarch, and more than 500 Maori chiefs. The treaty is made up of 3 articles and was written in 2 versions- Maori and English.In the first article written in English, it says that Maori leaders gave the Queen all rights and powers of ‘sovereignty’ over their land. However in the Maori version the Maori only gave the Queen ‘te
