In Rome, small sects broke off from Judaism to form groups that eventually became Christian churches. They verbally and physically distanced themselves from traditional Judaism by preaching conformity to Roman standards. After Christianity became the state religion of Rome, Jews were more vilified and oppressed, confined to ghettos and with their possible occupations and marriages limited.

By the fall of 1918, Germany's leaders were aware that they would soon be defeated, and asked the Kaiser to seek a peace agreement. The Kaiser agreed, and his chancellor secretly informed the Americans that Germany wanted to end the war. On November 9, the Allies threatened to invade Germany if it didn't agree to give up its armaments, and on November 11, an armistice agreement was signed. A constitution was created that created a democracy with power divided among three branches of government. Only the judicial branch was appointed, and the other two were elected by the people.

The German government put the need for order above the law. People could get away with pretty much everything as long as they claimed to do something in defense of the state. Most of the time, people would get little to no punishment for crimes that would normally require bigger punishments, such as murder, treason, and war crimes.

The Treaty of Versailles, created by the Allied European and U.S powers, centralized the idea of "self-determination" or the principle that each ethnic group in Europe should have it's own land and government, hopefully limiting conflict. Although Wilson's goal was to improve from past mistakes, the European powers hoped to punish Germany.

By 1916 the war was continuing and women were now encouraged to fill jobs that were once done by men. 13 million soldiers had died, and there were many atrocities committed including bombings and poison gas. Germany specifically turned against minority groups, mainly Jewish people.

Although Wilson attempted to create a "just peace" using the league of nations and other diplomatic resources, these principles were not applied to the Allied powers, essentially subjugating the Germans and their allies to a system the rest of the world would not follow.

# data[].attributes.body
War promotes conformity through uniting the people around one cause. Soldiers are made to conform to army life in order to serve the greater cause, and individuality is rarely appreciated. War strengthens stereotypes about specific groups of people, especially about enemy countries. If a nation can stereotype an entire enemy country as the complete opposite of their own country, it creates a common enemy and soldiers don't feel so bad about killing them since the entire enemy population is made to seem backwards and evil.

Every nation limited freedom during the war. Some suspended elections. Others curbed freedom of speech and the press. Why do you think that democracy is often one of the first casualties of war?

It is hard to see the world from another person's perspective as we've spent our whole life seeing the world from our point of view and perspective based solely on ourselves. Minow believes that to be impartial you must see the world from another's perspective because that way you will know if the situation is fair to everyone and not only yourself or groups similar to yours. By seeing the world from another view you can see if the situation will affect all the same way or if you would be favouring one group over another.

Thomas Jefferson, the author of the Declaration of Independence, considered slavery immoral. Yet he himself was a slaveholder who considered Africans a threat to "white racial purity." Despite such beliefs, Jefferson has inspired generations of African Americans.

As supplies in Russia ran out, riots broke out in the towns. When Czar Nicholas II sent troops to restore peace, the soldiers disobeyed and instead joined in on the riots. The Bolsheviks gained control and established a new government based off the ideas of Karl Marx, a communist. Russia then signed a treaty with Germany that ended Russia involvement in the war and turned over many Russian supplies and industries to Germany. This was very beneficial to Germany and made them victorious in the east, but all hope was lost when the US joined the war in 1917 and quickly broke the German line.

After the First World War, the Wiemar Republic emphasized learning history as a series of facts to be memorized. Ancient history, Roman, Greek, and Medieval, was taught more rigorously than modern German politics, and any connection between the two was discouraged. Wars that the Germans had lost were glossed over, especially the First World War. School was seen as a means to an end in the form of a difficult test called the Abitur, rather than a process of learning. Individual activities were considered un-German, instead activities had to be done in a group with other German children.

Censorship is a big problem in several countries, the motivation for this, as mentioned in the article is believed to be fear. This mention of fear tying into censorship relates to the judges of Weimar Germany because these judges do not consider themselves responsible for upholding the constitution, because of this, people began to talk and complain about people getting off with less punishment than they might have thought they deserved. This freedom to protest was taken away, as they began to fear their order being broken. This applies to the United States today, because much of our law is ruled by the fear of what might happen if it's not present.

# data[].attributes.body
Some things that might lead a soldier to disobey orders, especially when disobeying in the Russian society that existed before the USSR would certainly end in death, are things such as threats to loved ones or family due to the government, or the failings of a government. Mutinies are rare, because even if a part of a country's military participates in the mutiny, the rest of said military might not be favorable to the idea of a mutiny. Not to mention that the remaining government and military forces could squash the mutiny before it gains too much momentum, and that any people who participated in the mutiny would be putting their family and friends in danger by doing this. A working definition of "mutiny" would have to be "an uprising of those in the military against their leaders, with intent to overthrow them."

# data[].attributes.body
The decision to keep the news of the approaching defeat from the public was very significant. When a country is at war, its people have a right to know whether or not the country is about to lose the war. Because a country depends on its people, they should be informed of (at least) the most crucial decisions being made as they relate to the overall state of the country. Additionally, when a government continually lies to its people, they will begin to lose faith in their leaders.

They were required to wear distinct clothing as a method of identification. This attracted attention to the fact that they were socially excluded. This additionally led to the demonization these people and reinforced the idea that they were rejected by Christian Europe and the Muslim Empire. For those who were forced to wear this clothing, they likely experienced self-deprecating thoughts as a "mirrored" result of the environment they were occupying.

German schools choice to ommit World War 1 and other current events that dealt with Germany losing was to build nationalism for the country. This betrayed the students of Germany as they were never taught about what was going on around them and if they were for example the Treaty of Vesailles it was taught in a way that built an idea of what Germany's long term goal is.

Q2: Why do you think the generals chose to remain silent when republican leaders were accused of "stabbing Germany in the back"? How did their silence threaten the traditions and values they were trying to preserve? How did it turn a lie into something that generations of German students learned as a "historical fact"?

In our opinion, the republican leaders chose to remain silent out of pride. If they had admitted their wrongdoings, the country may have turned against them and their reputation would have suffered. However, their silence effectively turned the people against them. Lies, or rather lack of truth, caused distrust in the government. Soon, a revolution would form. By not setting the record straight, misinformation continued for quite some time, as history had not been properly recorded.

Both can be true- his ideas of "the true measure of man" have been spread throughout the world as revolutionary ideals to base a country from but in learning about his past we can't ignore the hypocracy that he preached along with these ideals

Every school teaches attitudes and values as well as facts and skills. What attitudes and values were Klaus's teachers conveying when they  tried to control what students learned? When they refused to discuss current events?
The teachers were conveying an attitude of fixed perspective. They taught their students that what they needed to know was going to be given to them, and that questioning the "facts" was wrong because all the truths had already been given to them.

What values are reflected in the emphasis on the Abitur, the exam that controlled so much of Klaus's life?
The values that are reflected by the emphasis on the Abitur are those of anti-curiosity. The size and importance of the test made it hard for the students to invest themselves into much else, and the emphasis on factual memorization and not on interpretation of ideas conditioned the students to think in terms of true or false instead of how true, how false and why.

What values did the children learn the day they were instructed to turn their backs on African soldiers?
They learned that people that are not German in any way are not meant to be part of their life, and that anybody who was not German should be removed from the lives.

- On November 11, 1918, an armistice agreement was signed in France.
-Within just 48 hours, Germany had lost its monarch, its empire, and the war itself.
-The constitution created after the armistice was based on a series of compromises. No group got everything it wanted, but every group got something.

Lincoln was racist as a young person, but he abolished slavery when he was president; this demonstrates that people can drastically change their opinions of other groups of people after learning about the other groups and interacting with them. Although Lincoln was most likely racist his entire life, he let go of some of the racist ideas that were spewed by Americans before abolishing slavery.

Although Europe was divided  so  each ethnic group had its own land and government - self-determination - this was not applied to the rest of the world, allowing Europe and America to rule Asia and Africa. The Treaty focused mostly on punishing Germany and protecting Europe from another war, rather than  give justice to all people, as Wilson claimed it was.
