Socsci Photo Wall Essay- Johann Alain T. Aquino G10-E class number 1 by JOHANN ALAIN TAN AQUINO https://padlet.com/jataquino25/lgcx7n7bpbg0wqbx en-us 2022-11-24 01:37:55 UTC 2025-11-14 02:33:06 UTC hello@padlet.com jataquino25 https://padlet.com/jataquino25/lgcx7n7bpbg0wqbx/wish/2404465417 In this Photo Wall Essay, I plan to educate more people about conflicts. Conflicts are everywhere, it maybe a simple argurement or even as big as the world war leading to deaths and the harm of other people. We also can note that conflicts are already part of our world ever since before up until now. Conficts aren’t something to laugh about especially when it involves violence and the lives of others already, we also see in the end no one wins and it’s completely pointless. This is also the reason why I would want to create this photo wall essay to educate people more about conflict so people can think more and act better before doing something. It may be as small as making decisions  for yourself or even as big as making decisions for your country and the world.  We see how people these days don’t even think before they act, they just do things without thinking about the effects of their actions. And  we should avoid these kinds of scenarios because these could lead to harmful consequences that can not only affect you but others too. ]]> 2022-12-01 01:57:32 UTC https://padlet.com/jataquino25/lgcx7n7bpbg0wqbx/wish/2404465417 jataquino25 https://padlet.com/jataquino25/lgcx7n7bpbg0wqbx/wish/2407337730 This photo is about the assasination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand who was killed by a Serbian nationalist named Gavrilo Princip. Archduke Franz Ferdinand is the heir to the Austro-Hungarian empire. (June 28,1913, Sarajevo Bosnia and Herzegovina)

In my opinion, conflicts aren’t inevitable, it’s our actions that make conflict unavoidable. This event was one of the root cause of the war because imagine a person from a different nation or country kills your leader wouldn’t you feel mad and seek revenge then because of that now it would lead to a conflict. And that’s what happened to Archduke Franz Ferdinandhe  was the heir to the throne meaning he was next in line but since they killed him his younger brother Otto was regarded as more likely to succeed, a possibility that deeply embittered Franz Ferdinand. Adding to this the person who killed Archduke Franz Ferdinand was part of the Serbian nationalist society called the Black Hand (The Black Hand took over the older group's anti-Austrian propaganda within Serbia, which included sabotage, espionage and political murders abroad.) He also has ties with the Serbian government that is dedicated to uniting Bosnia and Serbia meaning he had so much love for his country and he thinks that Archduke Franz could probably  be one of the root causes to destroy their plan as Archduke Franz Ferdinand  was a symbol of Austro-Hungarian occupation and imperialism. Archduke Ferdinand was overseeing Austro-Hungarian military training in Bosnia, that means he was an obvious target for both the Black Hand and Young Bosnia, the group Princip was involved with. Ultimately, it was not the Serbian government who sought to kill Ferdinand, but rather insurrectionist groups seeking to create a unified Balkan state. So after that Austria-Hungary won’t let that just pass by since their leader is gone so they blamed the government of Serbia and made them responsible for the death even though they weren’t really connected to it so after that they soon declared war on Serbia. We see that if this event didn’t happen there would be no conflict at all, it wouldn’t lead to events such as World War 1. It is understandable that it is our right to fight for our country but we need to think about the consequences of our actions. We can fight through non violent means, like through protests, campaigns, etc….  Because look what happened just because of one death it led to millions of deaths of innocent  people who have nothing to do with it. Let’s talk more about this in the next photo wall!

I believe that each action has consequences and the consequences of World War 1 is something really depressing, as it was called the “Great Depression”. Aside from the deaths of millions of people there were much more.  The lingering effects of World War I (1914-1918) caused economic problems in many countries, as Europe struggled to pay war debts and reparations. These problems contributed to the crisis that began the Great Depression.The Great Depression, which lasted from 1929 to 1939, was the worst economic downturn in the history of the industrialized world. It had an impact on almost every nation in the globe and was characterized by severe drops in industrial production and prices (deflation), widespread unemployment, panics in the financial system, and sharp rises in poverty and homelessness rates. It started after the 1929 stock market catastrophe, which paralyzed Wall Street and caused the loss of millions of investors. Consumer spending and investment fell during the following years, which led to sharp drops in industrial output and employment as faltering businesses laid off workers. When the Great Depression peaked in 1933, there were 15 million unemployed Americans and nearly half the nation's banks had failed. Adding to this, Many European nations' economies were in difficulty after the war. The cost of basic commodities like food and petrol increased significantly. Facing this catastrophe, families dispersed or left their homes in search of employment. The U.S. economy was severely damaged by the Great Depression in 1929. Housing prices fell, international commerce broke down, and deflation shot up. A third of all banks failed.1 Homelessness increased.2 Housing prices fell.3 It took 25 years for the stock market to recover. We can also note how many people relocated to urban areas in pursuit of jobs and assistance from President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal government programs after losing their farms to the Great Depression. Children and adults fought for jobs in the face of unprecedented unemployment in an effort to support their families.  As stocks continued to fall during the early 1930s, businesses failed, and unemployment rose dramatically. By 1932, one of every four workers was unemployed. Banks failed and life savings were lost, leaving many Americans destitute. With no job and no savings, thousands of Americans lost their homes. We can even see this until now, we see the effects of the Russia and Ukraine crisis affecting the whole world even though we aren’t part just like oil prices peaking up until 100 pesos per liter unlike before it was only 50 pesos. It also has highly impacted energy and food markets. It was also similar to the “Great Depression” since a lot of Ukranian’s had to leave their homes, had no more jobs, and having no money,etc….

This event shows similarities to the past war which is World War2. I say this because during the Russia and Ukraine war it started with Russia invading Ukraine, while during World War2 it started with Germany invading Poland. We can see how It's a full-scale assault from the north, south, and east. How they are killing civilians and this goes much beyond the people's republic's meager defense. Adding to this There was a buildup of tensions, it was clear what Hitler was going to do. He (Hitler) has already laid claims to parts of Poland just as Putin laid claims to part of Czechoslovakia. Based on this we can note how the goal of Putin was similar to Hitler which was controlling and invading. For Putin he’s main target was Ukraine while for Hitler it was Poland. We also see how the effects of both wars are similar. During the Russia and Ukraine war tens of thousands of people have died, Over 7.1 million Ukrainians have been uprooted from their homes, and another 5.3 million have crossed international borders to seek refuge in neighboring European nations. Countless citizens are unable to go back to their homes. Many people who are still in the nation are compelled to go without access to food, water, healthcare, and other necessities. Stagflation is on the horizon as a result of the Russia-Ukraine war. The confrontation between Russia and Ukraine has caused turbulence in the financial markets and has raised doubts about the future of the world economy. Similarly 
The  World War II period resulted in the largest number of people migrating within the United States, in the history of the country. Individuals and families relocated, millions of people were dead and millions more homeless, the European economy had collapsed, and much of the European industrial infrastructure had been destroyed. More than a million people had to get used to being away from their relatives and friends after being evacuated from cities and towns. Many of the people who stayed suffered bombing attacks, were injured, or were forced to flee their homes. All had to deal with the possibility of a gas attack, air raid safety measures (ARP), rationing, and changes to their daily lives and at school. Adding to it, World War II proved to be the deadliest international conflict in history, taking the lives of 60 to 80 million people, including 6 million Jews who died at the hands of the Nazis during the Holocaust. Civilians made up an estimated 50-55 million deaths from the war, while the military comprised 21 to 25 million of those lost during the war. Millions more were injured, and still more lost their homes and property. The legacy of the war would include the spread of communism from the Soviet Union into eastern Europe as well as its eventual triumph in China, and the global shift in power from Europe to two rival superpowers–the United States and the Soviet Union–that would soon face off against each other in the Cold War. I would say the only main  differences are for Russia and Ukraine no other countries are involved while for World War2 most countries were involved in it.

I believe that nothing is permanent in this world, things have endings, even conflicts. For World War1, it ended with the Treaty Of Versailles. World War I Ended With the Treaty of Versailles June 28, 1919. World War I (1914-1918) was finally over. This first global conflict had claimed an estimated 9 million to 13 million lives and caused unprecedented damage. Soon Germany had formally surrendered on November 11, 1918, and all nations had agreed to stop fighting while the terms of peace were negotiated. On June 28, 1919, Germany and the Allied Nations (including Britain, France, Italy and Russia) signed the Treaty of Versailles, formally ending the war. (Versailles is a city in France, 10 miles outside of Paris.) Adding to this, The Treaty of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919, outside of Paris, France, at the Palace of Versailles. The pact was one of several that officially concluded five years of combat known as the Great War—World War I. The Treaty of Versailles detailed the conditions of peace between Germany and the victorious Allies, led by the United States, France, and the United Kingdom. Different treaties were negotiated by other Central Powers, most notably Austria-Hungary, with the Allies. One of the most debatable armistice agreements in history is the Treaty of Versailles. The so-called "war guilt" clause of the treaty required Germany and other Central States to bear full responsibility for World War I, which resulted in territory loss, a reduction in military strength, and reparations to Allied powers. In addition to that Germany was compelled by the treaty to give up colonies in Africa, Asia, and the Pacific, cede territory to other countries like France and Poland, lower the strength of its military, pay war reparations to the Allies, and admit responsibility for the conflict. We can see how this treaty is somewhat controversial since yes it did end WW1 but it also caused WW2. We also can note how they made it really unfair for Germany since they made Germany sign it forcefully  even though they refused to, plus it made them responsible for mostly everything, as if they were the only ones responsible for all the deaths and destruction, even though other countries were also part in the War. And because of that it made the Germans angry, and it led to the rise of Adolf Hitler and later on another conflict which is WW2. They should have just made the treaty fair since everyone did something no matter if it was big or small, they still did something. Going back to my point earlier we see how, it is man’s actions that make conflict unavoidable just like the Treaty Of Versailles if they made it fair to the Germans and for everyone then there would be no war and conflict at all.

I do believe that as a citizen of one’s country and nation we must do something if we think that there is something wrong in our country. We must make our voices heard for changes in our country if needed. Because sometimes our leaders make wrong decisions since they aren’t perfect and sometimes they don’t notice it. That’s  where our part comes in, to do something about it so they would notice and realize it. Just like in this picture we see Russian’s protesting to stop the war against Ukraine because in their opinion they think it’s wrong and is something that should be stopped. We see how they did their part and it’s now the part of the government to listen and realize the voice of the people. But in this case we see how they ignore the voices and concerns of the people. And they still continue the awful things just like killing, bombing, destroying, etc… That is now out of our control, we can’t control their minds and actions. But what we can do is to educate others especially the young ones because they are the future generations and it is them who will control the future. So as early as now we need to educate them more about conflict because that is one of the most horrible things in the World. I say this since it leads to broken relationships, hurting each other, or even as big as death. As a grade 10 student, I can make things to educate people such as this photo wall essay, make posters, videos, infographics, presentations, etc… It will be covering things such as conflicts, like root causes of conflicts, effects of conflicts, how to resolve them, and many more. This wouldn’t just be applicable to small conflicts but conflicts as big as the world war. I believe that this is very essential so they know how to avoid it, know its consequences and why they shouldn’t do it, another is how to resolve it if it happens.

We also see the consequences of it , but for some reason we still don’t see change from centuries ago until now. It’s like “history repeating itself”. We haven’t learned from the past and we still follow the mistakes of the past. We saw how conflict starts, just like doing something that can provoke someone or even a nation just like the killing of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. We see how that event was the main reason why WW1 happened since it provoked the people of Austria-Hungary because a person from a different nation killed their leader. Another thing that can lead to conflict based from the past is treating someone or a nation unfairly, and we see this in the Treaty Of Versailles, it was so unfair for the Germans, and since they were treated unfairly it led to provoking them and since they are provoked it now leads to a conflict. We also see how awful and horrible the consequences were for World War 1 and World War 2 like deaths, lost of homes, poverty, torture, and many more.  Yet we haven’t learned and still continue to do it.  Which is why as young members of society we should, educate people more about these things, just like the past so they would know how to not cause one, think twice about their actions because of the consequences it could lead to, and resolve one if it happens. We need to also educate others to have better choices leading to better outcomes.
