3 things you'd change about the world...

name them..

WWI = Non-existant
WWII = Non-existant
Terrorism = Non-existant

No gay hate
No Slavery (well maybe my parents wouldn't have met if it didn't happen)
More Love in the world

Say what you want about the WW1 & 2, but without them the recession would've continued and poverty would've been higher than ever.

I'd have asians rule the world.

I've done this in History, the Wall Street Crash and the Worldwide Depression that followed was between the Wars. Very few countries had increased their GPA after WWI, nearly all had losses. Most of the losses was several million. Germany, for example, was put into a Depression so bad that objects like baskets were worth more than money and hyperinflation was so great the the 10 trillion Marks you received as pay would be worthless within a couple of hours.

I think its fair to say recession happened anyways.

Wasn't al of that due to the first world war? I got this in school too. As punishment they had to pay i think France & England costs.....since like WW1, Germany was one of the causes

They were producing money like crazy people (the paper, what you pay with) but in reality didn't actually have that much, so their money lost sooo much value so something as simple as bread cost like 90.000 DM.

It's basicly this, You have $100 in the bank......BUT you produced $10000 worth of dollar bills.....which you really don't have......so that $100000 is basicly worhless. Could you imagine going to the store with a HUGE bag of money and come out with a tube of toothpaste? That's how bad it was.

The punishment Germany received after WW1 was WAY WAY to severe...they couldn't overcome it.....happy other measures were taken after WW2.

Yeah, Germany was definitely the worst of, but there was a worldwide ressecion after both wars, cos wars are expensive.

Well except the US and most the caribbean countries who was HIGHLY benefiting from oil production, I would know, our tiny island was where the US airforce came to our island to fuel up. Our economie was blossoming.

Especially the US who, to prevent the spread of communism, financialy helped most the european countries get back on their feet after WW2........although i don't think it was the smartest move they made...because i don't think it turned out well for the US. Not sure....can't remember what happened after...only remember the seperation of Germany...and the complicated way not only Germany....but also Berlin was devided. Which was a crazy story on its own. And oddly enough....i remember 85% of everything i was told.

And oddly enough..i STILL failed history

Lol i remember these stories vividly because our history teacher spoke VERY loudly....as i write i could hear him in my head.

I still have no idea why we had to get History on the Germans, WW2, Russian & American History. Why? No freaking idea

Yeah.

I'd much rather have your History Course. My History Higher consists of Brithish Democracy 1850-1914, Pre-War Germany and Scottish Migration. I hate it. Annoying thing is, I want to study History in Uni.

We also get our own history ofcourse and our government system...which i sucked in btw.

Lol.....I hated history...but the teacher i had the last 4 years..he made it cool. You would come out the class with your wrist hurting from homw much you were writing.....BUT he spoke loudly, he kept you entertained...eventhough your writing like a crazy person.

And tbh, you didn't even need a book. His notes were like 80% less then the book BUT they were 10X better to understand. I fell asleep when i read the book. If you study his notes like really good, you can EASILY pass his classes....but i was lazy lol.
