Introductory Overview: The Origins of World War One

Waterlogged_trenchIntroductory Overview
This handout sets up the topic by providing key facts about the war and asking students to consider how they would answer ‘big’ questions such as “In what circumstances would you be prepared to fight in a war? How can we prevent wars from happening? Does war have any positive effects? What is the purpose of Remembrance Day?”

This forms part of the newly updated ActiveHistory scheme of work on the Origins of World War One.
