Sun Yat-Sen and Mohandas Gandhi: Men of Nationalism

Between Sun Yat-Sen and Gandhi, Gandhi was the man to reflective his culture. Yes, Sun Yat-Sen was one of China's most important leaders during the Qing dynasty, but he was eventually overthrown by a dictator. Monhandas Gandhi once said, "An eye for an eye only makes the whole world blind." He clearly had ideas of peace, and used non-violent protests to create a movement against Britain to have India as a free nation. All Sun Yat-Sen did was create a decent revolution, then screw over the United States government by having a Hawaii birth certificate to gain access to the Untied States. Gandhi, on the other hand, did only peaceful things to settle issues with the British over-powering government.

All Quiet On The Western Front



I admit, this movie was perfect for a movie based in WW1. It's way of showing the war was very historically accurate, and it gave me a better idea of what war was like during the 1900's. This movie really showed the Germans side of life during the harsh war years. All Quiet on the Western Front shows their audience death by disease, war, starvation, and all ideas were given with historical accuracy. The characters really shadowed the life of a soldier in WW1, along with the story of how hard a death can really hit a man.

This picture shows a group of French men that were captured by the German army. The caption in German, translates to "The first French prisoners in the courtyard of the Infantry Barracks in Stuttgart." During WW1, Stuttgart was a town in South Germany that was greatly used for prisoners of the opposing side.
