In this class we will explore what the world was like just before the outbreak of WWI. We will discuss geographical boundaries, world leaders, relationships between countries, etc. With a firm understanding of all the players and their alliances, we will then delve into the events leading up to the war, and finally we’ll look at the war’s consequences. Throughout the class, we will also try to recognize how events of WWI have had a lasting effect and helped shape our world today.
