HW 10

A. 1. The Soviet citizens are smiling and giving their invaders the Nazi salute.
A. 2. The Soviet citizens were probably treated very poorly by Stalin's communist regime. They may have seen Nazism as an appealing alternative.
A. 3. The people were losing land, property and lives to the Nazis, who they soon discovered to be no less ruthless than Stalin.

B. 1. Stalin was telling his people to destroy their own things, such as livestock, crops, and railway engines so that the Nazis couldn't take them.
B. 2. He probably thought that the Nazis would have been able to use the Soviet Union's own things against it.
B. 3. Soviet citizens would probably have very little left to live off of. The Nazis would probably be forced into a similar situation, running out of supplies more quickly.

C. Method of Attack

• Similar: Blitzkrieg tactics
• Different: The eastern invasion was much larger than the western invasion

Length of Campaign

• Similar:
  
• Different: Eastern campaign was much longer, lasted until the end of Germany's involvement in the war.
  

Effects on Civilians

• Similar: People in the both invasions were forced under Nazi rule
  
• Different: People in the east suffered significantly more
  

Result of Campaign

• Similar: Expanded the scale of the conflict.
  
• Different: In the west, Germany took control of France and was at a standstill with Britain. In the east, Germany was unable to take control of Russia, which pushed the Nazis back and eventually invaded Germany.

A. 1. Japan's oil supplies were under American, British and Dutch control.
A. 2. The countries are portrayed as a chain because of the fact that controlling Japan's oil meant they also had some control over Japan itself.
A. 3. The picture represents how Japan tried to break out of its dependence on the other countries and fight for its own resources.
A. 4. This may have been done to emphasize the point that Japan was breaking free from the West.

B. 1. Three long term causes are Japan's lack of raw materials and oil, Japan's position as the dominant power in the Far East, and the collapse of British colonial power. The most important of these was probably Japan's lack of raw materials and oil, which made Japan desperate to find other ways of getting resources.
B. 2. Three consequences are the Tripartite Axis Pact, the United States' ban on oil trade with Japan, and Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor. The first is the most important of these, as it connected the conflict in the East to the conflict in Europe.
B. 3.

• Japan became the dominant power in the Far East
• United States ban on oil supplies to Japan
• Japan's lack of raw materials and oil
• Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor
• Collapse of British colonial power
• Tripartite Axis Pact
  
• Creation of Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere
• Formation of the United Nations
