TOG Year 4 Week 6

We finished up our study of WWI this week.  It was interesting to notice how the world changed in so many ways as a result of this war.  Having the benefit of hindsight, we looked at how the world was doomed to fight again two decades later as a result of vengeance and retribution instead of forgiveness.
