ehh i beg to differ. people at my school are doing it and they have to do sun yat sen. i had to do him last year as well as WWI and indochina + all the stuff on him is the same...after writing a few essays his facts and history are like a breeze...

Hey Ziff, you said you wanted to help people with modern. I'm not in HSC yr, but will be next yr, but I'm in exams at the moment and have an essay on russia and the romanovs they want us to research ourselves and write about in the exam, even though we haven't really covered it - weird. Have any ideas about where I should start for this one?:
"How did the 1905 Revolution and WWI lead to the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917" --- your help, or anyone else's, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

i reckon sarah... so quiet around here... *extra bumpage*

jess: i know precious little about the russian revolution, but i bet you could use lenin's quote around the time of the first revolution (i think it was him and then) - "the revolution is dead, long live the revolution!" just taking another stab, WW1 took a lot out of russia and weakened the army's capacity to crush revolts/suppress revolutionary elements, and eventually drew the tsar over to the front rather than maintaining control at home, allowing plots to be organised somewhat more freely.
You'd have to check that though, but i think it's right...
