World War 2



===**In Your Own Words** - In a paragraph, describe the situation in the Sudetenland. How was the problem resolved and what were the ramifications of this "resolution" What was meant by **appeasement**? [|More on appeasement]=== The Sudetenland was a country which caused big debates and controversies. Hitler was power hungry and believed that since he already conquered Austria, he could keep going conquering moore. Czechoslovakia has a largely German speaking population, so it became his target. The people of Czech didn't like the idea of Hitler taking overso they looked to France and Britain (Europe) for help. Europe didn't really want to get involved and start a war, so an appeasement was created to help avoid war and any disputes. But all the people of Czech knew an appeasement couldnt stop Hitler.

__**Grave of the Fireflies**__ As I watched the movie, I felt as though we Americans, were horrible people. We bombed Japan and killed thousands of innocent people. Even though what the Japanese military had done was wrong, but there were normal people who were not involved in the war between the US and Japan. I got to bothered by watching the burning bodies, and the separations of families. Kids were losing their mothers, their homes, their lives. It had impact on me. I did believe that the overall emotions of the characters were emotionless. I didn't see anyone cry when their houses and families were burnt. It doesn't seem real that a little boy managed to always have what he needed handy. The main point was to show that the war was insane. I give it an A-
