WWI Game Blog Post

Hello,
My name is Jay K and I’m part of period ones 20th Cent. class. I was in the third group, the Ottoman Empire.
We where joined in an alliance with Great Britian and Austria Hungarian. We all joined the alliance thinking and hopeing we could conquer the world.
We helped by sharing money and sharing power. Most of all are economic points went to Navy to make us a bigger and more powerful alliance.
Are treaties seemed to not be broken until the very end. We joined all of are alliances sticking together to defeat other countries not eachother. We stuck together to gain as many economic points and navy as we could collect.
Am I please with my empire and the outcome of the game? I think are country did the best job we could and became strong and large very quick, but the hype didn’t last long. We got alittle too over confident as an alliance and eventually got beat. So am I happy with the outcome, no i wish we could have won, But in the end we were close to the victory.
I think if i could go back and play again. I would stratagize and become a smarter and more powerful empire. We would end the game with the victory instead of the defeat.

Urban Growth

Hello my name is Jay K, I chose to research the topic of Urban Growth in the late late 1800’s early, 1900’s and how it effected are country up until this date. Urban growth is constant rate of population increase in a major city. Back in the early 1900’s people where migrating from tons of different countries and usually ended up in major cities in the United States. In the year 1860 only 20 percent of people lived in urban or majors cities, by 1900 the percentaged doubled. Urbanization would be the most fitted word for my topic which means the growth of cities population. There was a downfall to Urban growth and how quickly it had happen to the country. Over population means less jobs, less housing, and less food. Imagine are country today living in such drastic conditions. But who tryed fixing the problem? The people fixed it to the best of there abilities, the eventally move off to the suburbs and makes less people in major cities, so work increase in major cities and rural areas. The idea was suburbs, smallers cities outside of major cities. The plan for suburbs where a success, major cities are always going to be crowded but the fact of more homes being built outside of the major cities gave lots of people new work and more room to live. Urban Growth countinues to increase in the years to come.
