Osama vs. Royal Wedding (Will Harris)

In my opinion I think that Osama is going to have more news coverage than the Royal Wedding. The reasons i think this is because people are more concerned with the death of a major terrorist than a wedding. I think the death is more important than the wedding because of all the things Osama had done to our country. He has done a lot of painful things to our country. He must not be forgotten because we do not want to have anymore terrorist attacks on the U.S. Although the Royal Wedding may be important Bin Laden’s death is alot more important than the wedding because people would rather hear about his death than the wedding.

WWI Game Blog Post

My name is Will H an I’m in period 1. My Empire was Great Britain and we had and alliance with Russia and Austria Hungarian Empire. We started an alliance with them as soon as the game had started. The reason we started and alliance with Russia is because they had a good navy and we wanted to go to war with America. We felt bad for the Austria Hungarian Empire because they were weak and needed our help so they gave us money to protect them.
When we got our economic points we spent them on navy and nothing else. The reason we spent them all on navy is so we could be strong.
We made treaties with Austria Hungarian Empire and Russia. The treaty we made with the Austria Hungarian Empire meant that if they gave us there economic points. We made a treaty with Russia stating that if they needed our help we would back them up in war and vice versa. We did not break any of the treaties that were made.
No i am not pleased with my country because we lost the game. We focused only on the navy and being stronger and we didn’t worry about anything else.
If i could change anything and do it differently than i would make an alliance with the USA and Russia. I do have a better understanding of diplomacy. I learned that you have to watch who you attack and who you become friends with. My country messed with the wrong country and lost. You have to be the strongest if you want to survive so you got to watch out for everyone.

Cost of living

My name is Will H an I’m in period 1. The cost of living has drastically changed. The reason the cost of living was so high was because the resources were being used to much and that made the cost of things go up. Also there weren’t many jobs because of the way the economy was. The economy was in like a depression almost, it wasnt doing very good. People couldn’t work so to the people the cost of living went up. The resources were being used way to much an just being wasted. The government tried to fix the high cost of living by trying to make things less expensive but because of how bad the economy was they couldn’t. The government tried making the sale price of stuff less but couldn’t afford it so they had to make the cost go up more than what it usually did and that’s why it didn’t work. Since the government couldnt get the economy back to were people were used to it they tried doing a economic reform which pretty much means in my words that they tried raising tax on things that you need. When they started taxing all these thing the cost of living went up. The cost of living went up because of the economy.
