Seeing
How History Changes
Most links place historical facts in a table so you can easily compare them. You are not memorizing all of the facts placed in these tables. Instead, you are using those facts to notice changes and patterns. To help you, most links provide tips on what to notice.

Events and Trends That Lead to the War – It is a
1-page visual that lets you take information from the textbook and consider
