Don't know for sure. But you may as well give it a lash! In our fifth year summer tests we had to write about Butt, my friend hadn't a clue so she went on and on about his alcoholism and how it affected his life. She somehow ended up getting a decent enough grade!

butt was a gambler, not a drinker as far as i know so thats fairly generous alright

shoutman

I'm so screwed this is what I know
Section A Davitt
Section B First inter party government
Section C 3rd french republic + causes of world war 1
Section D Spanish Civil War

Didn't do that essay but did creation of Totalitarian state, more or less the same I think?

Inrto:

Fascism fulfilled a need in Germany
Recently united,needed to assert nationalism
Sucess dpended on failure of democracy
Weimar- failed
Hitler called gov November criminals for acceptin Versaille
Opposed any form of democracy
Born in Austria, middle class parents
Got German citizenship fighting in WWI
Joined German Workers Party
Opposed Jews and Communists
1920 head of party
Gift of oratary
widespread support from business people
1920 party became knpwn as National Socialist German Workers Party
Otherwise known as Nazi party

How Hitler consolidated Power in the Lean Years:

Drew able men to his side for putch
Goering, Hess and Goebbels who became Minsiter for Propaganda
Himmler Chief of Nazi police, Rohm leader of the SA
Military bodyguard for Hitler
Swastika, straight arm salute, Brownshirts
After Munich Putch learned value of ballot box
Mein Kampf in prison
Outlined need for Lebensraum, Anti-Semitic
Wall St Crash, Nazis offered employment and leadership
107 seats in 1930
Visual propaganda
Slogans
1932 230 seats
Hidenberg made him Chancellor 1933

Brown/Nazi Revolution:

Nazi Rev was to transform Germany
Impoverished, divided democracy to prosperous, united dictatorship
Reichstag fire excuse to ban Communists
Pogroms
Decree for the Protection of people and the state
Gave the Reich emergency powers
Arrest on suspicion, no trials, concentration camps
Enabling Act- could pass laws without consulting Reich
Trade uninos replaced with DAF
Applied to industry
Eliminated Rohm when he feared being overthrown
Night of Long Knives
President after death of Hindenberg
Fuhrer 1934
Beginning of 3rd Reich

Economy:

6 mill unemployed when Hitler came to power, 2.5 1936, almost non existent 1939
National Labour service-emplyed ppl for public works
WAnted Ger self sufficient in Agri and Ind
Develpoment of Volkswaogon
Slum clearance, house building
Reihnhard- road and rail
However food imports increased
Hit solution was to get Russian land for food
Needed arms
"German misery must be broken with German steel"
Lebensraum neede to achieve Autarky or economic self suffciency

Propaganda, Education and Anti-Semitism

Most important ministry was Propaganda, set up 1933
Olympics 1936 opp to show off Ger
Anxious to show superiority of Aryan race
Goal was to " Educate the millions who do not yet in their hearts belong to us"
Education was to instill unquestioning obedience
Teachers in Nazi Teachers League
Master race theory replaced religion in many schools
Physical ed more important than academia
Woman's role in home
Youth Leagues- Hitler Youth, Little Fellows, League of German Maidens
Jews enemies
Blamed for all Germany's probs
Dominatioon of life inWEimardisgusted him
50% of dotors and lawyers Jews in Berlin
1933 removeed from civil service, medical, legal teaching professions
1935 nuremberg Laws
1938 spoke of Final Solution

Catholic Church

National Socialism alternative to religion
Christianity little place in Hitler's tot state
1933 Concordat with Pope
German Cath feeedom of religion
Priests and Bishops to keep out of politics and swear allegiance to Naxis
Gradually, freedoms eroded
Protestant Church linked to state but not united
Merged them into one Reich Church, bishop Muller in charge
Bishops who onjected sent to concentration camps
Churches failed to respond to Nazism, adoptd survival tacits
Internal threats to Hitler impossible due to ruthlessness of SA and SS
THreats came from army and Kreisau Circle of intellectuals
Attempted to assassinate H, Staffen Berg bombs, failed
Hitler rose from the doss houses of Vienna to become master of Europe
Domination of German Workers Party and of the Masses brought him to power 1933
Nazis had no political or military experiencw
Political rivals hoped he would ruin himself by mismanagement and this he was to do.

Sorry about any typos!

I think you guys are missing someone.

Section A: I'm thinking that it'll actually Be John Redmond's turn on the paper. He hasn't been on in many a year (unlike Parnell and Davitt) and was hotly tipped by more than one history teacher in my school.


As far as everything else goes.....I'm ditching my four essay per section plan, and going for two EXTREMELY well learnt essays, and two 'story' types (eg lose the figures, lose the precise dates, bring in more explanation of motives, and discussion of actions). I spent too long cramming biology last week, and I'm left with no choice.

I have this gem of a little history book which was less than €10. It covers the average essay in two pages. It's brilliant if used with another history book. It's called "Concise Leaving Cert History" by Thomas Kingston. It's published by Solas Publications.

Best book ever, I'm flaad, our history teacher was ****e handed us a gigantic bundle of essays just before the pres written in his appauling handwriting for us to decipher, gave us no tips and we've only ever written the questions we had to write for our xmas summer exams and pre's. he gave us a special topic which we were told to learn off(we weren't allowed to decide ourselves in the lucky dip i got "sinn fein the father of irish democracy" which is gonna make me come accross as some f*ckin armchair rahead) some people might say its an advantage we didnt have to do work, i would have loved to do it myself but due to him being a general lazy c*nt who didn't inspire us to work at all for the last 2 years and now i'm flaad.
incidently i've done
1. Davitt, cultural nationalism,, constructive unionism
2. inter party gov, dismantling the treaty, devs economic policies
3. 3rd republic, weimar germany(comes up in 4 as well) either eastern q or causes of ww1 in a cramming session 2 mo morning
4.mussolini, weimar, hitler (stalin 2 moro morn)
5. stupid aforementioned specialist topic
Good luck to all

randomfella

lmao about coming across as an armchair rahead!!

I did cathal bruhga ffs 'an unrepentant republican'!?!

Wish i didn't have to do business so i could cram 2moro. I learned 2 essays before my mocks. it only started at 1. so i had time 2do 2 practically new essays to me in that time. I reckon i could scrape a2 if everything came up. But it won't so B2 what i got in the mocks.
