1. The Roman empire was at its largest in 117 after the death of the Emperor Trajanus (Trajan in English?). What factors enabled the size of the empire?
This was the easy first question.
This was the easy first question.
Yes, easy is definitely the adjective I would use to describe this.
My answer is 39, being 117 is after all a factor of 39 *nods*
4. There were two World Wars in Europe in the 20th century and nations underwent several internal conflicts. According to the interpretation of the British historian Paul Preston "the Spanish civil war was just one episode in the larger European civil war that ended in the 1945". How well can the events of the beginning of the 20th century be described as European civil war?
I would say not well since the US intervened in both wars and there was Japan and Italy in the second one. Plus who really counts Spain anyway. Did they even win any medals in the Olympics?
8. Conflicts that are claimed to be ethnic generally have political and economic reasons behind them and actually are not so much related to relationships between ethnic groups. Judge the accurateness of the claim on an area/country of your choosing that lies outside of Europe. From the 1950s to the present day.
I vote for the Civil Rights movement. That was ethnic wasn't it and I believe it was in the 60s. If that doesn't count then how about the Grunge movement of the 90s, dang dirty hippies
10.
a) Read the following quotes by Eduard Sevardnadzen, Margaret Thatcher and Helmut Kohl. Compare their opinions on the reunification of Germany.
b) What factors enabled the reunification of Germany, and what have been the effects of the reunification in Germany and Europe?

The Sham-Wow is made by Germans that's got to count for something, right?
No more history 
And in case you wonder, I have no point in posting this. Just think it's interesting.

Congrats and well done; giving up on history is missing out though, IMHO.
