Dear editor,
The terms in the Treaty of Versailles are unfair towards the new German Republic that is being created. We cannot allow these massive war reparations to be put on the treaty, it will cause political chaos in Germany. Not to mention poverty would be everywhere in the country, Germany has already spent enough money on its own during the war, they have nothing to pay us back! The downsizing of their military should also allow them to only protect themselves. Instead of shaming Germany, we should help reconstruct their nation and they could be allies in the future with democracies spreading in Europe. I fear the rise of communism like what happened in Russia during the war can happen in this new German democracy. Or even worse a party could grow in the country that will defy the treaty of Versailles! This is why we must be extremely careful with our terms of the treaty and use our victory wisely. The creation of the European Polish state is a bit extreme and will affect all those Germans living in that territory. Please take this into consideration as the Treaty of Versailles will choose the fate of Germany's future.

In the 1840s, the U.S was struck with the idea of <em>manifest destiny</em>. An idea that America should control North America from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean. Mexico had the legal right to Texas thus dominated California, Arizona, and New Mexico. Two territories stood in America's way of accomplishing the manifest destiny idea; first, the Oregon Territory that was occupied by both Great Britain and the United States and the Western and Southwestern areas owned by Mexico. The differences between the United States and Mexico over the border of Texas led to the Mexican American War that resulted in American gaining ownership of Arizona, California, New Mexico, and Texas. The ownership of these territories fulfilled the '<em>Manifest Destiny' </em>of the U.S stretching from the Atlantic to the Pacific, Manifest Destiny.
These are the main factors that led to the rise of Communism:
- The Communist Manifesto (1848). Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels' work directed towards the proletariat (workers) in a intent for them to rebel against the bourgeoisie that grew rich at their expenses.
- Russo-Japanese War (1904-1905). This fight over the imperial ambitions in Korea and Manchuria ended with multiple russian defeats and casualties that generated much discontent in the masses.
- Bloody Sunday. In January 1905, soldiers of the Imperial Guard, fired against unarmed demonstrators that were trying to present a petition to Tsar Nicholas II.
- 1905 Russian Revolution. As a direct consequence of the Russo-Japanese War and Bloody Sunday, waves of masses moved in discontent with the Imperial Government. Even though the Tsar kept in the throne, the Revolution led to the October Manifesto and the Russian Constitution of 1906.
- Vladimir Lenin. Lenin was the marxist intellectual who became the leader of the Bolsheviks, a radical group that became an important force in the Revolution.
- World War I. The unrest of the masses only grew with the administration of the Tsar and Russia's presence in World War I.
- 1917 Russian Revolution. Two massive revolutions happened in 1917: one in February, that resulted in the abdication of the Tsar and the collapse of the Imperial Government; and other in October that collapsed the Provisional Government, started the Russian Civil War and established the <em>Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic</em>.
