1. Nationalism Poster Project
Directions: In this activity, you will pretend that you are living in the late 1800s and early 1900s.  You have just become the leaders of countries.  Your nation has suffered through years of poor government, hard economic times, and disastrous wars.  You have decided to use nationalism to rally your discouraged people and raise the country to a level of respect, power, and leadership in world affairs. This goal can only be reached by getting people to be proud of their country, and convincing them that they should put their country ahead of their own self-interests.  You have a number of ideas in mind to achieve your objective.  There are also many important decisions that you must make regarding your nations' government, armed forces, foreign trade, system of taxation, etc...
