Franklein D. Roosevelt 1930s Leader
I believe FDR to be the most influentual leader of the 1930s because he always did what he thought was best for his people at that time. FDR was the man who created the New Deal that helped out the unemployed by reforming the economic systems and the banking systems. He created organizations such as Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation U.S. and the Securities and Exchange Commission. His efforts towards getting the U.S. and Europe out the depression were exceptional and this is why I think that he was the most influentual leader.

WWI Persona
I was ten years old when the war began. Being a child i am shielded from most of the scary details. Although my friends and I are protected, I vividly remembers my father taking wheat and bringing home flour. Since flour, sugar, rice, and coffee were scarce, the government confiscated it. When this war broke out I really do not understand what is happening, but I am really worried about my family and friends.

Unionization - Female Factory Worker
As a female factory worker I'm single and get to work full time. I don't get paid much as a female but I have more opprotunities than other women. I am not married and I dont have kids which allows me to spend less time at home than a woman that has kids. I do wish that I could get paid as much as men and that all women got treated fairly. My mom has to work out at the markets making barely any money at all, so many things are not fair but its better than it was.

The French Revolution
The Commoners or the Third Estate Grievanices:
- For every head to count.
Even though they out numbered the rest and would win every time it would only be fair because majority should rule.
- More power
For the same reason as above the Third Estate should be able to enact change because they carry the most people.
- Reform Needed
They wanted everything to be fair and by allowing the upper class to run everything is not fair to the people at all.
- Declared the National Assenbly of France
This is important to allow the majority of France's population to be important and obtain control like they wanted. It would take away from just one man calling all the shots for our country.
