A Broken World

I have seen the World War 1 begin until the end of World War two. This week as we studied about end of world war two, I noticed there were patterns of world war- like the patterns we saw in revolutions. Some reasons of the world wars were rivalry and intense tension among countries. World War 1 was like a little kindergarten kids having fight over “who had more (land)”, and World War 2 was like an ideology war like a fight over who had a better leaders, land, military powers, and a better society.

Things happen one after another like a domino. Treaty of Versailles “Treaty to end all wars”, has caused another war.- World War 2. Although after the two superpowers face off, are we really safe? Is World War 3 never going to exist?

For 2nd half of my blog, I’m just going to show you through pictures and experience I went through when I visited Hiroshima (where the atomic bomb dropped). Now that I have actually learned some history, I remembered I had some pictures I took in Hiroshima- so I decided to look back through them and notice how effective the invention of atomic bomb was and why people are in fear of such an invention.

These two pictures are actual models built in the peace museum. These two are before the war, notice how there are bridges, buildings and clean water do exist. After one single bomb, many people’s lives, home were all gone.

This picture above was the only standing building after the bomb. You can also find this building in the models.

There were many people dehydrated and radiated from this bomb. There were people searching for water- however even the water in the river were contaminated. It is inhumane, disgusting and brutal- imagine if you were alive then.
