A region is basically defined as a part of the country, or world, that is different or separate from others in some way. Regions can be identified by:
– Culture: Music, Language, Food, Holidays– Geography: Mountains, Deserts, Plains, Coastal lands– Wildlife: Animals, Insects, Plant life– Politics: People-made borders/boundaries/agreements.
• How is your state part of a region? Identify one example from each of the previous elements and explain its connection to the region.
• Example: People in Texas listen to country music like other people in the South.

OverviewOverview
• Eastern Europe is a region composed of many countries, stretching from the Baltic to the Black Sea.
• Each country has its own regional elements (culture, landforms, wildlife and politics).
• In the years before, during, and after World War II, (1939-1945) Eastern Europe underwent political domination by two powerful entities: Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia.

• Use the 4 political cartoons to create a summary paragraph of the relationship between the Nazis and Soviets.
• Once you have created your summary, predict how this relationship might have had an impact on the countries located between Germany and Russia.

Your Teachable Moment!Your Teachable Moment!
• Once you have filled in your elements for Hungary, you are to create a presentation to share with the class. Follow these guidelines:
– Pick a third Eastern European country that was under Soviet control by conducting a search on the internet. Check with me once you have picked your country in order to receive approval to further conduct your research.
– Label this country on your handout outline map.
– Create a PowerPoint to use with your presentation. The presentation must include all the elements found in the middle circle of the Venn Diagram (Culture, Geography, Politics, Occupation by Foreign Invaders, Influence of Invaders, Violence, Method of Resistance) as well as a map and title slide introducing the country.
– As you present this country to the class, provide examples of how this country’s experience compares (similar/different) to that of Estonia and Hungary. Your rubric is on the handout.
