IntroduCtIon

weLcome to BiLinguaL history …This book has been compiled to help you integrate History into your classroom.It is enriched material in English to accompany “Genial! Geschichte 4“.We are sure the children will benefit from using this book, not only to introduce them to some English terminology but also to anchor their knowledge of the subject they are learning in German at the same time.

This book is designed to be flexible. Pages are topic-based and the basic information is high-lighted in a square. Activities for the children follow, enabling them to immerse themselves in the subject matter. New vocabulary is provided at the bottom of each page. Furthermore, you can find a complete glossary at the end of the book. The activities can also be used in partner and pair work as well as in open learning.

We also hope that these activities will open up more possibilities of using English in the His-tory lesson. Artefacts can be drawn and labelled, children can compile their own word grid and crosswords for the class or for their friends. Discussions in English on various topics can be arranged in class as the basic information is now available in English. Children can make their own games, using information in the book, such as domino or memory. Even board games are now possible. Posters can be made and displayed.

As English has become such an important language for Austria (inter-cultural learning now knows no bounds thanks to the computer and the Internet) we hope we have been of service in offering you this book.

We wish you lots of fun using it.

the World In ConflICt after 1945

the coLd war Begins

The first step: At the end of the Second World War, in August 1945, the Americans dropped a new kind of bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki – two Japanese cities. This was the very first nuclear bomb. It was more destructive than any other bomb previously1 known. Both cities were destroyed and about 200,000 people killed! Now the world had a new and terrible weapon and so the “arms race” between the two superpowers began.Second step: By 1949 Europe was divided in two and the Americans and Russians began the “Cold War“. They opposed each other with spies2, alliances3, trading boycotts4 and local wars. The frontier between the West and the East became known as the “Iron Curtain”5.The United States and the Soviet Union were looked upon as the superpowers who domi-nated Europe. However, they were both very different cultures with different ideals. The Soviet Union felt threatened6 by the American presence in Europe and the United States feared that the Soviet Union wanted to control more of Eastern Europe than they did.

the soviet union and its sateLLite states

Since 1924 Joseph Stalin ruled as a dictator. He took the land from the people to form gov-ernment-run farms. He also built up industry, railways and the electric power system. After the war the USSR gained control1 over much of Eastern Europe – either by forcing2 countries to become Soviet republics or by controlling the governments. These were known as “satel-lite states”. The people in these countries were not allowed to travel to the west without special permission3 (often having to leave a family member as security in their own coun-try). There were virtually4 no luxury goods and the Trabant (a cheap car) was driven. Even after Stalin’s death in 1953, Soviet life was dominated by the “Cold War” and remained5 so for a long time.

1946: Hungary, Albania and Bulgaria become “people’s republics”.1947: Romania becomes a “people’s republic”.1948: USSR seizes power in Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria and Poland.

What can you find out about these former satellite states of the Soviet Union? Do they still exist today? An encyclopedia or the Internet can help you.

communism spreads1

As communism spread to most eastern European countries, it also spread to other parts of the world. Mao-Tse-tung and his communist party took over China, changing the country dramatically – similarly to the way things changed in the USSR. War broke out in Asia – in Korea in 1950 and in Vietnam, where a bloody war lasted from 1954 to 1973. Here again, the USA supported2 South Korea and South Vietnam whereas China and the USSR supported North Korea and North Vietnam. Conflicts arose3 between the two “superpowers”, in the Middle East, Africa and South America.

Using the above text to help you, now answer the following questions.

1. Name two Asian countries where war broke out. 2. Name the communist Chinese leader. 3. To which political party did he belong? 4. Name two other places where conflicts between the two superpowers arose. 5. Did communism spread to Eastern or Western Europe?
