POSSIBLE ESSAYS
Which was the greatest crime of WWII: the Rape of Nanking, aerial bombing, internment of Japanese-Americans, the Holocaust, or the use of the atomic bomb? Your answer should include descriptions of the suffering incurred by each, and should then explain why it is the worst or why it isn't the worst.

Until the Battle of Britain, Hitler's rise from the Nazi Party leader in the 1920s through the near-complete control of Europe by 1940 was unstoppable. But at what point do you think Hitler realized that he was invincible in that stretch? In your essay, you must outline the rise to power both within Germany and throughout Europe, both politically and militaristically. Ultimately, you must decide on the event that made Hitler realize that he had control of the continent and explain why it is the one.
