I'm still pretty undecided as to my topic so I better get a move on. I know its probably overdone but I was thinking of doing something about the causes of WWI - obviously i'd have to refine it somewhat but there's a lot of info out there pertaining to the topic. That, or maybe Haig - Brilliant Commander or Blundering Butcher?

Nup, but I go to Grammar so maybe Gauntson mentioned it and i just regurgitated it. I knew people had done work on Haig, but I didn't think it was the exact same. Either way, I don't suppose you keep in contact with this guy?Acid said:
Acid said:Yeah I do but I doubt he'd send you his essay
I wasn't going to ask for the essay, i'm not that lazy. I was, on the otherhand, going to ask for some good sources that he used as that would put me on the right track.

well im stuck 2!! but ive got a few topics that seem intrestin..i guess u can work out a question from these topics coz theres a lot of controversy goin on about em.
**Princess Diana’s death - was she murdered?
**The Holocaust - did it really happen?
**Americas trip to the moon - was it a hoax?
**September 11 - a huge government coverup?
**UFOs - do they exist?
**Nelson Mandela’s past as a terrorist - still an evil?
**The seige of masada
**slavery in america - the african views on it
im thinkin of doin nelson mandela..because some of the others seem too recent for any historian views.
hope this helped

Nice to see we've got some conspiracy theorists among us . Or not....how can one argue the Holocaust didn't happen?
I'm working on colonialisation - how the Biritish empire ruled the world. I'm narrowing it down to a single country, probably.

well, im doing the romantiscm of cleopatra's death over time! i was stuck for a long time and have only decided indefinitely in the last 3 weeks! before i was goin to do polands involvement in world war 2 and why it has been discredited so much!
I hope this isn't too late.
I don't know if this has been pointed out or not, but please make sure you have access to some solid historical sources and historians. Some of my class mates dropped out last year because they simply went head first into their chosen topics. After several months and beyond the point of no return, they just gave up, the prime reason was simply that they can't find solid sources. Obvious or not, you guys should really spend a few weeks briefly researching your options and it's sources, then finalise your topics.
Oh yeah.. Anyone ancient people doing Hatshepsut, her riegn and relationship with Thutmose III? That's a bloody gold mine.

Is your teacher really strict and won't let you do it? Because usually teachers let you do topics that are in the syllabus if they know you aren't studying that.emo_chick said:
