Your answers should come primarily from lecture, no further research is required and the inclusion of material not covered in lecture will be frowned upon.

Essay 1: 100 points: Explain the Cold War. How did it start? What conflicts did it bring about? How did it end? Make this one good, this is the most important essay of your exam and should be substantial and detailed because it covers 1945-1989

Essay 3: 25 Points: How did the US respond to the attacks on 9/11? How did that response contribute to the current issues with ISIS?
