Humanities Poll Project

Humanities Poll Project Umema Khan 9C

What we had to do In Humanities we were required to create 5 multiple choice questions on either, World War 1, The Great Depression or World War 2. I chose to do mine about World War 2 because of the fact that this topic interests me, also because this is what we learned about this most recently in Humanities, so it is still fresh in my mind. From these 5 questions we chose 1 to upload to a poll website to see how

World War II Basically World War 2 revolved around the Nazis and Hitler. It all started when a man called Hitler decided that Germany didn’t have to follow the Treaty of Versailles, and the other countries couldn’t penalize them that badly. The other countries were intimidated so Britain and France gave Germany exactly what they wanted (more land) hoping it would satisfy them, but then Germany made an unprovoked attack on Poland. Britain and France declared war on Germany after Hitler had refused to abort his invasion of Poland. And that’s how it began, everything was chaos from there.

Question 1 • The German army was very successful early in World War 2 because: • A) France had not built enough planes and tanks to handle the German army • B) Stalin Was A Military Genius • C) The used blitzkrieg tactics that totally overwhelmed countries they invaded • D) None of the Above

Question 2 How did the British people first find out some of Hitler’s tactics? • A) They sent an undercover spy to to spy on Hitler • B) Hitler wrote a book about them • C) Hitler wanted to unite with the Brits at first and told them his military tactics • D) He told all of the reporters from the newspaper so that people would be intimidated by him.

Question 3 How did Hitler get to be a leader of Germany? • A) By the power of speech • B) By killing anyone who didn’t vote for him • C) Just being a dictator, not asking anyone about if he should be leader or not • D) Other

Question 4 What is Fascism? A) A two party rule, People who believe in only peace and are highly against violence B) A one party rule , people who use violence to achieve objectives C) A one party rule, people who use violence if needed otherwise are neutral D) Other

The Question I chose for the Poll In his book, Hitler mentioned the most superior race, what was this race? • A) The Aryan Race • B) All Germans • C) The Jewish Race • D) The African Race

Why I chose this Question I chose to do this question because of the fact that this is a fact that many people do not know, and that makes it more challenging. I expected people to answer “All Germans” the most because they would know that Hitler was German.

What my question looks like on my poll Correct answer

Results of My Poll There is a total of 9 votes.

Where my Results came from One Vote came from the United States 8 of the 9 votes were from Qatar

Analysis of my Results This data basically tells us that the same number of people that thought that the “most superior race” was the Aryans thought that it was all of the Germans. It also shows that no one thought that according to Hitler African race was “most superior” also only one person thought that Jews were “most superior” in Hitler’s eyes. This really surprised me, because I thought that almost everyone knew that Hitler absolutely HATED the Jews for some very odd reason. Something that didn’t surprise me at all was the number of votes I got, this is because, I didn’t really advertise my poll that much, I only put it as mu mood message on Skype for about one day. I have noticed that people in Qatar mostly got the right answer whereas in America no one got the right answer, but since there was only one vote from the United States, so this kind of says that my pie chart isnt exactly very accurate. I think that if I were to advertise my poll more, I would have gotten more votes and therefore would have had more accurate data.
