Event Hall A - Castle Rock

Join Active Minds for a look at the origins and causes of "The Great War."

Our focus will be on understanding how the stage was set for war by a variety of forces, including military alliances, imperialism, nationalism, and failed diplomacy.  We will trace the seeds of conflict and examine how they played out, ultimately erupting into a war that involved most of the world and changed the face of history.
