WW1 Lesson Plan Journal: Bulgaria 5

Bulgaria 5 1913

Today Bulgaria allied with Germany and Austria- Hungary. The thoughts going through this were allying with them while they take over territories of Russia and invade them. At this time I have decided to not get to involved until I can officially  announce my alliance with the two countries. I have not done any movement with troops because I stand at 0 with mobility  at this time because I believe Bulgaria hasn’t officially come into Wold War 1. My plans are to stay neutral until 1916, as that it one of my objectives I am to complete. My plans are then too go after Greece, Montenegro, and Serbia to take back some of my original territory. I am still undecided on how to get my original territory back from Ottoman Empire because Germany and Austria-Hungary are also allied with them.
Bulgaria 5 1914
Today Bulgaria layer low out of the war just observing what is going on around it. Germany had taken over part of Russia, and Austria and Bulgaria are planning there attack on Serbia. We are unsure on how were going to do it though. Bulgaria will be ready at any moment after 1915 to attack and be prepared when attacked.

Bulgaria 5 1915
Bulgaria just recently announced their alliance with Austria- Hungary. With the public alliance it turns Bulgaria into a central power. Being a central power we are getting closer and closer to being able to attack Serbia. There was a little problem though when France moved some of their troops into Serbia to protect them from war. We have decided to get help from Germany as well so we will have even more troops. After we hopefully defeat serbia I plan to ask help from other countries to help with Greece to regain my original territory there as well.

Bulgaria 5 1916
Today was a good day for Bulgaria. They attacked Serbia with Romania, germany, and Austria- Hungary. They were successful, and Bulgaria decided to keep there troops in Serbia to keep control of that area. Bulgaria also plans on attacking Greece when we get control of the area around us. I will fail in taking back my region from the Ottoman Empire because they are much bigger with more troops and a higher rating so I wold lose all of my troops. I also let Ottoman move soldiers into my land as they plan on attacking Romania and taking them over before they betray us and take back R3. Although I am not allied with Ottoman or Romania I will help Ottoman because I am allied with germany and Austria which are allied with Ottoman. I am also a central power and should honor the other central powers. I do not trust Romania either because of the alliance sheet he ripped up the first day.

Bulgaria 5 1917
Today Bulgaria layer back a little as well. In the beginning of class Bulgaria let Ottoman Empire pass through the land so they could go and attack Romania. That was a success for Ottoman. The central powers agreed with Ottomans actions because we feared he was going to turn on us. That was exactly his plans, he came over to the central powers so he could get information from us on what our plans were. At this point with only one more day I do believe Bulgaria will not be able to complete two objectives due to small amount of troops and small ratings. I would try but I am 100% sure I would fail without help. I would not get help because everything up in Germany and Austria are way to hectic to come down and help without getting taken over. Central powers also discussed taking over France while they lost many troops and have moved them out. They plan on taking they’re troops from Belgium and attacking. I moved my soldiers back to Bulgaria but decided to move back to Serbia so we don’t lose control of that area. So we moved them back and mobilized so we had more troops back in Bulgaria.

Bulgaria 6 1918
Bulgaria had a good ending with the central powers. Bulgaria tried attacking Greece with Ottoman empire I took in 200 troops while Ottoman took in 300 troops. We would have defeated them but unfortunately France came in with some troops and won the battle in Greece. As it was the last day the central powers i believe won, barely but still won. Bulgaria succeeded with most of it’s objectives but about one. The one objective was to regain area from Ottoman empire but the would have lost me it all.

WW2 Simulation Journal: Great Britain 3

WW2 Simulation
Great Britain 3 1938
Today was a little confusing but after asking a few questions and reading through our binder a little more, we are starting to understand it a little more. Great Britain  plans to give the US some rubber hoping that it might be the beginning of an alliance between the two countries. This excites us because we NEED an alliance with the US.

Great Britain 3 1939
Today after the Soviet Union cut off their oil transport to Germany and the US cut of their oil transportation to Japan, we knew this was the beginning of a good alliance with both countries. After Poland was attacked, Great Britain felt kind of bad that we couldn’t help but Poland knew they had no chance considering they were being attacked by Germany and none of their allies could get there to help. We decided it would be in our best interest to try and defeat the Japanese navy while we can and before they gain more land/power. We also have plans to funnel some troops from Great Britain to France so when they are attacked by Germany, we are prepared to fight back and be Victorious!

Great Britain 3 1940
Today we followed through with our plan and attacked the Japanese navy and weakened them as much as we could. We thought that by doing this, they would be a lesser threat to Great Britain’s Navy. I think this might have helped us a little bit it didn’t make a HUGE difference in the simulation.

Great Britain 3 1941
Today we lost Belgium because it was impossible to protect ourselves from Germany and Italy. Fortunately for us, Japan has attacked the Pearl Harbor which means the US is officially entering the war. All we have to do now is protect as much of France as we can since we are allied and we have a reliable, accessible place to store our troops.

Great Britain 3 1942
Both Ben & I were gone so we weren’t able to do much strategizing but Allied countries as a whole did some strategizing and decided that it would benefit us to not declare war and just move the Great Britain’s navy over near Great Britain so we could move more troops into France (F3) because they thought (and were right) that Germany was going to attack (F3). Since one of our objectives is to remain loyal to France, I was happy with the decision they made while Ben & I were gone.

Great Britain 3 1943
Today didn’t go our way at all. Ben and I feel as if we’ve already lost the war because there is no way we can take out Japan, Germany, or Italy since they are way more more powerful than us. The USSR lost a lot of their troops today which mean that the US and Great Britain are pretty much the only countries left with valuable troops. At this point, if Japan attacks our navy, we’re screwed.

Great Britain 3 1944
The only troops we have at this point are the troops we have stationed in F3. We don’t think war is a good idea for us right now so we plan to use our navy to help the US mobilize. And to put a cherry one the cake, good ole’ Italy took over Iran today and took the resources we had there. We attempted to fight back but we had no navy in that area and we only had 50 troops in Iran. This is extremely frustrating because we feel stupid that we didn’t even see that coming so we weren’t prepared what so ever.
Great Britain 3 1945
Ben and I feel that we should have gotten more done in the beginning of the war. The USSR didn’t help us as much as we thought they would and they also were nearly as powerful as we thought they were either.  This really irritates me because i hate loosing, obviously.

WW2 Simulation Journal: Germany 4

 

Period 4_Chelsea BonSchmit_Germany
1938

Today is the first day for Germany. We
have set up a plan to take over Poland. We are taking them over
because they have a surplus amount of coal, 17.5. We also wanted to
cut off Norway and Sweden resources from any country. Tomorrow is
going to be a successful day.

Germany 1939

Today we had a victorious day. We took
over P1in Poland with 600 troops. We also made an alliance with
Romania. They have a very good oil resource so we figured they would
be a good alliance. Also they are by the Black Sea so we are able to
transportation resources. We also attacked Denmark with 2000 troops
and was victorious. We attacked Belgium, but they France and Germany
helped them so they were victorious and we lost all of those troops.
We also attacked the Netherlands and we won once again. I wonder if
the Allies are scared of us yet. The Netherlands don’t have very good
resources but they are by the Baltic Sea which gives us a great
advantage to take over Sweden and Norway. We also attacked Belgium
once again and this time we were victorious once again. We are
sweeping theses countries right and left. We also gave our alliance,
Italy some coal.We also sent 160 troops into Sweden by Navy, won!
Today was a successful day. We will see what tomorrow brings. Hope it
is just as successful!

Germany 1940

Today was a
successful day. We didn’t attack as much as we did yesterday. We
thought that we would say on the down low today. The other countries
need to recover from our victorious day yesterday. We are allies with
Japan and they took over the main rubber supplies. She promised us
she would send some resources over. Hopefully she keeps her promise
and sends some. If she does that we will have a dominate supplies of
resources. We took over Sweden and got their source of Iron Ore. Our
next step is to take over the USSR either through Poland or take over
Finland through Sweden. With taking over the USSR we meet our
objective and get a good resource of oil. Tomorrow shall be a
victorious day!

Germany 1941

Today we took Over
F1 in France. This was half of one of our objectives. Our next plan
is take over the USSR. We attacked North USSR. We were successful! We
also attacked Belarus which was another objective. I think today was
a good day we only lost one battle and it was Estonia. Estonia wasn’t
a really much of a loss. They had no resources we could use so it was
a useless battle. We also attacked Ukraine. With having North USSR,
Belarus, and Ukraine we have about half of the USSR. Hopefully
tomorrow we can take over the rest of USSR.

Germany 1942

Today our plan
demolished! We tried taking over North Central, Central USSR, and
Southern USSR and we lost! This is a very bad day also because Italy
went with the allies. Since they are with the allies that makes us
not have any access to the Adriatic Sea or West Mediterranean. Since
Italy joined the Allies we also lost resources like coal and iron
ore. We were suppose to help Italy keep their northern Africa safe
but we couldn’t. In all today was one of the worst days we have had.
We won no battles, lost Italy. Nothing could get any worse.

Germany 1943

We finally won
Caucasus. They have a lot of oil its unbelievable. The oil strength
for them is 11. That was a good accomplishment. We thought since we
have Caucasus we can take over Urals no problem. Nope, we lost. We
also got Finland but they have nothing useful. It was like free land
there and we took it over. Today was a very quiet day and we didn’t
do much. We figured we needed time to step back from the bad day we
had yesterday.

Germany 1944

Allies are
victorious in taking over belgium

Austria was tooken
over and we moved troops in Austria

Allies took over
G1

Allies took over
Finland

We are getting
defeated more and more. We NEED to defend our G1 territory in
Germany. That is the only territory most important to us. The allies
were very victorious and took over so much of Germany’s territories.
They took over Belgium, Finland and they took G1. G1 was the one
territory we wanted to keep and they took it over. We kept about a
good 3,000 troops in there to keep the territory but they were
successful. They had troops from France, Great Britain, and United
States to take us over. I think we are defeated. We have a little
more than 200 troops left to defend with.

Germany 1945

We have been taken
over. We tried taking free territory that was open in USSR and they
eventually took it over. We thought we would win this war but we
didn

WW1 Lesson Plan Journal: Japan and Romania 5

Countries: Romania & Japan. Period: 5. Year:1913

Romania: I must stay neutral until 1916, BUT I have currently started to talk to Russia for protection. I have reason to believe that Bulgaria has a made a secret alliance with the Ottoman Empire. The reasoning behind this is as follows. I think the Ottoman empire is going to travel through Bulgaria to capture Romania and possibly Greece and eventually Russia. BUT I have a plan, I did not mobilize today for some reasons. Reason number one is that I want evoke Ottoman empire to come after me and and I want them to THINK that I will not put up much of a fight. Tomorrow I will mobilize and get Russia to take on A3, heck I might do it myself, (That won’t take long) then if the Ottoman empire will do what I think they will do they will have boots on deck in Bulgaria. And while they are moving troops, I will try and get Russian troops moving through A3 into Serbia and eventually invading Bulgaria to where we can take on the Ottoman empire on their own turf.

Japan: There is not much to do, in the next couple days I will take back the German Colonies in Asia. I am hoping I will get Great Britain to help my navy choke out Bulgaria with the help of Serbia. My navy will sit in the Black Sea Zone off the coast of Bulgaria while part of Great Britain’s navy will sit in the Aegean Sea Zone off the coast of Bulgaria to discourage the Germany’s U-boats from moving in and helping the Ottoman empire out. While Romania’s troops take out Bulgaria. I am really counting on Russia to take on the Ottoman Empire out, if they don’t, every plan I have made, will go up in smoke.

Countries: Romania & Japan. Period: 5. Year:1914
Romania: I mobilized today, I went from 290 troops to 590 troops, that shocked me at first. But hey, more the merrier. Alright down to business, Russia was attacked (R3). I could not do anything because I have to stay neutral till 1916. I am terrified that I will be attacked before then. I have one more year to go till I can do anything. In the meantime I plan on making a fake alliance with Austria-Hungary so I won’t be attacked. But when 1916 comes around, I’m gonna lay the hammer down and anyone who messes with me will perish. I am reluctant to take over A3, If I do Germany may move 600 troops into A3 and take out my whole force. I think it is a good idea to just stay put for awhile.

Japan: There is still not much to do here. Russia was attacked by the Central powers and Russia lost R3. Tomorrow I will be taking back German colonies in Asia. I had moved my Navy into Dardanelles Straight in attempt to discourage anyone to help the Ottoman Empire move troops. But in reality I have the worst navy, but I still walk around like I own the place. That could get me into a lot of trouble if I’m not careful. They key to winning a war is; Act like you aint afraid of anyone, have really big countries with really big armies have your back, and walk around like you own the place.

Countries: Romania & Japan. Period: 5. Year:1915
Romania: Russia fell today. The only strong counties left are Ottoman Empire, Germany, and France. I have decided to to ally with The Ottoman empire for one reason, they were closing in and I want my country to stay in this for as long as possible. They have also asked me to take over Serbia. I agreed. But at the last second I am going to attack them as an attempt to defy them, but that will end badly for me. I only hope my counter parts will have the strength to fight them and win this war. So far, nothing has ever gone to plan, but I am determined to get under their skin, and make them mad as humanly possible. On the upside of Russia falling, it will be easier for me to get my land back. Gotta stay optimistic I guess.

Japan: I have not moved from the straight, there is nothing for me to do with my small navy unfortunately. One thing I have done today was get German colonies in Asia taken back. So that’s a plus. Other then that, not much else to talk about.

Countries: Romania & Japan. Period: 5. Year:1916
Romania: Today I got to choose I a side. I am currently allied with Central powers

WW2 Simulation Journal: United States 3

WW2 Simulation

WW2 Simulation

Today we were informed on the troubles
in Europe. Germany is getting hungry for land and France and the USSR
are right in their path. We are supposed to stay neutral until we are
attacked. When attacked we will try to wipe out the Axis powers.

United States 1939

The USSR and France have been supplied
with natural resources that they need. The USSR has attacked Eastern
Poland and Germany attacked Western Poland. Germany then attacked
Eastern Poland and took it away from the USSR. The USSR didn’t like
that but hasnt joined the Allies officially, but they are leaning
towards their side. We still are in isolation and are staying out of
the war physically. However we are helping out the Allies with ideas
where to send troops and where to attack. For right now, we aren’t
going to get involved.

United States 1940

Everything is still the same with us
in the United States of America. We are still uninvolved with the war
physically. However, things aren’t looking good for the Dutch East
Indies. It seems as though they have been taken over by the Japanese.
Great Britain is sending troops over to weaken the Japanese troops
occupying the territory, but their efforts don’t do too much except
weaken the Japanese army. All I am hoping is that the Japanese
doesn’t attack the Philippines because they are no match for the
Japanese’s navy or their army.

United States 1941

This was a big year for the Allies. I
was attacked by the Japanese navy at Pearl Harbor causing me to lose
all my naval troops in the Pacific. I have announced that I am
joining the Allied forces and mobilized my troops. GB is still
pumping troops into the Dutch East Indies and is also sending some
of their own troops to defend France. We have lost some Eastern
territories to Germany including Northeast France, Belgium, Denmark
and Netherlands. China is reinforcing its Eastern territories with
its troops with the help of Great Britain’s colonial troops. They are
there for defense and attack, in case the time comes.

United States 1942

Italy has taken over all of Africa and
is moving East to take over more land. Germany and Italy keep sending
more troops into France to try and take over Southeastern part of
France and the Western shore of France. They are losing a lot of
troops by doing this because the Allies’s naval fleet keeps sending
in troops from Great Britain to knock down the amount of troops
Germany has. Germany shows no signs of attacking the USSR. On the
Eastern side of the world, Japan has lost a significant amount of
troops after China and Great Britain’s colonial troops attacked them.
The USSR attacked Manchukuo with 3500 troops but still somehow lost.
I was sure that they would’ve won but it doesn’t matter, Japan lost a
lot of troops after that battle.

United States 1943

We are losing France and Great Britain
has given up due to their loss of troops, and I’ve pretty much been
put in charge to be the savior of the Allies. I don’t like the idea
but I have no other choice but to go along with it. Italy is plowing
through all of Great Britain’s troops in the Middle East. Germany has
wiped out all of the USSR’s troops in belarus and Ukraine. The
USSR is now getting paranoid that they will completely take her over
with the help of Japan. Speaking of Japan, they have taken over all
of Asia. They only have 1 unit of troops in a few of the Chinese
territories so that will be easy to take back, but that’s only if we
can get troops over their in time. We plan on taking out the Japanese
navy next year with the help of Great Britain and the Netherlands’s
navy.

United States 1944

More and more of the USSR is being
taken over by the Axis. We are still holding strong in France;
Germany hasn’t taken it completely over. I have a lot of troops stuck
in the US because we don’t have the amount of navy to pull them out.
Italy has moved further into the Middle East and will keep moving
until they run out of troops. We successfully took out the Japanese
navy leaving about 250 troops stuck on the Japanese mainland. With
the absence of a navy, Japan wasn’t able to stop us from taking the
Dutch East Indies. As each year passes, the Axis lose more and more
troops. However, it doesn’t seem like we will have enough time to
take back everything from the Axis powers. The rest of the Allies
look to me for the answer to all the problems all the time and blame
me for not being able to get my troops out of the US, but its not my
fault. Just because I’m the only one with troops left doesn’t mean I
can do anything to stop the Axis. Time is a big problem. I just don’t
have enough time to get my troops over. If I did, I feel like we
could easily sweep out all of the Axis troops out of Europe.

United States 1945

There wasn’t much we could do on the
Eastern side except weaken Japan but this late in the game it doesn’t
do much. Japan has taken over all of Asia and some of the USSR. On
the Western side however, we are pumping 700+ troops at a time into
France; keeping out of the hands of those filthy Nazis. I was able to
spread a rumor to the Germans that Italy was going to switch to the
Ally side. It was quite a humorous thing, I’d have to say, because
Germany then attacked Italy with a few troops. Germany pushed further
into the USSR taking out most of their troops. So as this simulation
concludes, it looks like the Allies have failed to stop the Axis
powers.

Additional Notes: I feel like
this simulation was the hardest for me because all the other leaders
looked to me for help but there wasn’t much that I could do to help.
I didn’t want to control their armies because its not my job to be in
control of them. Joey even called me the totalitarian dictator for
the Allies because I was calling all the shots. I’m not saying I
didn’t like being in control, I love being in control, but its a lot
of pressure for me .

Signed,

WW1 Lesson Plan Journal: United States 5

1913

Today I just sat back and let everyone do there thing. I am trying to think of ways to get my troops to europe when I get them.  I was thinking that I could use Great Britain’s (Logan) fleet to help get them across the pond, but I talked to Logan and he said he could send what he had that was not engaged already. Now for the next couple days I will just let Europe start tearing themselves apart and I am just going to watch.

1914
Today I watched Europe tear themselves apart. I really didn’t do a whole lot. I stayed neutral and I talked with both sides.  As this goes on it is making me really mad that I can’t do anything!

1915
This year was full of a bunch of shit but I couldn’t join in the fight because that would go against my objectives. I have made deals to get France and Great Britian’s  navy to be in america by the end of 1916. I can not wait until I can join this thing because all of the allies are looking to GB’s leader to come up with a scheme and this certain leader is clueless. Once I join the war it will be “I’m america now do what I say and we will win!” For goodness sake this is war you do not pass on a time to take out another area just because you don’t want to yet!

1916
This year I just made sure my plan would work for getting all of my people over to europe. I plan to send everyone strait for G1 and A1 right away tomorrow. I want to just bull rush them and hopefully win and if not try again.

1917
I finally joined the war and I did the plan and I lost. I can’t believe that I outnumbered them by that much and still lost. I really think I should’ve done the math. I plan to do the exact same thing tomorrow and pray it works. If I decide to change plans i may take over russia because there are like no troops there.

1918
I sent everyone strait for G1 just like I had planned and I lost all of my troops.  I really should’ve done the math to find out I could’ve even one but I didn’t. I really just didn’t care if I lost everyone though because if I cut Germany’s army down like I did then I thought that great Britain would send everyone to to G1 and take out everyone who was left, but they didn’t do that. I held up my side of the plan but Great Britain didn’t hold up there side of it. I really think if they would’ve hit Germany right after me we could’ve beat Germany at least.

Germany – 3 – 1938 (Monday)
With an analysis of the map of Europe and Asia, the president Joey and I have a good idea of what we want to do right away. There are several objectives on our list, so we decided to get planning right away so we could take action when the time came. We first made sure we knew who our clear allies were, so we could exchange ideas and common objectives to work toward together, because one less ally could make the difference in a war like this. We put our ratings and resources into consideration, helping form short and long terms goals we wanted to achieve. We also tried putting ourselves in the enemy

HistorySimulation.com
USSR 4 1938
I have that Nazi-Soviet Pact with Germany so that might keep me safe for a couple of days. I don’t trust the leader though. I’ll see how the first couple of years go though. I’ve already talked to Great Britain and China. As soon as Germany attacks me (and we know they eventually will) we are going ally with them.
USSR 4 1939
Germany still hasn’t attacked the USSR. I think he’s going to do it next. We both conquered Poland which means I don’t have a barrier between them anymore. Japan and I talked and she is thinking that I am going to ally with her. She thinks I’m going to go against Great Britain and China. What she doesn’t know is that I told Great Britain and China what she is planning to do.
USSR 4 1940
Germany attacked my part of Poland which means I joined with the Allies. China is slowly getting taken over by Japan. I’m planning to help China by attacking them from the top and slowly working my way down. I’m also slowly moving troops down through China to attack from the front side also.
USSR 4 1941
Germany is slowly taking over the USSR on the west side. There is nothing I can really do right now, those troops aren’t very strong. I took over Manchukuo from the North and she sent troops from NC China to help. That leaves an easy window to attack NC China. She can’t do much because she doesn’t have much troops. No one can help me on the west though because there is no one there to help. At least we might have a chance now that the United States has joined the war.
USSR 4 1942
Germany reached Central, now all that I have left in the west is 400 wimpy troops in Urals. Great Britain, China, and I are going to move troops from South China to Siberia. We just want to take out the last of the Japan troops in China. I’m getting nervous about Germany attacking me and I don’t have any troops to defend my land. Here’s a new twist of events, Italy joined the allies. Great Britain, Italy, and the United States are going to move troops into France.
USSR 4 1943
Japan took over my Eastern USSR, now all I have between the two Axis Powers is Siberia and Urals. Germany stopped attacking me from that side now though. He has most of his troops in the capital. The rest are spread out throughout the other countries that he has taken over. The United States, Italy, and Great Britain are still moving troops into France. I think they are going to try and take over Germany eventually, hopefully soon. Great Britain, China, and I are moving are troops up to Siberia as fast as we can.
USSR 4 1944
Today Belgium got taken over by the Allies. They are going to attack Germany finally. If they destroy Germany this war will finally be over. There might be a few little battles, but they can’t do much. We finally got our troops into Siberia so Japan can’t take over that. I don’t know what we are planning to do. I guess we are going to try and get our original territory back. I don’t know if I will have enough time to get all of it back, but I will try and get most of it back.
USSR 4 1945
I tried to get my territory back. I got two more territories back. I’m glad I had Great Britain and the Allies to help me. We defeated Germany and no one else could really conquer the rest of us. Japan took their territory back, but that was ok. I’m just glad the war is finally over.

WW1 Lesson Plan Journal: Austria-Hungary 5

Austria Hungary 5 1913 Journal:

Alliances:                        Threats:
Allied with Ottoman Empire,            Serbia and Russia pose
Italy, and Bulgaria.                    a great threat, and their
Weary of Ottoman Empire,                ally France
and unsure where
Bulgaria’s head is.

Immediate Plan of Attack:
First, I plan to help Germany and Ottoman Empire attack and take over Russia,
after this Serbia will be cut off from their only ally and will be defenseless.
So, I will work with Bulgaria to take over Serbia, because they attacked
and killed a leader of my country. I have deceived Serbia into thinking
that I would like to negotiate to create peace between our countries, this
is not the case.

Fears:
I am very fearful that France will get involved with the war in Russia;
however, the Central Powers have allied with Italy so HOPEFULLY
Italy will not let the French through their territory. Bulgaria is allied
with Romania, which is allied with Russia. I am very fearful to
discuss any concrete plans with Bulgaria because I fear they may
be double crossing us. I also fear that Germany will get wrapped
up into a navy battle with Great Britain and will be so distracted
that they will be useless to me.

Additional Thoughts:
I have figured that Russia will immediately go for the Ottoman Empire
United States will most likely ally with the Allies
Serbia has left me without an heir, so I will completely destroy them,
and if Russia tries to get in my way I will take them out as well.
As far as I’m concerned, I have no more options but to go out with
a bang. First, Serbia. Next, THE WORLD.

Austria Hungary 5 1914 Journal:

Alliances:                        Threats:
No additional alliances                France still poses a great
were made today                    threat, worried about
Serbia taking action

Immediate Plan of Attack:
Central Powers took over one portion of Russia today. I spread my
troops out across my land to deter enemies from attacking.

Fears:
I am fearful that France and Great Britain will move their troops into
Germany, distracting us from the war with Russia/Serbia. I am
fearful that Bulgaria will turn their back on us. I am fearful that
Serbia is going to attack, hopefully Bulgaria will assist if Serbia
decided to go to war

Additional Thoughts:

Austria Hungary 5 1915 Journal:

Alliances:                        Threats:
Allied with Romania                Serbia and their ally
to deter allies from                    France pose the
attacking                        greatest threat

Immediate Plan of Attack:
Tomorrow myself, Bulgaria, Romania, and Germany will join forces
to defeat and take over Serbia. Russia fell today so therefore the
only connection Serbia still has is France.

Fears:
I fear the Italy will not honor our alliance and let France and
Great Britain through their territory to get to Germany. I am
fearful that I will lose the battle against Serbia because they
have French troops on their land.

Additional Thoughts:

Austria Hungary 5 1916 Journal:

Alliances:                        Threats:
Italy dishonored our                France and Great
alliance today by                    Britain pose a
joining the Allies                    large threat

Immediate Plan of Attack:
No immediate plan of action is planned. I will wait until France and
Great Britain attack on my land

Fears:
I fear that I will lose the battle against France and Great Britain and
that Serbia will regain the territory they lost today

Additional Thoughts:
I knew Italy would dishonor our alliance from the start, I told Germany
and the rest of the Central Powers that they should be the first country
we take out. I am leery that Serbia will rebel and therefore regain their
territory. I am also leery of Romania as I am not sure they will honor
our alliance as well.

No additional alliances                France, Italy
were created today                    Great Britain,
Serbia

Immediate Plan of Attack:
No immediate plan of attack is is place.

Fears:
I fear that I will be taken over, Germany will fall, and therefore the
Central Powers will lose the war.

Additional Thoughts:
Because of the circumstances, dwindling troops and resources, the
original goal of mine is unreachable and therefore unattainable.
As far as I’m concerned, you can count me out of the war at this
point in time.

WW1 Lesson Plan Journal: Serbia, Montenegro and Greece 5

Period 5

Serbia, Greece, Montenegro 1913
This year Serbia allied with France and Great Britain, because they are strong Western countries who can really help my country. Eventually I hope to come to a negotiation with Austria-Hungary, and to unite both of the Slavs in each of our country into one. We still have to figure out what we are going to do for sure, but right now there won’t be a war between us. I want a Slavic state, no matter what. Russia announced that if someone wants to attack Serbia, they also are going to being going against Russia. I am glad I allied with the people I did, because they are very trustworthy, and have strong armies, so I think that will help my country be successful. I also mobilized my troops in Serbia for defense, just in case someone goes to war. Greece is going to stay neutral until 1917, and then I hope to eventually convince Germany to become an ally. Greece’s won’t be mobilized, because it is unnecessary. Same with Montenegro, mobilizing troops wouldn’t do anything. France convinced me to become allies with them also, so they will have my countries back, just in case.

Serbia, Greece, Montenegro 1914
This year there wasn’t much action. I just focused on convincing the allies to start moving their troops to Serbia, because eventually Austria-Hungary is going to attack. Great Britain and France started moving their troops, to help defend me. I plan on them defending my country, so I become stronger and eventually I can get back my land from Austria-Hungary. Greece has to stay neutral until 1917, so there wasn’t very much action going on in Greece. I know last year I wanted to ally with Germany, but now I’m reconsidering that because I don’t really know what would be best yet. I may ally Montenegro with Serbia, but then I’m worried that Montenegro will get taken over. I just have to sit back, and wait a little because before I start making more moves. I’m really depending on my allies to help me, because without them I won’t be very successful.

Serbia, Greece, Montenegro 1915
This year was a year of waiting and seeing what was going to happen. Great Britain and France’s troops are now in Serbia, waiting to defend. Austria Hungary’s troops are gradually getting closer to Serbia, so I’m thinking there is a war coming soon. I don’t know what is going to happen. Greece is still neutral, I have 2 years to figure out whether I want to become a central power or an ally. I’m thinking I’m going to want to be an ally because I trust them more. I’m worried because Russia is now out of the war, because of a civil war. Russia is allied with Serbia and Greece. I hope Great Britain and France help me out, because I really am going to need them. Montenegro is still standing strong. They are honoring their alliances, and hoping that their alliances honor Montenegro because it is a very little country.

Serbia, Greece, Montenegro 1916
Serbia got defeated by the central powers this year, but hopefully we will be able to get Serbia back. Great Britain, France, and Montenegro weren’t able to really help me. Great Britain is going to hopefully fight back for Serbia, by taking over A2 and move through there. Eventually I hope to take over A3, too, with the help of my allies because that is my objective. I have to wait and see if Great Britain is successful in taking over A2, and if they are willing to take over A3. Greece is neutral until next year, and then will become part of the allies, and then Greece will help out the allies, and vice versa. I need to get back Macedonia from Bulgaria, so hopefully we will meet the objective of taking it over. The only problem is that Romania, Austria Hungary and Germany all have troops in Serbia, so they have easy access in helping defending Bulgaria.

Serbia, Greece, Montenegro 1917
Serbia is still part of the Central Powers, but we are gradually moving toward taking over A2 from Austria Hungary. We just have to wait and see where the Central Powers put there troops. Germany tried to take over Montenegro, but with the help of the Italian navy, they were defeated. Therefore, I retained Montenegro’s original territory which is one of my objectives, unless they try to take it over again. Greece became part of the Allied Powers this year, and are no longer neutral, so that objective is met. The only problem is that the Central Powers are moving their troops into Serbia, which means they are probably going to attack Greece. If they take over Greece, hopefully we can get it back, because we will have more territories taken over around that area. We attacked A2 from the Central Powers and we WERE successful! This is very good because that was one of my objectives, so hopefully we keep A2. Now that we have A2, we can get Serbia, and then Bulgaria. That’s only if things go as planned. I really need to get Serbia back, and take Bulgaria, so it’s very important for my allies to help. Next year I’m planning on putting 150 of my 230 troops onto the navy with Italy to help them take over the Ottoman Empire. Although this makes it easier for them to take over Greece, hopefully eventually we can fight back for Greece.

Serbia, Greece, Montenegro 1918
This year was the last year of the war, and it didn’t go as well as I planned and wanted it to. Good things did happen though, I just wanted more to happen. If we would have had a little more time, I know that we would have been a lot more successful. We did not end up getting Serbia back from the Central Powers, my allies focused on getting the bigger countries, instead of the smaller countries. I tried to convince them that we should go for the smaller countries first, and then work towards the bigger countries. I wanted to get back Serbia, and then capture Bulgaria and A3. This didn’t happen because we kept getting attacked by the Central Powers, and we kept defending ourselves, and even though we were successful most of the time, we still lost a lot of troops. We needed a lot of troops to get back Serbia, and then Bulgaria and A3. Like I said before, if we would have had just a little more time, there’s no doubt we couldn’t have figured out a way to recapture Serbia. I do admit, the Central Powers were very skillful. I met my objectives with Montenegro. I kept their original territory, even though they tried to take it away, and I honored my alliances by helping them when they needed it. Greece also met it’s objectives. It remained neutral until 1917, and then became apart of the Allied Powers. The Ottoman Empire and Bulgaria tried to take Greece, but with France and Italy’s help, they were defeated.
