Not sure how this forum works, but I'm looking for advice for writing an extended response for China AOS1.

Our teacher has signalled that the timeframe of our SAC will be between 1912-1934. The teacher also alluded to the idea that the extended response will generally be surrounding Sun Yixian's three principles and their survival (or not) with regards to the Early Republic Era and the Nationalist Decade. Here's an example of the kind of question we may be asked.

'Despite the failures of leadership in the Early Republic, not all of Sun Yixian's ideals were lost.' Discuss (20 marks)

I have a plan but would appreciate any advice! Cheers.

I think best thing is to see what your general plan would be and we can see if we can add to it! What are your thoughts on how you'd address this?
Just to be clear, I assume you're talking about Sun Yat-sen's Three Principles of the People (sanminzhuyi) - nationalism, democracy and people's livelihood?

Hey guys, looking for help on these two questions:

1. Analyse the role of Jiang Jieshi (Chiang Kai-Shek) in the defeat of the Nationalist Cause (10 marks)
2. ‘The Nationalist Decade (1927-1937) can be seen as a golden phase for China.’ To what extent do you agree with this view? (20 marks)

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

1. Not really sure of your timeframe here - are you talking about how the nationalists were defeated in the civil war, leading to CCP control?

2.
For:
- Modernised finance, industry, communications, transport, sovereignty etc (basically modernised the cities) which was a pretty big thing
- New Life Movement

Against:
- Communist uprisings - let Mao really develop his ideology (particularly military and social reforms), increase his supporter base - this was when he really moved to focusing on peasants, then there was the Long March and all that
- Japanese invasion and the mess that followed

Honestly for 2. I'd argue it wasn't really a golden phase because although it did allow China to undergo a lot of economic development, the nationalist attacks on the communists really galvanised the communists into building their forces and developing their ideology so they were a lot more organised.

Who were the Cossacks? (Russia)

Wondering if anyone has used the HTAV Study and Exam Guides, and if so would you deem them to be worth the $27? If not does anyone have other resource recommendations? I'm doing France and Russia but happy to hear feedback in general. I'd planned using the State Library for exam resources but that's obviously off the cards for this year....

Why is it called the February Revolution when the Tsar abdicated March 1? (Russia)

I've not, but there's some pretty decent free notes out there (on AN) for both France and Russia. Other than that, dunno about any other resources.
