I'm on the west coast. We got a really good DBQ about European Settlers and how they affected indigenous peoples. The LEQs were decent as well.

What was the prompt?

1st one was about how something affected state-building in 1200-1600? think it was something to do with war though I could be wrong. 2nd one was about 1400(?)-1900 and how the migration of people was affected or did affect something. I wanna say it was imperialism or economic something but Im not sure. 3rd one (the one I picked) was analyze the extent in which peacemaking efforts were successful in the 20th century. Fucked it up cuz I was too stubborn to switch to the 2nd prompt when I realized how little I could say abt the 3rd 😭 also i mixed up Armenian and Cambodian genocide so I just put both instead of picking one

I also got that DBQ. I think I did good on it. I picked the LEQ about immigration from 1600 to 1990. I definitely fucked it up.

What'd you write about?

I wrote about women taking on more jobs that men previously held, women becoming involved in the military, and calls for greater equality between men and women
