The 20th century opens with large, monolithic empires carving up the world for economic gain and closes with the ethnic violence, genocide and terrorism carried out by groups of people against other groups of people. Technology and economics provided fuel that drove politics and social movements of the 20th Century, laying the groundwork for the world we live in today.

Some argue that more than any other century, the 20th century was driven by charismatic personalities. Of all of it, which do you think were the 5 most influential events, experiences, and/or people that shaped the 20th century and helped create the world we live in today? Explain

I'm trying to write a paper on why 1930-s era Germany followed Hitler into a huge war which eventually devastated their own nation, and involved atrocities many of them could never have guessed. I't pretty much half done but I need a couple more pages on why the people followed Hitler, allowing him total control. I know about most of the problems Germany had after the first world war but I'm especially needing help with how to write/ explain the circumstances and what led so many people to listen to/support Hilter.
Point One: highly charismatic.
Point Two: shared a lot of German views - anti-semetism, aryanism, hate/disdain for Versailles etc.
Point Three: outlet for a lot of kids (hitlerjugend) especially for anger or boredom.

You'd think that the biplane would be shot down in a few minutes? Why didn't they just use a regular airplane (fighter plane to fly in front)? Also, in WW2, did the US navy/air force use biplanes to fly in front of a formation of planes?
