Answer 2

I know it's not the "Correct" way of doing it, but when I was in school, as a History major, I had to do a lot of reading, and writing of book reports and essays. I always just sat down and wrote, not concerning myself with a thesis statement until I was wrapping up my work. The computer REALLY makes that style of writing easy. Drag the curser, "Copy", "Paste." But for you...

The United States found itself after the Second World War to be a super power and very much at odds with it's one-time ally the Soviet Union. It has been said, to the victors go the spoils of war. So it was with these two countries, snatching and clawing at every bit of technology and those who were behind the advancement of that technology from within the defeated Nazi Germany.

Answer 3

A thesis Statement is a topic you want to prove and about what you will be writing about.

A Example of a Thesis Statement

The Cold War was the testbed of new technology of warfare. Developments in Weapons, transports, medical, and information shows that the war was not just a war, but a war of developing new technology to fight the enemy.

What do you want to PROVE TO YOUR READERS?

Answer 4

"The United States brought about the greatest disaster in world history by allying with the Soviet Union in WWII and splitting up Europe between democracy and communism."

Then tell about how we should have stayed out of the fight and let Hitler and Stalin kill each other. Communism killed upwards of 60 million people during the Cold War, far more than Hitler ever dreamed of killing.

Answer 5

Dictator or Democracy
