I reckon if it was me I'd start really basic and outline what factors I'm thinking to include. I'd start by mindmapping that and then developing each thought.

Yeah I have some factors already such as Appeasement, Treaty of Versailles and Hitlers Foreign policy. I struggle mostly with fleshing out and developing my points. I’ll give the mind maps a go 👍

Hii, how are you revising/preparing for China? Have you found any useful websites? :smile:

I'm just going over my notes to make flashcards and I'll do past papers eventually. To be honest I'm never sure how to revise history 😭

Hi i am OCR exam board and am currently doing the initial planning of the coursework on Russia - the question is "How successful was the Tsarist autocracy in re-establishing its authority between 1905 and 1914?"

I have found plenty of primary sources for this online through websites like this - https://alphahistory.com/ and once opening my topic there is a button named 'documents' on the upper left side that you wanna go to.

Can anyone help me with where i may be able to find secondary sources in general excluding textbooks as i don't have access to one at the moment.

That's what I'm doing as well, I agree germany is more interesting than the other two topics, it's hard to revise tudors sometime because it's so boring.
