Access+World+History

===Our class begins by examining the current topic of the Syrian war and the reaction of the world to developments in that country. As part of our study we will follow procedures that incorporate ideas from the Model UN Simulation where the students develop a knowledge of regional countries and other stakeholders with an interest in the Middle East. The countries of the region include Syria, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt, Turkey, Iraq, and Iran. The United States, Russia, China, Britain, France, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the Arab Emerates are included in nations out side the immediate region who have an interest in what goes on inside Syria. Each student will do research on the issues that created the Syrian civil war and the point of view of one other country. In the UN simulation the student will then state his/her country's position on the war and what actions and outcomes their country is pursuing.===
