Chapter 14 main ideas


1. In the 500s Slavic people came from Poland and Albania because of all the different foreign rulers they had.

2. The diversity led to conflict because the different ethnic and religious groups wanted different things and they conflicted with each other.
3. After Serbian forces withdrew from Kosovo international officials found evidence that the Serbs tortured and killed Kosovars.
 
4.Future conflicts could come from the fact that Serbia refuses to recognize Kosovo as a country. They might not respect them as much and could try to invade.
5. Acid Rain has been known to change chemistry of lakes and rivers and kill the fish.
6. Under Communist rule the eastern part of Germany became heavily polluted.
7. Pollution is hard to resolve because regions want to industrialize and expand their economy so the damage seems a small price to pay or the costs of being eco friendly in factories is too high and many can’t afford it.

8. Forerunners in the EU were the European Coal and Steel Community, the European Economic community, and the European community. 

9. Leaders thought economic alliance would prevent war because it would help increase trade and people could work and live in other countries. 

10. Problems that could arise from allowing former communist countries into the EU are that they don't have much experience with democracy and they have communist pasts.
