Part III: Writing about Comparison
Now that you have studied the various factors at play in British, Japanese, and Russian industrialization, imperialism, and nationalism, and you have summarized your notes by comparing the countries in those three categories, you are to write a thesis statement for this prompt:
“Focusing on the late 19th and early 20th centuries’ development of industrialization, imperialism, and nationalism, evaluate the most significant area of difference between Great Britain, Japan, and Russia.” Remember that to prove “most significant”, you must compare several categories in proving that one category is “most.”
