The events that caused/were some of the reasons why the war broke

(includes the reasons against their significance as well)
If to take a look at the past papers (CIE Paper 2), the 10 marker question usually has a template “[cause]
was the most significant in war breaking out. How far do you agree?”
This table summarises each of those causes. Also, to achieve top marks in a 10 marker question follow a
2/3 structure: 2 developed paragraphs on one side, and 3 paragraphs on another (so it can be 2 for and 3
against or vice versa with 2 against and 3 for) of the argument. Make sure that your answer is balanced
and you have a cohesive conclusion – it doesn’t matter what side you will choose for the question, as long
as you don’t sit on the fence and can back up your point.
