  2. Make sure that when you're writing your piece you are argumentative. Also, when you are writing your piece give information on both sides of conflict which will eliminate bias and lead to different possible interpretations.

  3. You may want to consider narrowing your topic. For example, consequences is a broad term that when applied in a historical context references all and any of the events that happened as a result of either genocide. Try considering the just the social or political consequences.

  4. Great comments from Matt & Dawid! I like the idea behind your question, but it might be difficult to compare these two events since they occurred 80 years apart in two very different parts of the world. If you want to look at Armenia, you may want to consider the genocide of the Herero in southern Africa. Also, as Matt suggested, I would identify what type of consequences you will address (ex. social, political, economic, or cultural).

  5. This is a good question. Although the genocides are far apart in time you could consider comparing them also
