And why did Brutus, whose own life had been saved by Caesar, join in the plot? Kathryn Tempest investigates the personal and political assassination of Julius Caesar.

The Great War Video Series
Key Canadian battles during the First World War led to the march to victory in 1918.

Created by Canada’s History — October 1, 2018
When the First World War began in 1914, Canada had no choice — as part of the British Empire, the country was automatically at war.

More than 650,000 Canadians served over the course of the four-year conflict, an impressive number for a population of around eight million. And, through its successes on the battlefield, Canada proved itself many times. But the fighting took its toll; by the end of the war, more than 66,000 Canadians had been killed, and another 172,000 had been wounded.

November 11, 2018, marks the hundredth anniversary of the end of the First World War. Here are just a few key Canadian battles along the road to armistice in 1918.

Guidelines to the Procurement Obligations of Domestic and International Trade Agreement

Guidelines to the Procurement Obligations of Domestic and International Trade Agreement

Rating

"A document titled Guidelines to the Procurement Obligations of Domestic and International Trade Agreement has been developed to house basic procurement obligations in one place. It provides information about Saskatchewan’s procurement obligations under the following agreements:

"New West Partnership Trade Agreement between British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba; Canadian Free Trade Agreement between all Canadian provinces, territories and the federal government; Comprehensive and Economic Trade Agreement between Canada and the members of the European Union;
World Trade Organization Agreement on Government Procurement; and, Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership between Canada and ten other Pacific Rim countries.

This document is a guide and should not been taken as legal advice, nor should it replace the specific procurement obligations outlined in each agreement. Nonetheless, a procuring entity that follows the guidelines should be assured that its actions will generally meet the applicable obligations of the trade agreements.

You are encouraged to become familiar with these guidelines and review your procurement policies with this document in mind."

HOW World War I Started: Crash Course World History 209

HOW World War I Started: Crash Course World History 209

Rating

In which John Green teaches you about World War I and how it got started. Crash Course doesn't usually talk much about dates, but the way that things unfolded in July and August of 1914 are kind of important to understanding the Great War. You'll learn about Franz Ferdinand, Gavrilo Pincep, the Black Hand, and why the Serbian nationalists wanted to kill the poor Archduke. You'll also learn who mobilized first and who exactly started the war. Sort of. Actually there's no good answer to who started the war, but we give it a shot anyway.

Haitian Revolutions: Crash Course World History #30

Haitian Revolutions: Crash Course World History #30

Rating

Ideas like liberty, freedom, and self-determination were hot stuff in the late 18th century, as evidenced by our recent revolutionary videos. Although freedom was breaking out all over, many of the societies that were touting these ideas relied on slave labor. Few places in the world relied so heavily on slave labor as Saint-Domingue, France's most profitable colony. Slaves made up nearly 90% of Saint-Domingue's population, and in 1789 they couldn't help but hear about the revolution underway in France. All the talk of liberty, equality, and fraternity sounds pretty good to a person in bondage, and so the slaves rebelled. This led to not one but two revolutions, and ended up with France, the rebels, Britain, and Spain all fighting in the territory. Spoiler alert: the slaves won. So how did the slaves of what would become Haiti throw off the yoke of one of the world's great empires? John Green tells how they did it, and what it has meant in Haiti and in the rest of the world.
