Week 14 DAY 1

For the 14th week class, we were asked to search the following :

1.     Volks Gemehscheft

2.     Anshluss

3.     Liebensraum

4.     Appeasement

These are all related to Nazi Germany and Hitler, and according to Wikipedia, these are what the 4 things above mean :

- Volks Gemehscheft - Volksgemeinschaft is a German-language expression meaning "people's community".^[1] This expression originally became popular during World War I as Germans rallied in support of the war, and it appealed to the idea of breaking down elitism and uniting people across class divides to achieve a national purpose.^[2] At first it was used in both democratic and populist politics in Germany, but later it was adopted by the Nazis and became associated solely with them.

  Anschluss - The Anschluss [ˈʔanʃlʊs] ( listen) (spelled Anschluß at the time of the event, and until the German orthography reform of 1996; German for "connection" or union, political annexation^[1]), also known as theAnschluss Österreichs ( pronunciation (help·info)), was the occupation and annexation of Austria intoNazi Germany in 1938.^[2] This was in contrast with the Anschluss movement (Austria and Germany united as one country),^[a] which had been attempted since as early as 1918 when the Republic of German-Austriaattempted union with Germany but was forbidden by the Treaty of Saint Germain and Treaty of Versaillespeace treaties.

LLiebensraum - Lebensraum  listen (help·info) (German for "habitat" or literally "living space") was an important component of Nazi ideology in Germany. The Nazis supported territorial expansionism to gain Lebensraum as being a law of nature for all healthy and vigorous peoples of superior races to displace people of inferior races; especially if the people of a superior race were facing overpopulation in their given territories.

• Appeasement - Appeasement in a political context is a diplomatic policy of making political or material concessions to an enemy power in order to avoid conflict.

• 4. How was the team performance? What can be done to improve (how are we implementing Kaizen daily).
• The team performance was bad, as we didn't do anything that satisfy us.
• I think we can improve by strengthening our bonds and learn to rely on each other more.
