Bridget's feedback:

"This is a strong piece of writing with clear evidence of extensive research that functions as support and a foundation for the essay's ethos. The latter can be amplified by incorporating your sources as in-text citations, signal phrases, or a bibliography (check your assignment guidelines and style guide for what would be most appropriate).

Your discussion across the paper builds logically and clearly. I recommend starting a new paragraph when you shift from discussing Germany to Britain and France; another option could be to use subheadings and group the discussions, as you already have a "Conclusion" heading. This can bring more structural clarity and help organize the reader's experience of the various overlapping areas of focus. Related to clarity, a thorough proofread will be essential: in this current draft, frequent awkward diction and mechanics issues, including some sentence boundary errors, make the reading experience rather bumpy. Catch those errors to ensure the reader can focus on the various details and themes of the argumentation.

As a final note, I question the efficacy of the broadest degree of your thesis, which seeks to argue "Without X, the situation would have been different." Unless this is how your prompt asks you to frame the discussion, consider focusing on "Because of X, this is how the situation played out," as this is the direction in which your historical evidence, derived from what happened, points."
