1. Choose three of the topics on the right to investigate as possible research topics.

2. For each topic you will need to find out the:

• Who? 

What groups or major figures are involved?

• Where?

Where and when did this (or is this) occurring?

• How?

How were/are the groups separated?

• Why?

In general terms, why did the separation occur?

3. Use informal Internet sources such as Wikipedia to find out general info about these topics. The information you gather should be written in complete sentences on a sheet of your own paper.
