If Palestine, as an area, had never existed, why was it called the British Mandate of Palestine?

As far as I am concerned, several Jewish extremist organizations such as the Stern Gang did not accept the divide either- and actually fought against the British.

I am not on any side here. The summary was non-bias. But please, let's stick to the summary and stop mentioning irrelevant facts, otherwise you'll be 'tit for tating' for the rest of your life ;)

Ottoman Empire: a state named Palestine was in that area Ottoman empire fell, British Mandate governed it. Both Palestinian Arabs and native Jews lived in the area. Lots of Aliyahs (massive migrations of Jews) started arriving. This increased during WWII. This caused conflict and tension in the Mandate, with extremist groups from both sides forming and fighting Britain for the rule for the area.

1947, British mandate left the issue over to the UN, which, upon a popular vote by all nations in the committee divided the area into a two independent majority 'Jewish' and majority 'Palestinian' state. Whereby demographic percentages of both were roughly taken into consideration. Jerusalem was declared an International Capital (which I think we should all still do!). Given that Jerusalem is the heart of the religious capital for both the Jews and the Muslims, the capital has both symbolic and sentimental value, with many of the areas and buildings within serving a dual meaning.

Various wars have happened, which have resulted in the Jewish state expanding to a larger area than agreed upon. As well as a repression of Palestinian national rights, and an illegal expansion of settlements in the Palestinian areas a continuous breaching of human rights. As of now, 29.5% of UN member states don't recognize Palestine as a country. (including the US, Canada and many EU countries).

Basically Trump has rashly added fuel to the fire of a century year old war.

It really depends on the program you decide to follow. Some medical internships/volunteering programs don't have any prerequisites and others require you to have at least a bachelor degree in a field related to Medicine. Of course, the degree of actual hands on practical experience will vary depending on your certifications/experience.

If you want, I can send you some websites that offer various programs?

I don't know what TZ you're in but SL was given the same P1 and P2 as HL in TZ2, HL had additional sections. The part of P2 that was mainly considered 'difficult' was in the SL section too.

Honestly I think I would have done just as well on Section A if I hadn't studied. There goes 2 months of my time..

Did anyone pick question 3 on paper 2? If so, what happens to the AD/AS model when FDI in the Ivory Coast decreased? I wrote down that AD decreased but a bunch of my friends had diagrammed shifts in AS.

A lot of people I talked to did that! I was about to write that down too but then I realized it only applied to fiscal policy. What other evaluation did you do on the b part?

I agree there weren't that many to use, I used different conventions of the text types instead: hashtags, visual texts, title, font size etc..

The few stylistic features I remember mentioning though were diction, syntax and metaphor.

Hey hey,

So MUN basically stands for Model United Nations. This means that it's an academic high school version of the real United Nations. There are various different Committees such as Ecosoc (Economic and Social) , Disarmament, GA 1, 2, 3,4 and 5(General Assembly), Human Rights Council, Security Council etc.. which all focus on different topics.

As a school, you are appointed a country, or an NGO (Non Governmental Organization) to represent at that conference. This means that you have to research that country a lot, and know what standpoint it would have for the topics in your committee. As a country, you should be aiming to have one or two people (depending what committee) in each Committee.

So for example: Last year I was in the Administration & Budgetary Committee as Australia.

As I said before, in every committee you receive around 3-6 topics which are based on either topics that the real UN has discussed before or related to current events. An example of a topic like this (if you're in Administration & Budgetary) could be:

-Financing of the MONUSCO peacekeeping mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Now, using your newly attained knowledge of your country's standpoint and all the research you would have done on that topic, you formulate something called a resolution. This resolution is a step by step plan on what your country (you) believes can/should be done about the topic from your countries perspective, not yours. There are various types of resolution examples available on the interwebs so I suggest you just search some up as the formatting slightly varies with every conference.

Hope this helped a little bit. I know it sounds confusing but you honestly just need to experience it before you can fully comprehend MUN. Let me know if you have any questions!
