About this resource

This quiz focuses on World War I geography and alliance systems, designed for high school students at the 9th-10th grade level. The questions systematically assess students' understanding of the major alliance structures that defined the early 20th century European political landscape, specifically the Triple Alliance and Triple Entente, along with their evolution into the Central Powers and Allied forces during WWI. Students must demonstrate knowledge of key geographical locations, political boundaries as they existed in 1914, and the complex web of diplomatic relationships that contributed to the outbreak of global conflict. The quiz requires students to identify specific countries on a map, understand the significance of regional tensions in the Balkans, and recognize how alliance systems shifted during the war period, particularly Italy's departure from the Triple Alliance and subsequent alignment with the Allies. Created by Mary Moyer, a History teacher in the US who teaches grades 9-10. This assessment tool effectively supports instruction in World War I causes and European political geography through visual map analysis combined with factual recall questions. The quiz works exceptionally well as a formative assessment following lessons on pre-war alliance systems, as homework to reinforce map study skills, or as a review activity before summative assessments on WWI causes. Teachers can utilize this quiz for warm-up activities to activate prior knowledge about European geography or as practice for students developing their ability to analyze historical maps and identify key nations involved in major conflicts. The content aligns with NCSS.D2.His.1.9-12 and NCSS.D2.His.3.9-12 standards, requiring students to evaluate historical interpretations and focus inquiry to facilitate understanding of how major historical events developed over time and geographic space.
