August 1 gave the world Germany's declaration of war on Russia, and this one-page printable comic tells the whole day in panels.
The hero story is Germany's declaration of war on Russia in 1914, when Kaiser Wilhelm II declared war on Russia, drawing more nations into World War I. Fighting on the Eastern Front soon stretched across a vast area and lasted for years. Around it are eight more true events from the date: the Battle of the Nile beginning (1798), Colorado becoming the 38th state (1876), the Slavery Abolition Act taking effect (1834), Dahomey gaining independence (1960), the Warsaw Uprising beginning (1944), Columbus reaching South America (1498), and Robert Morrison's death (1834). A World Lung Cancer Day feature and a born-on-this-day strip close the page.
Print it for morning work, a history lesson, or an August 1 study. One page, no prep.
After checkout, your printable PDF will be delivered by email from The Wandering Pilgrims. The download link stays active for 24 hours, so please save your file when it arrives. If you need it again after the link expires, just reply to your order email and we will resend it.
