War is never anything less than accelerated technological change. It begins when some notable disequilibrium among existing structures has been brought about by inequality of rates of growth. The very late industrialization and unification of Germany had left her out of the race for staples and colonies for many years. As the Napoleonic wars were technologically a sort of catching-up of France with England, the First World War was itself a major phase of the final industrialization of Germany and America. As Rome had not shown before, and Russia has shown today, militarism is itself the main route of technological education and acceleration for lagging areas.

Is there any way to tell when I should use и and when ь? Like, I understand what's the difference between them, but I can't hear it so... is there any rules? Or do you just have to know?

korean sentence of the day #17 - 비가 오니까, 집에 가세요.

Note: when you see an ending like the “so” ending ~(으)니까 (there are weird parentheses in it), the thing in the parentheses (으) is dropped if the thing preceding it ends in a vowel.

bonus sentences from my textbook:

- 날씨가 더우니까, 주스를 마십시다 = it’s hot so lets have some juice - 시간이 없으니까, 택시를 탈까요? = since we don’t have time, shall we take a taxi? / we don’t have time, so shall we take a taxi? - 그 영화가 재미있으니까, 보세요. = the movie was fun so (you should) watch it. (note that this sentence is in the past tense so it goes verb stem 재미 + past tense 있 + ‘so’ ending ~(으)니까 )
