2012 commemorates the anniversary of the opening of the largest McDonald’s restaurant (Beijing, in 1992), the airing of the first Simpsons episode (1987), the bombing of Guernica during the Spanish Civil war (1937), the election of Joseph Stalin as leader of the Communist party in the Soviet Union (1922), and the sinking of the Titanic (1912). Choose one of the following topics to develop into a two-page, word-processed essay. We’re interested in seeing how your mind works as well as how well you write.

Relate these events to each other in some way, historically, ideologically, or imaginatively.
