• "I will use this source for one of my Comparative Analysis Paragraphs. I think that it provide information that can help me answer question B."
• "This is a good primary source. Its written by Pericles and describes what life was like in Greece during the development of Democracy."

 

Where to Find Sources:

• Old Regents Exams (DBQ Documents usually start on page 12, so you can just skip ahead to that page to scan the topic of the DBQ and the documents)

• History Teacher (There are SOOO many places to look, I don't even know where to start. This site is A-MAZING)

• Regents Prep (Click here for a direct link to their Political Systems Section)

• Fordham Sourcebook (Choose a time period on the left sidebar and begin scrolling through the time, then make further selections on the left sidebar)
  
• Google Scholar: Instead of doing an ordinary Google search, type in your political system with its region, click on "More">"Scholar" and you'll come up with scholarly articles, historian's perspectives, and research by professional analysts on your topic. BEWARE- some of these have VERY difficult language, if you're having trouble reading the first paragraph, move on to the next article. 
• Regular Old Google: Type in the naem of your political system and the letters "DBQ" after. 
• Ex: "Feudalism Japan DBQ"
• Ex: "Absolutism France DBQ"
• Classroom Documents: I have lots of sources in my classroom. Come by on Monday during lunch and I can help you choose some from my stock if you are having difficulty finding sources.
