You can find the standard deviation of something by knowing how far away it is to the mean (or average). For example, the standard deviation for a 6' tall American male is 3. That is because the average American male is 5' 9'' tall.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
