Your question has a lot of variables. Normally the rough estimate for a completed home (materials and labor) is $120+ per square foot. That's for an average home in the midwest USA.
I would imagine that the cost of materials would be much higher in that area. I would guess at least $60+ per square foot. In most areas the averge total cost of a new home is roughly 50% materials and 50% labor.
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.
