Calling glRotated endlessly without resetting the matrices is a bad idea. Rounding errors will accumulate. You currently don't call glIdentity each frame.
Render each frame the following way.
Use glPushMatrix(); before your rotation transforms and glPopMatrix(); after the second quad is rendered then only the second quad will be affected by the rotation transforms.
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.
