Explain how audience and timing shape source use: German unification under Bismarck
History HL 2028 assessment source-first practice. This provenance card about German unification under Bismarck from 1862 to 1871 in Europe is being used for this task focus: audience, timing, and source use. A student is answering a Paper 1 source inquiry. What should the next sentence do so source content, provenance, origin, purpose, audience, historical context, perspective, corroboration, and judgement are used accurately? Select the inquiry focus, source evidence, context/perspective move, and historical judgement. Then answer in your own words: what should the student write next to strengthen this History HL response for the exact source or task? AI will analyse your source use, provenance, historical context, perspective, concepts, argument judgement, and expression.
Worked practice: build the argument
Build the historical argument: inquiry focus, source evidence, context and perspective, then a supported judgement.

Now write the response in full, in your own words — this is what the exam asks for. The AI marks it on the same moves you built above (focus, evidence, technique, judgement) and gives feedback on reasoning, evidence, and expression.
