International relations was a confusing topic and after i had finished watching the video i slowly understood a little about what the class was about. in the video of the introducing of International relation: an introduction and it talks about what we study in IR and how we became interested in this. During the video they spoke how poeple barely studied IR and how towards the end of WW2 many people finally decided to take up IR and find what it truly is and what they are studing about. To begin i learned so far that many people have a different view on this subject and it makes it interesting for them to hear what others have to say, and at the same time the subject of IR has multiple subjects in it. Internation Relation so far is a study of multiple subjects like war related events, laws, problems a country faces to even disasters. All these usually fall under the same term being violence and power, and these is what IR usually focuses on.

Their is also race that plays a part in International Relations, that throughout history race has shaped our view on the subject with what it impacts. I have learned based on reading “Why Race Matters in International Relations” that years ago not many people would add race in their topic lesson. At the same time they would maybe at race and racisms in IR but towards the end of their lesson or even a day and week later. The lesson in IR teaches how each country and or state reacts to war or conflict and how they approach it before or right after its done.
