Russia and its Rulers 1855-1964 Extensive and Useful Essay Plans for the Thematic Questions.
Although content revision (taken from various textbooks) can be very useful, I decided to write âskeletalâ and memorable essay plans for many possible questions that could come up for the thematic side of the exam (two 25-mark essays).
The Essay Plans have been written for 32 âmade-upâ possible questions (questions that have not yet come up in an exam paper, but have come up in textbooks written for this course). Nature of Government: 14 questions, Economy and Society: 12 questions and Wars: 6 questions .
The Plans have been designed so that when you enter into the exam, you already know how to tackle the question: Introduction (establish criteria and set out three to four themes); Theme Paragraphs (what is the sub-theme and then synthesis across the period followed by interim judgement) and finally coming to an overall judgement at the end by bringing together your themes, factors and criteria.
Hopefully these exam plans will be very useful for active revision, but should you have any questions regarding this resource or the course in general, please do not hesitate to email alevelrevisionmadeeasy@gmail.com. If you do like this resource, a review would also be greatly appreciated.

Early Tudors and Mid-Tudor Crisis HUGE Revision Bundle (11 separate documents in total)!
All the notes required for all four of the themes : Henry VIIâs Government and Domestic Policies, Henry VIIâs Foreign Policy, Henry VIII and Wolsey and Henry VIIIâs government after 1529.
*Example Layout:
Central Government
The Kingâs Council:
âą Council chosen by the King. Most of the members were either members of the nobility or the church. However, some important members came from the gentry.
âą However, one change Henry imposed was that he drew his chief advisors from the lesser landowners, rather than from aristocratic families.
âą Although there were over 200 councillors during his reign, meetings were attended by a much smaller number, and he often relied on an inner group so that the efficiency of the central government was improved.
âą The inner group included: Lord Chancellor, Morton; the Lord Privy Seal, Fox; the Lord Treasurer, Dynham; and five others.
Henry also used smaller committees from within the Council, but made the practice more frequent, with the establishment of a Court of Requests, Court of General Surveyors and the Court Learned in the Law.
âą Court of Requests: This was part of the Royal Council and dealt with individual requests from ordinary people and hence gained the nickname âCourt for Poor Menâs Causes.â
âą Court of General Surveyors: This checked the revenue coming in from crown lands and those lands of which the king was feudal overlord.
âą Court of Learned in Law: Its task was to deal with problems concerning royal lands and rights. It was important in enforcing bonds and recognisances, so that by the end of Henryâs reign it was feared and hated. *
Essay Structure Sheets and âCheat Sheetsâ for the Themes Essay and Source Question.
