How to answer a causes question and a source question
Causation questions reward sorting. Long-term causes build pressure over years (for the First World War: the alliance system, imperial rivalry and militarism), short-term causes raise tension in the final months, and a trigger such as the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in June 1914 sets events moving. Strong answers then rank the causes and explain why one mattered more, rather than listing them with equal weight.
Consequences work the same way in reverse. Separate immediate results from long-term ones and intended outcomes from unintended ones, then ask who was affected, how quickly and for how long.
For a primary source, work through four questions. Origin: who made it, when and where? Purpose: was it created to inform, persuade, record or justify? Audience: who was meant to see it, and how would that shape what it says? Reliability: given all of that, what is the source good evidence for? A propaganda poster can be unreliable about the enemy and still be excellent evidence of what a government wanted its people to believe.
Finish with a judgment. Phrases like "to a large extent" or "only partly" need a reason attached, and the best reason is a specific piece of evidence you can name.
How to get a history question explained
Add the question or the source
Type the prompt, paste the source text or photograph the worksheet. Words the tutor cannot read in a photo are flagged in the restated question, not guessed.
Pick your level and style
Go from a middle school overview to college-level historiography, and from a patient tutor to concise exam revision or guiding questions first.
Follow the reasoning
Read the approach, then the numbered steps with the evidence each one relies on, then the short answer at the end.
Test yourself, then dig deeper
Use the check and the practice question, or press "Ask a follow-up" to continue the discussion in AI Chat.
History questions it handles well

Chronology
Put key events of the French Revolution in order and explain how each one led to the next.
Essay planning

Frequently asked questions
No. It helps you plan one: a possible thesis, the order of your paragraphs and the evidence each paragraph needs, while the writing and the final judgment stay yours. Worked answers are for learning and checking, so follow your course's rules on AI help and see our Academic Integrity page.
Yes. Paste the text or add a photo of the page, and include any caption or provenance line. The analysis covers origin, purpose, audience and reliability, and what the source is useful evidence for.
It is instructed never to invent quotations, statistics or citations, and to mark anything uncertain or debated. AI can still be wrong, so check key dates and names against your textbook or class notes.
Yes. Choose elementary or middle school with the simple-words or analogy style, and the tutor keeps the vocabulary plain and the causes few. At college level it brings in historiography and debate.
Questions are included in the Pro plans* (*fair use: up to 300 runs a day across the writing, study and code tools). Without a plan, a typed history question uses 2 credits and one with a photo uses 3. If you are signed out, you can preview the opening of an answer for free.
Answers follow the language of the page you are on, so this English page explains everything in English.
