Additionally, historical terminology and concepts are appropriately and relevantly incorporated throughout the essay, as evidenced by the correct usage of terms such as "blitzkrieg". Furthermore, the essay effectively describes and explains the terms, concepts, and context of the discussed events, ensuring clarity for the reader. As the topic is meaningful and does not breach the 10-year rule, the specific criterion related to inappropriate topics does not apply in this case.
