I have to assume that i am a realist, meaning i believe in the realism theory and that all states' actions are motivated by realism and realism only.

Question

Now, i have to come up with three examples why i believe this. I should be able to pursuade others that i'm right.

WHAT SHOULD MY 3 EXAMPLES BE? (real-life examples of both current and modern historical)

i don't need 3 full paragraphs.
i just need some ideas.

PLEASE HELLLLP!!
gracias <3

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Realist
