TEKS and Content Economics. The student understands the impact of the Neolithic and Industrial revolutions and globalization on humanity. The student is expected to: 17A- Identify important changes in human life caused by the Neolithic Revolution 17B- Summarize the role of economics in driving political changes as related to the Neolithic Revolution A shift from a nomadic, hunter-gather lifestyle to permanent settlements with growing societies; societies became more civilized as shown by the characteristics of civilizations The family structure changed from a matriarchal society in Paleolithic age to a patriarchal society in the Neolithic age. The importance of women decreased as the permanent settlements became more advanced and developed into civilizations. Women became responsible for taking care of the home and family, leading to gender inequality because it was a form of unpaid labor. Hunter-gatherers farmers surplus job specialization governments Economic changes led to the formation of government (need for laws, maintaining irrigation systems, protection against invaders) Taxes and tributes helped support the government and fund projects.

24 Interactions between Europe and Africa during this time period will contribute to the Atlantic Slave Trade in the next era but not end the slave trade occurring in Southwest Asia. The appeal of Islam to lower classes and not having to pay the head tax were reasons for people converting to Islam.

Cultural diffusion led to achievements in art and science in Muslim-controlled cities and helped contribute to an Islamic golden age. North Africa: The Fatimid dynasty was set up in North Africa; Berbers, who had originally been Christian and Jewish, converted to Islam in the 600s; later, North African Muslims helped establish trade with West African kingdoms and spread Islam. The slave trade originated with Muslim and rulers/merchants in Africa and the Middle East before continuing across the Atlantic. The first major development occurs in the 600s when Islamic traders exchanged goods for African slaves. The slaves were then sent to Southwest Asia. The Sudan had no gold so the people there were taken as slaves.

37 The effects of the Crusades (as a whole) on trade and spread of technology/ achievements is a main focus for this TEKS. The appeal of Islam to lower classes and not having to pay the head tax were reasons for people converting to Islam. Because they worshiped God, Christians and Jews ( people of the book ) played prominent roles in Muslim states (government officials and scholars). Cultural diffusion led to achievements in art and science in Muslim-controlled cities and helped contribute to an Islamic golden age. Spain: The Muslim invasion of Spain by the Umayyad Caliphate in the 700s led to a golden age in scientific and artistic achievement; the Reconquista drove the Muslims out of Spain in 1492; the Spanish Inquisition led to torture and removal of Muslims and Jews to later create a Catholic state. Central and Eastern Europe: Slavs were converted to Orthodox Christianity or Catholicism by missionaries; Vikings settle Kiev and eventually accept Eastern Orthodox Christianity, established prosperous trade routes, civil wars, Mongols invade and eventually unify all of Russia Asia: The Crusades led to conflicts between Christians and Muslims; the Muslims conquered Constantinople in 1453 and established the Ottoman Empire.

The humanist movement promoted secularism, where a more worldly view of society is observed fostering a sense of individualism which led to the Protestant Reformation. Trade had increased the wealth of a growing merchant class and middle class. The Renaissance, role of Christianity, and the Protestant Reformation led to an increase in secularism and individualism because of the ideas promoted and the conflict over religion. All of this led to a growing separation of church and state. The role of the individual in a society gave rise to democratic ideas, such as the freedom of speech and the freedom of press as seen in later revolutions.

The Atlantic slave trade grew as system of slavery from West Africa to the Americas (specifically the Caribbean and Brazil) and changed the social structure. Mixed races and cultures of Latin America were formed become a contributing factor in revolutions later (connect to social causes of the Latin American revolutions). The male slaves crossed the Atlantic while female slaves journeyed from West Africa to Southwest Asia.

48 slave trade); culturally Christianity is introduced to West Africa; African artists created products for European markets including ivory sculptures Americas: African populations increased in the Americas through slavery and intermarriage with Europeans and Native Americans; British colonies (later the U.S. south) depended on slave labor for the production of cash crops such as tobacco and cotton; African slaves shared their food, music, and art which left a lasting influence on American culture. 7D- Explain the impact of the Ottoman Empire on Eastern Europe and global trade Ottoman Empire became a major crossroad for trade. As the Ottoman Empire expanded, European trade routes were disrupted. Ottoman control of eastern Mediterranean interfered with European trade routes with East Asia. The desire for spices, products, and the control of trade routes led many European monarchs to sponsor expeditions. This also raised the prestige of their nation as they acquired more resources and land. Europeans wanted to take control of the trade routes from the Ottoman Empire, who controlled trade routes in the Indian Ocean as well as in Southwest Asia. New technologies in shipping and sailing (connect back to interactions with the east and technologies) allowed expansion to occur in the east and the west. 3 G s: gold (wealth), God (desire to spread Christianity to combat the spread of Islam), and glory (spirit of adventure that was part of the Renaissance) The theory of mercantilism required colonies and raw materials to benefit the European nation-states. Exploration provided these resources. Ming China turned to a policy of isolation, cutting off most trade with the outside world and leaving a power vacuum in trade.

The high demand for silver spurred the global economy and funded wars in Europe, but also caused problems such as inflation; silver sources came from Spanish mines South America and Japanese mines. Zheng He s explorations on the junks for Ming China were intended to created economic ties between China and foreign powers in the Indian Ocean. After his death, Confucian scholars demanded an end to exploration and China turned to isolation (limited trade to only a few ports in the south of China). This allowed the Portuguese merchants an opportunity to advance in the Indian Ocean region (connect to European exploration). 16B- Analyze the influence of human and physical geographic factors on major events in world history Maya and Aztecs: Mesoamerica Inca: Andes Mountains in South America Government.

Observation, experimentation, and the use of reason and scientific thinking from the Scientific Revolution helped encourage new inventions and innovations. Agricultural revolution: the enclosure movement, inventions to improve agricultural productivity, the use of the three field system (crop rotation), and new methods of breeding livestock led to increased population. Smaller farmers who had lost their land moved to the cities to find work. The overall growth in population provided the labor force needed to industrialize. Inventions (flying shuttle, spinning jenny, and water frame) made the production of textiles (where the Industrial Revolution began) easier and faster. The development of steam powered machinery (Watt s steam engine) revolutionized the production of goods and steam-powered boats and railroads revolutionized trade and transportation of goods.

The rise of workers unions demanding higher wages, better working conditions, and pensions resulted in industrialized nations becoming more responsive to their demands. Economics. The student understands the historical origins of contemporary economic systems and the benefits of free enterprise in world history.

73 Smith believed a free market (the unregulated exchange of goods and services) would come to help everyone, not just the rich. The free market would produce more goods at lower prices, making them affordable to everyone. Smith believed that the laws of supply and demand would help determine what to produce and how much. Laissez-faire business practices were a way to keep the government out of business and let business owners run things. Characteristics include the ownership of private property, profit, and economic freedom. 18B- Identify the historical origins and characteristics of communism, including the influences of Karl Marx; The economic system described would be a command economy. Communist ideas are a direct result of the negative effects of industrialization. Communism is an extreme form of socialism. Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels wrote a pamphlet called The Communist Manifesto in Marx s ideas became the basis of communism. The entire course of history was a history of class struggles, a gap between the rich and poor, or the haves and have-nots. Modern class struggles pitted the workers (the proletariat) and the owners (industrialists) in a revolution to seize control of the means of production. In the end, Marx believed the workers would win, control production and set up a classless, communist society. The factors of production are collectively owned and distributed by the state for the collective good (classless society with a shared goal). There is no private property, no social classes, no profit, cooperation would replace competition, and there would be no economic freedom. 18C- Identify the historical origins and characteristics of socialism; Socialist ideas are a direct result of the inequalities of the Industrial Revolution. They were inspired by the ideas of equality from the Enlightenment. Under socialism, the people as a whole, rather than private individuals, would own and operate the means of production. Socialists condemned the evils of industrial capitalism, which they believed created a gap between the rich and poor. Socialists wanted a society that operated for the benefit of all members not just the rich. However, socialism did not advocate for a violent revolution or uprising of the worker class. Instead, supporters of socialism argued that workers could advocate for change through political action. Workers initially supported socialism because of the interest in reforming poor factory conditions and low wages. Supporters believed that political reforms would protect workers and that the government should own some businesses for the benefit of state workers. Later supporters argued that government s should provide basic services in education, housing, health care, and public transportation.

81 Alliance: (a formal agreement between two or more nations to cooperate for specific purposes) By 1914, Europe was divided into 2 alliances: the Triple Alliance (Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy) and the Triple Entente (Great Britain, France, and Russia). If any two countries on either side fought, their allies would join in the war. Imperialism: (policy of extending control over foreign countries) European nations wanted to be the strongest and richest so they competed for overseas colonies. This created bad feelings and tension between European nations because they were very competitive. Nationalism: (national spirit or aspirations; devotion to one s nation; excessive patriotism) Extreme rivalries grew from nationalism, as did the creation of new, unstable countries like Serbia.

In 1917, Russia still used an old calendar, which was 13 days behind the one used in Western Europe. Not until 1918 did Russia adopt the western calendar. Causes: Russia defeat in the Russo-Japanese War (1905); Bloody Sunday (1905); later proletariat (worker) strikes; food shortages and famine; heavy loss of life and suffering in WWI; weak leadership by Czar Nichols II and later abdication of the czar, ending Russia s long tradition of a monarchy and a weak provisional government. - February Revolution : Food riots broke out across Russia. Tsar Nicholas II abdicated (gave up) his throne when he realized he had lost control, making Russia a republic ruled by a provisional government. - October Revolution : Led by Vladimir Lenin (a follower of Karl Marx) the Bolsheviks seized control of the weak provisional government. Outcome of WWI: The Bolshevik party, led by Vladimir Lenin, gained political power in Russia in 1917 (peace, bread, and land). The party was supported by the soviets, or the workers group. Lenin offered Germany a truce, and they signed the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk, which ended Russia s involvement in WWI. Russian farmland was given to the peasants and workers groups (the soviets) took command of the factories. Bolshevik establishment of the USSR: A civil war erupted between the Bolsheviks (the Reds) and the anti- Bolsheviks (the Whites), who had the support of the United States, but the Whites had been defeated. Lenin launched the NEP, or the New Economic Policy, to revive the Russian economy. To prevent the spread of nationalism among Russia s diverse populations, the country was organized into the USSR, or the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, and the Bolshevik party was renamed the Communist party. Following the death of Lenin in 1924, Stalin became the new leader of the USSR. Poster: Create a propaganda poster Timeline: Create an illustrated timeline 82 P age Revised Spring 2017
