Chapter 18

Chapter 18 is based on the industrialization era. This era took place in Western Europe but mainly took place in Great Britain. This era started at around 1750 and ended in 1900. This era brought the Scientific Revolution to people's eyes and became a big success. If you don't know what the Scientific Revolution is, it is when science and technology was brought into this world and was becoming a success. Everyone started to use science and technology to basically live everyday life. Energy was also used by people so their new technology can be used into work.

Chapter 17 Continued

The following pages we were suppose to read talked about the French Revolution. France was not in their state of mind. During this time France was becoming bankrupt and taxes was becoming an issue for everybody as well. Not only was France in a bad situation but King Louie XVI wanted to raise taxes for all the classes. I honestly don't agree with what King Louie is doing. The only reason why he is doing it is because he wants more money. I'm sure this turned out to be a great deal of conflict. Everyone should have their own equal right and that is what they also talked about in the chapter.. "men should have equal right" which states in the Rights of Man and Citizen.

Chapter 17

From reading all the chapters I thought this chapter was the most interesting. This chapter talks about the Atlantic Revolution. The Atlantic revolution was very resourceful when it came to bringing out new and improve ideas. To name a few some of ideas were liberty, equality, and free trade. Many of these new ideas caused controversy between people. Besides learning about the Atlantic Revolution we also learn about the American Revolution, French Revolution, Haitian Revolution, and last but not least the Spanish American Revolution. As we read along the chapter it says that the American revolution had controversy between the thirteen colonies and the Britain Revolution. During this time period the French Revolution had their own personal problems. It is is said that the French Revolution was more violent then the American Revolution. The Haitian Revolution had controversy against the French Revolution. Last but not least the Spanish American Revolution brought themselves to North America. But all in all at the end all the revolutions eventually benefited and supported each other as much as possible.

Intro. Part 5

It surprised me while I was reading the chapter how well Europe was well known. Europe was not well known for the good but well known for the worse as well. Europe took over a lot of countries and also took over America. People were under control by Europe and so was many other countries. Not only did Europe was taking over parts of the world but people tried to control Europe as well since it was a big country.... Europeans were also known to be very smart. Europe had a lot of ideas which made people try to take control of Europe.

Chapter 16; Part 2

This part of the chapter talks about the Scientific Revolution with church and Christianity. Since Europe was the start of the rise of Christianity they brought new ideas and challenges to the whole idea of Christianity. The Revolution of science brought  a lot of conflict with people, people did not support this at all. All these new beliefs were spreading like wild fire. During this revolution kids were forced to learn religion while they were in school. In my opinion I don't think it's right for kids to be forced to learn religion. It should be something you want to do and not something you have to do.
