a. Explain the manorial system and feudalism
include the status of peasants and feudal
monarchies and the importance of Charlemagne.
  • Feudalism was a political system in which nobles
    were granted the use of land that legally

  • The Manor system rested on a set of rights and
    obligations between lord and his serfs.
  • All peasants, whether free or serf, owed the lord
    certain duties.
  • These included at least a few days of labor each
    week and a certain portion of their grain.

b. Describe the political impact of Christianity
include Pope Gregory VII and King Henry IV.
  • The furious young German emperor, Henry IV
    immediately called a meeting of the German
    bishops he had appointed.

  • During the Medieval times, the church started
    many crusades to gain back holy land.
  • The absolute power during this period.
  • They controlled the government and the peoples
    life.

6
d. Describe how increasing trade led to the
growth of towns and cities.
  • More goods from foreign lands become available.
  • Increased business at markets and fairs made
    merchants willing to take chances or buying
    merchandise that they could sell at a profit.
  • As trade grew, towns all over Europe swelled with
    people.
  • With no sewers, most people began dumped
    household and human waste into the street in
    front of the house.

SSWH8 The student will demonstrate an
understanding of the development of societies in
Central and South America.
8
a. Explain the rise and fall of the Olmec, Mayan,
Aztec, and Inca empires.
  • The Mayas were never a single group of people.
    The amazing fifteen-hundred-year civilization
    consisted of multiple groups who shared religion,
    arts, writing, scientific advances, and many
    other cultural traits, but who never lived under
    one unified government.
  • The Olmec were an ancient Pre-Columbian people
    living in the tropical lowlands of south-central
    Mexico, in what are roughly the modern-day states
    of Vera Cruz and Tabasco.
  • For most people today, and for the European
    Catholics who first met the Aztecs, human
    sacrifice was the most striking feature of Aztec
    civilization.
  • The Inca civilization began as a tribe in the
    Cuzco area, where the legendary first Sapa Inca,
    Manco Capac founded the Kingdom of Cuzco around
    1200.

achievements of Leonardo da Vinci, the
Renaissance Man, and Michelangelo.
  • The Renaissance in Italy produced extraordinary
    achievements in many different forms of art,
    including painting, architecture, sculpture, and
    drawing.
  • The value of humanism is shown in Raphaels
    School of Athens, a depiction of the greatest
    Greek philosophers.
  • The realism of Renaissance art is seen in a
    portrait such as the Mona Lisa.

12
c. Explain the main characteristics of humanism
include the ideas of Petrarch, Dante, and Erasmus.
  • The study of classical texts led to humanism, an
    intellectual movement that focused on human
    potential and achievements.
  • Humanists influenced artists and architects to
    carry on classical traditions.
  • Francesco Petrarch was one of the earliest and
    most influential humanists.
  • The best known of the Christian humanists were
    Desiderius Erasmus.

13
d. Analyze the impact of the Protestant
Reformation include the ideas of Martin Luther
and John Calvin.
  • Martin Luther wanted full reform of the Church.
  • Calvin believed that the ideal government was a
    theocracy, a government controlled by religious
    leaders.
  • Taking Luthers idea that humans can not earn
    salvation, Calvin went on to say that God chooses
    a very few people to save.
  • Calvin called these few the elect.

14
e. Describe the counter Reformation at the
Council of Trent and the Role of the Jesuits.
  • From 1545 to 1563, at the Council of Trent,
    Catholic bishops and cardinals agreed on several
    doctrines.
  • For the next 18 years, Ignatius gathered
    followers. In 1540, the pope created a religious
    order for his followers called the Society of
    Jesus.
  • Members were called Jesuits.

15
g. Explain the importance of Gutenberg and the
invention of the printing press.
  • Johann Gutenberg was a craftsman who developed a
    printing press that incorporated a number of
    technologies in a new way.
  • It was possible to make books quick and cheap.
  • The Gutenberg Bible, the first full size book.

16
SSWH10 The student will analyze the impact of the
age of discovery and expansion into the Americas,
Africa, and Asia.
17
a. Explain the roles of explorers and
conquistadors include Zheng He, Vasco da Gama,
Christopher Columbus, Ferdinand Magellan, James
Cook, and Samuel de Champlain.
  • All Spanish explorers
  • Spanish explorers who followed Hernando Cortes
    were known as conquistadors. (Conquerors)
  • The Spanish were the first European settlers in
    the Americas.
  • As a result of their colonization, the Spanish
    greatly enriched their empire and left a mark on
    the cultures of North and South America that
    exist today.

18
b. Define the Columbian Exchange and its global
economic and cultural impact.
  • The global transfer of foods, plants, and animals
    during the colonization of the Americas is known
    as the Columbian Exchange.
  • Ships from the Americas brought back a wide array
    of items that Europeans, Asians, and Africans had
    never before seen.

19
c. Explain the role of improved technology in
European exploration include the astrolabe.
  • Improved technology such as the caravel, large
    cargo, and a shallow draft, made the European
    exploration much easier.

20
SSWH11 Students will investigate political and
social changes in Japan and in China from the
seventeenth century CE to mid-nineteenth century
CE.
21
a. Describe the policies of the Tokugawa and Qing
rulers include Oda Nobunaga and Kangxi.
  • Oda Nobunaga was the major daimyo of Japan known
    as the Maoh of war. Meaning Demon King, because
    he had thought that he would have lost the
    feeling of humanity during war.
  • Life in Tokugawa Japan was strictly hierarchical
    with the population divided among four distinct
    classes samurai, farmers, craftspeople, and
    traders. Prior to the Tokugawa period there was
    some movement among these classes, but the
    Tokugawa shoguns, intent upon maintaining their
    power and privilege, restricted this movement. In
    particular they tried to protect the samurai,
    making upward mobility from the farming class to
    the samurai impossible. The shogun Hideyoshi
    decreed in 1586 that farmers must stay on their
    land. In 1587 he decreed that only samurai would
    be allowed to carry the long sword, which would
    later define them as a class. As economic
    conditions changed, the shoguns were less
    successful, however, in maintaining the rigid
    boundaries separating the other classes.

22
b. Analyze the impact of population growth and
its impact on the social structure.
  • Population growth intensely affects the social
    structure.
  • It hurts the economy and causes diseases, and
    excess issues

23
SSW12 The student will examine the origins and
contributions of the Ottoman, Safavid, and Mughal
empire.
24
a. Describe the geographical extent of the
Ottoman Empire during the rule of Suleyman the
Magnificent, the Safavid Empire during the reign
of a Shah Abbas I , and the Mughal Empire during
the reigns of Babur and Akbar.
  •  The Ottomans are one of the greatest and most
    powerful civilizations of the modern period.
    Their moment of glory in the sixteenth century
    represents one of the heights of human
    creativity, optimism, and artistry. The empire
    they built was the largest and most influential
    of the Muslim empires of the modern period, and
    their culture and military expansion crossed over
    into Europe. Not since the expansion of Islam
    into Spain in the eighth century had Islam seemed
    poised to establish a European presence as it did
    in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.

25
b. Explain the ways in which these Muslim empires
influenced religion, law, and the arts in their
parts of the world.
  • This period in Ottoman history can roughly be
    divided into two distinct eras an era of
    territorial, economic, and cultural growth prior
    to 1566, followed by an era of relative military
    and political stagnation.
  • The Empire lost territory on all fronts, and
    there was administrative instability because of
    the breakdown of centralized government, despite
    efforts of reform and reorganization such as the
    Tanzimat.

26
SSWH13 The student will examine the intellectual,
political, social, and economic factors which
changed the world view of Europeans.
27
a. Explain the scientific contribution of
Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler, and Newton and how
these ideas changed the European world view.
  • Newton studied the law of motion and gravity
  • Copernicus believed that the sun was heliocentric
  • Galileo Galilei was an Italian physicist,
    mathematician, astronomer, and philosopher who
    played a major role in the Scientific Revolution.

28
b. Identify the major ideas of the Enlightment
from the writings of Locke, Voltaire, and
Rousseau and their relationship to politics and
society.
  • Locke and Rousseau both believed that everyone
    was born equal and free.
  • Voltaire wrote over 70 books, essays, and dramas
    QUILL PEN
  • Rousseau wrote the Social Contract

29
SSW14 The student will analyze the Age of
Revolutions and Rebellions
30
a. Examine absolutism through a comparison of the
rules of Louis XIV, Tsar Peter the Great,
Tokugawa Ieyasu.
  • Louis XIV believed as with the sun, all power
    radiated from him
  • Tsar Peter the Great was one of Russias greatest
    Reformers
  • Tokugawa Ieyasu was one of Hideyoshis strongest
    daimyo allies, who complete the unification of
    Japan.

31
b. Identify the causes and results of the
revolutions in England, United States, France,
Haiti and Latin America
  • Usually, the oppression of a despotic ruler or
    system.
  • The disparity between the haves and have-nots.
    When the gap between rich and poor becomes so
    great that the poor can no longer survive under
    these conditions they revolt and establish a
    system of wealth redistribution. Once the wealth
    has been redistributed the poor are happy again
    and eventually grow apathetic, then the rich
    begin their quiet revolution of taking the wealth
    back and continue to do so until the disparity
    between the have's and the have not's becomes so
    great that the poor can no longer

32
c. Explain Napoleon's rise to power, defeat, and
consequences for Europe
  • Napolean Bonaparte was born in 1769.
  • When he was 9, his parents sent him to a military
    school
  • His artillery instructor quickly noticed his
    Abilities and was impressed

33
d. Examine the interaction with westerners to
include the Opium War, the Taiping Rebellion, and
Commodore Perry
  • Opium war was between British and the Chinese in
    1839.
  • During the late 1830s Hang Xiuquan, a young man
    from Guangdong province in southern China, began
    recruiting followers.
  • Commodore Matthew Perry took four ships into what
    is now Tokyo Harbor.

34
SSWH 15 The student will be able to describe the
impact of industrialization, the rise of
nationalism and the major characteristics of
world wide imperialism.
35
a. Analyze the process and impact of
industrialization in England, Germany andJapan,
movements for political reform, the writings of
Adam Smith and KarlMarx, and urbanization and
its impact on women
  • Adam Smith was a professor at the University of
    Glasgow.
  • Karl Marx was a German journalist who studied
    philosophy At the University of Berlin.

36
b. compare and contrast the rise of the nation
state in Germany under Otto vonBismarck and
Japan under Emperor Meiji.
  • Otto Von Bismarck was a conservative Junker, as
    his prime minister
  • Emperor Meiji realized that the best way to
    counter Western influence was to modernize.

37
c. Describe the reaction to foreign domination
including the Russo-Japanese War andYoung Turks.
  • Japan drove Russian troops out of Korea and
    captured most of Russias Pacific fleet.
  • It also destroyed Russias Baltic fleet, which
    had sailed all the way around Africa to
    participate in the war.

38
d. Describe imperialism in Africa and Asia by
comparing British policies in SouthAfrica,
French policies in Indochina, and Japanese
policies in Asia.
  • Imperialism is the highest stage of capitalism
    and is based upon fusing banking finance with
    industrial finance to produce an international
    system of finance. This is also known as
    "monopoly finance". Capitalism is based upon
    privatizing wealth that is collectively produced.

39
SSWH17 The student will be able to identify the
major political and economic factors that shaped
world societies between World War I and World War
II
40
SSHW18 The student will demonstrate an
understanding of the global political, economic,
and social impact of World War II.
41
a. Pearl Harbor, D-Day, and the end of the war in
Europe and Asia
  • The attack on Pearl Harbor (or Hawaii Operation,
    as it was called by the Japanese Imperial General
    Headquarters was a surprise military strike
    conducted by the Japanese navy against the United
    States' naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, on
    the morning of Sunday, December 7, 1941, later
    resulting in the United States becoming
    militarily involved in World War II.
  • The Normandy Landings were the first operations
    of the Allied invasion of Normandy, also known as
    Operation Neptune and Operation Overlord, during
    World War II. The landings commenced on June 6,
    1944 (D-Day), beginning at 630 British Double
    Summer Time (H-Hour). In planning, D-Day was the
    term used for the day of actual landing, which
    was dependent on final approval.

42
b. Identify Nazi ideology, policies, and
consequences that led to the Holocaust.
  • The Holocaust was the systematic, bureaucratic,
    state-sponsored persecution and murder of
    approximately six million Jews by the Nazi regime
    and its collaborators. "Holocaust" is a word of
    Greek origin meaning "sacrifice by fire." The
    Nazis, who came to power in Germany in January
    1933, believed that Germans were "racially
    superior" and that the Jews, deemed "inferior,"
    were an alien threat to the so-called German
    racial community.
  • During the era of the Holocaust, German
    authorities also targeted other groups because of
    their perceived "racial inferiority" Roma
    (Gypsies), the disabled, and some of the Slavic
    peoples (Poles, Russians, and others). Other
    groups were persecuted on political, ideological,
    and behavioral grounds, among them Communists,
    Socialists, Jehovah's Witnesses, and homosexuals.

43
SSWH19 The student will demonstrate an
understanding of the global, social, economic,
and political impact of the Cold War and
decolonization from 1945 to 1989.
44
a. Analyze the revolutionary movements in India,
China, and Ghana.
  • i. Inefficient emperors - As the Ch'ing emperor
    held absolute power, administration in Peking was
    efficient only if he was an able man. In the 19th
    century, however, there was no great Ch'ing
    emperor.
  • ii. Lack of able Manchu leadership - As a race
    conquering China, the Manchus had always enjoyed
    powerful political influence greater than their
    small number should give them. Yet in the late
    19th century, capable Manchu leadership was,
    generally speaking, lacking.
  • iii. Downward spread of administrative
    inefficiency in the government - Without an able
    emperor to supervise the officials, they became
    more incompetent, especially when the political
    structure itself had always the effect of
    discouraging energetic action in administration.
    In turn, these incompetent high officials chose
    incompetent low officials. The harmful effects of
    inefficiency thus spread downward.
  • iv. Sale of government posts - For lack of money
    to put down rebellions or to meet government
    expenses, the Ch'ing court increasingly relied on
    the sale of government posts to enlarge its
    income. More and mote people acquired government
    posts in this way. On becoming officials, they
    squeezed as much money from the common people as
    they could.
  • v. Corruption - Corruption in the government was
    serious. High officials received "gifts" from low
    officials. In turn, low officials put government
    money into their own pockets. Heavy taxes were
    imposed on the people, who suffered economically.

45
b. Describe the formation of the state of Israel.
  • The Holocaust, the killing of approximately 6
    million European Jews by the Nazis, had a major
    impact on the situation in Palestine. During
    World War II Britain, which had been granted a
    mandate over Palestine by the United Nations,
    forbade entry into Palestine for European Jews
    escaping Nazi persecution.
  • On November 29, 1947, the United Nations General
    Assembly voted 33 to 13, with 10 abstentions, in
    favor of a Partition Plan that created the State
    of Israel. The British relinquished their mandate
    over Palestine in 1948. War broke out between the
    Arabs and Jews soon after. The 1948 Arab-Israeli
    War, established the state of Israel as an
    independent state, with the rest of the British
    Mandate of Palestine split into areas controlled
    by Egypt and Tran Jordan.
  • In 1949, Israel signed separate cease-fire
    agreements with Egypt on February 24, Lebanon on
    March 23, Tran Jordan on April 3, and Syria on
    July 20. Israel was able to draw its own borders,
    occupying 70 of Mandatory Palestine, fifty
    percent more than the UN partition proposal
    allotted them. These borders have been known
    afterwards as the "Green Line". The Gaza Strip
    and West Bank were occupied by Egypt and Tran
    Jordan respectively

46
c. Explain the arms race include development of
the hydrogen bomb and SALT
  • Arms Race, in its original usage, describes a
    competition between two or more parties for real
    or apparent military supremacy. Each party
    competes to produce larger numbers of weapons,
    greater armies, or superior military technology
    in a technological escalation.
  • On September 23, 1949, President Harry S. Truman
    shocked the world when he announced that the
    Soviet Union had conducted a successful test of
    an atomic weapon the month before. Although many
    scientists and some in the US intelligence
    community had predicted the Soviets would acquire
    this advanced technology shortly after the
    Americans, the general surprise nonetheless
    sparked a sense of panic in the United States.
  • The Strategic Arms Limitation Talks refers to two
    rounds of bilateral talks and corresponding
    international treaties between the Soviet Union
    and the United States the Cold War superpower on
    the issue of armament control.

47
d. Compare and contrast the reforms of Khrushchev
and Gorbachev.
  • Khrushchev was responsible for the partial
    de-Stalinization of the Soviet Union, for backing
    the progress of the world's early space program,
    as well as for several relatively liberal reforms
    ranging from agriculture to foreign policy.
    Khrushchev's party colleagues removed him from
    power in 1964, replacing him with Leonid
    Brezhnev.
  • Gorbachev. He was the last General Secretary of
    the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, serving
    from 1985 until 1991, and also the last head of
    state of the USSR, serving from 1988 until its
    collapse in 1991. He was the only Soviet leader
    to have been born after the October Revolution of
    1917.

48
e. Analyze efforts in the pursuit of freedom
include anti-apartheid, Tiananmen Square, and the
fall of the Berlin Wall.
  • Anti-Apartheid Movement, originally known as the
    Boycott Movement, was a British organization that
    was at the center of the international movement
    opposing South Africa's system of apartheid and
    supporting South Africa's Blacks.
  • The Tiananmen Square protests of 1989 culminating
    in the Tiananmen Square Massacre (were a series
    of demonstrations in and near Tiananmen Square in
    Beijing in the People's Republic of China (PRC)
    beginning on April 14. Led mainly by students and
    intellectuals, the protests occurred in a year
    that saw the collapse of a number of communist
    governments around the world.
  • At 06.53 pm on November 9, 1989 a member of the
    new East German government was asked at a press
    conference when the new East German travel law
    comes into force . The Berlin Wall had fallen.

49
SSWH20 The student will examine change and
continuity in the world since the 1960s.
50
a. Identify ethnic conflicts and new
nationalisms include pan-Africanism,
pan-Arabism, and the conflicts in
Bosnia-Herzegovina and Rwanda.
  • Pan-Africanism is a sociopolitical world view,
    philosophy, and movement which seeks to unify
    native Africans and members of the African
    Diaspora into a "global African community".
    Pan-Africanism calls for a politically united
    Africa.
  • Pan Arabism is a secular Arab nationalist
    ideology, founded by Michael Aflag, but
    championed most successfully by former Egyptian
    president Gamal Abdul Nasser. 

51
b. Describe the breakup of the Soviet Union in
1991 that produced independent countries include
Ukraine, Kazakhstan, and the Baltic States.
  • The collapse of the Union of Socialist Soviet
    Republics radically changed the world's economic
    and political environment. No other conflict of
    interest dominated the post World War Two world
    like the cold war did. One man is credited with
    ending the cold war, Mikhail Gorbachev. This
    however was not the biggest event Gorbachev was
    responsible for. The end of the cold war was just
    a by-product of the other major event he was
    involved with. That is the fall of communism in
    the USSR and the collapse of the USSR itself.

52
c. Analyze terrorism as a form of warfare in the
20th century include Shining Path, Red Brigade,
Hamas, and Al Qaeda and analyze the impact of
terrorism on daily life include travel, world
energy supplies, and financial markets.
  • Although most terrorist groups have failed to
    achieve their long-term, strategic aims through
    terrorism, terrorism has on occasion brought
    about significant political changes that might
    otherwise have been impossible. Moreover, despite
    the claims of governments to the contrary,
    terrorism has sometimes also proven successful on
    a short-term, tactical level winning the release
    of prisoners, wresting political concessions from
    otherwise resistant governments, or ensuring that
    causes and grievances that might otherwise have
    been ignored or neglected were addressed.
  • Terrorism was used by some nationalist movements
    in the anti colonial era just after World War II,
    when British and French empires in Africa, Asia,
    and the Middle East dissolved. Countries as
    diverse as Israel, Cyprus, Kenya, and Algeria owe
    their independence to these movements.

53
d. Examine the rise of women as major world
leaders include Golda Meir, Indira Gandhi, and
Margaret Thatcher.
  • Golda Meir The major event of her administration
    was the Yom Kippur War, which broke out with
    massive coordinated Egyptian and Syrian assaults
    against Israel on October 6, 1973. As the postwar
    Argonaut Inquiry Commission established, the IDF
    and the government had erred seriously in their
    assessment of Arab intentions.
  • Indira Gandhi was the Prime Minister of the
    Republic of India for three consecutive terms
    from 1966 to 1977 and for a fourth term from 1980
    until her assassination in 1984, a total of
    fifteen years. She was India's first and, to
    date, only female Prime Minister.
  • Margaret Thatcher She was Prime Minister of the
    United Kingdom from 1979 to 1990 and Leader of
    the Conservative Party from 1975 to 1990. She is
    the only woman to have held either post.

54
SSWH21 The student will analyze globalization in
the contemporary world.
55
a. Describe the cultural and intellectual
integration of countries into the world economy
through the development of television,
satellites, and computers
  • Televisions, satellites, and computers have all
    made it a lot easier for information to be
    transferred from place to place.

56
b. Analyze global, economic, and political
connections include multinational corporations,
the United Nations, OPEC, and the World Trade
Organization.
  • The United Nations (UN) is an international
    organization whose stated aims are to facilitate
    co-operation in international law, international
    security, economic development, and social
    equity. It was founded in 1945 at the signing of
    the United Nations Charter by 51 countries,
    replacing the League of Nations founded in 1919.
  • OPEC's mission is to coordinate and unify the
    petroleum policies of Member Countries and ensure
    the stabilization of oil markets in order to
    secure an efficient, economic and regular supply
    of petroleum to consumers, a steady income to
    producers and a fair return on capital to those
    investing in the petroleum industry.
  • The World Trade Organization (WTO) is an
    important selective, mainly private,
    international organization designed by its
    founders to supervise and liberalize
    international trade. The organization officially
    commenced on 1 January 1995, under the Marrakesh
    Agreement, succeeding the 1947 General Agreement
    on Tariffs and Trade (GATT).
