**//1.) Have you ever been to a history museum? Have you seen any early inventions used in the textile industry, such as a flying shuttle, a spinning jenny, or a cotton gin? What were these inventions like?//** - No, no, old.

- //**Britain had an abundance of cotton, used in the making of textiles. When the cottage industry and the manufactering of clothing at home changed to the factory system, new machines were being created. Also, several key-inventors of these machines were from Great Britain and contributed to the factory system being established. Also, efficient transportation was already set up in Britain and it was further innovated with the demand between producers and suppliers.Great Britain also had a lot of naturall resources such as coal and iron.
 * //2.) The Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain. List six factors that help to explain why the Industrial Revolution began there.

- In order to get more work, they just had the factories run 24-7. Some would work during the day for 12 hours, some at night. //**
 * //3.) How did factories create a new labor system?

 - Britain, France, Germany, and Belgium, with Britain leading, were the leaders in the European Industrial Revolution. //**
 * //4.) What countries were the first to be industrialized in continental Europe? Why?

 - //**Europe moved from a primarily agricultural and rural economy to a capitalist and urban economy, from a household, family-based economy to an industry-based economy. This required rethinking social obligations and the structure of the family.
 * //5.) In what ways did the Industrial Revolution change the social life of Europe?

-// Yes, I was born in American I used to the idea, but if I wasn't I probably would have still liked the ideas of it. **
 * //6.) In the 1800s, liberals were people who supported ideas such as individual freedom, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and religious freedom. Do you think you would have been a liberal in the 1800s? Why or why not?

-//** Conservatism is comprised of religion, nationalism, and economic growth. Among these, Irving Kristol believes religion is most important (18). Why? Obviously, religion doesn’t teach people to do wrong. In fact, as most of us know, religion sternly instills good values and morals in a person at an early age. These ideas are what tell people right from wrong, good from bad. Religion motivates people to succeed in life not in materialistic aspects, but in law abiding, respectful aspects. The philosophy of classical liberalism in the Libertarian sense of the phrase includes a belief in rational self-interest, property rights, natural rights, civil liberties, individual freedom, equality under the law, limited government, and free markets.
 * //7.) Compare and contrast the philosophies of conservatism and liberalism (concentrate on Government/Religion/Civil Rights).

- The great powers had the right to send armies into countries where there were revolutions in order to restore legitimate monarchs to their thrones. //**
 * //8.) What was the principle of intervention?

- Liberals believed that people should be as free as possible from government restraint while conservatives thought opposite. //**
 * //9.) How did conservatives and liberals feel about nationalism in the early nineteenth century?

- The monarchy was overthrown, the provisional government called for the election of representatives to a Constituent Assembly that would draw up a new constitution, The new constitution was ratified on November 4, 1848, Charles Louis Napoleon Bonaparte won the election in December of 1848, government gave Hungary its own legislature, unified Italy was created. //** - I have never put the first question to thought but I actually have given the second some thought... We might have had different laws or lots of dispute by now which would affect many households and families. //**
 * //10.) What revolutions took place in Europe in 1848?
 * //11.) Have you ever wondered what our country would be like today if the South had won the Civil War? Have you ever thought what it would be like if each state were its own separate country with its own government and national leaders? How would this affect your life?

- //**Crimean War:**// The war highlighted the need for Russian military and economic reform. No railroad track was available below Moscow, imposing a tremendous burden on troop movements and supplies. Both sides fought using strategies that dated back to the venerable Duke of Wellington in 1815.
 * //12.) Identify some of the causes and effects of the following wars. Crimean War, Franco-Prussian War, United States Civil War.//**


 * //Franso-Purrian War://** In the war's aftermath, Thiers was named chief of the executive power in France, and provision was made for the election of a French national assembly, which met at Bordeaux. The assembly accepted (Mar. 1) the preliminary peace agreement, which was formalized in the Treaty of Frankfurt (ratified May 21, 1871). France agreed to pay an indemnity of $1 billion within three years—an indemnity fully paid before the term expired. Alsace, except the Territory of Belfort, and a large part of Lorraine were ceded to Germany, which on Jan. 18, 1871, in the Hall of Mirrors at Versailles had been proclaimed an empire under William I.


 * //United States Civil War://** 
 * states' rights
 * john brown's rebellion
 * industry vs. election
 * slavery
 * lincoln's election
 * missouri compromise
 * compromise of 1850

- British and French forces landed in the Crimea, in September, 1854, and defeated a Russian army near the Alma River. - The war between Russia and Austria caused italy to unite with Germany,and in turn the two countries joined the rest of Europe
 * //13.) How did the Crimean War destroy the Concert of Europe?//**
 * //14.) How did the Austro-Prussian and Franco-Prussian Wars contribute to the unification of Italy?//**

- In 1859, a group of north German liberals met to form an association working for German unification under Prussian leadership. -//** Compact that established the dual monarchy of Austria-Hungary. The kingdom of Hungary desired equal status with the Austrian empire, which was weakened by its defeat in the Austro-Prussian War of 1866. The Austrian emperor Francis Joseph gave Hungary full internal autonomy, together with a responsible ministry, and in return it agreed that the empire should still be a single great state for purposes of war and foreign affairs, thus maintaining its dynastic prestige abroad.
 * //15.) How did Prussia achieve German unity?//**
 * //16.) What was the Compromise of 1867?

 - //**The British West Indies, he maintained, could not live without American foodstuffs, but Americans could easily do without British manufactures. This faith led him to the conclusion "that it is in our power, in a very short time, to supply all the tonnage necessary for our own commerce". However, George Washington avoided a trade war and instead secured friendly trade relations with Britain through the Jay Treaty of 1794, a treaty that Madison tried but failed to defeat. All across the country, voters divided for and against the Treaty and other key issues, and thus became either Federalists or Democratic-Republicans.
 * //17.) What was the main issue that divided Federalists and Republicans in the United States before the War of 1812?

- I have read and watched A Christmas Carol, it was mainly about the way the man lived and how it affected many and how after seeing that he regrets it and trys to change it. //** - Romanticism is a complex artistic, literary, and intellectual movement that originated in the second half of the18th century in Western Europe, and gained strength in reaction to the Industrial Revolution. It was partly a revolt against aristocratic social and political norms of the Age of Enlightenment and a reaction against the scientific rationalization of nature, and was embodied most strongly in the visual arts, music, and literature. //**
 * //18.) Have you ever read the novels A Christmas Carol, Oliver Twist, or Great Expectations, by Charles Dickens? Perhaps you have seen the movies or plays based on these novels. What is the main theme of these novels?
 * //19.) Summarize the main emphases and themes of romanticism and realism, and list some of the important writ- ers and artists in these two movements.

-// They view both in a completely different way then most others. They loved nature and the idea of it, so the thought of building and population was not something they enjoyed. **
 * //20.) How did many romantics view science and industrialization?

- Many people were finding answers in science that both made sense and contradicted the beliefs of the world's pious society. //**
 * //21.) How did achievements in science and technology contribute to secular- ization in the nineteenth century?

-//** American Literary Realism
 * //22.) What literary form did realist writers prefer?
