I found about 13 talking points that explain why the classical period of Chinese civilization might be said to extend all the way from 500BC to 1300AD.

9) Chapter 18 contains some powerful images. Why do you suppose Strayer chose to include these specific images? Strayer uses these images because they represent Europe in Chapter 18. Every time you see a powerful image it causes a strong feeling. That is what Strayer wanted to demonstrate, the reality and the feeling of the people in each historical event.  How do they illustrate concepts introduced in this chapter? Each image illustrates each event that made history.  The concepts are varied. But each illustration managed to demonstrate how society began to be different. We see people at a high economic level and at the same time we manage to perceive who was affected, the lower class. Among the images we can also see middle class people, the students. In summary Strayer managed to teach us the reality that was perceived at that time.     Colonial Violence in the Congo (p.803) https://images.app.goo.gl/VFSbiRWeYQG3mWbP6      These young boys...

1) What was The Great Dying? Cite examples and details from the historical record in your response. Could this be considered a genocide? Why/ why not? The great dying is when native American peoples came into contact with diseases in Europe and Africa. Is the destruction of Native American populations carried over from Europe by diseases. Because the Indians had never been exposed to diseases like small pox and measles in Europe, they had no exposure to them and therefore died. Many died from the plague, and many others died of hunger. They could not get up to search for food, and everyone else was too sick to care for them, so they starved to death in their beds.  Due to the plague Native America population decreased by 90 percent of the population.  Central Mexico, was estimated with a population of 10 t0 20 million before the Spanish arrival conquest, declining to about 1 million by 1650. It could be more of a genocide. In almost the entire book I have seen that the Europea...
