SUMMARY:
Section 1 The Futile Search for Stability
The peace settlement at the end of World War I left many nations unhappy and border disputes simmering throughout Europe. The League of Nations proved a weak institution. Democracy was widespread, and women in many European countries gained the right to vote. However, economic problems plagued France, Great Britain, and the German Weimar Republic. When Germany declared that it could not continue to pay reparations, France occupied one German region as a source of reparations. An American plan reduced the burden of reparations and led to a period of prosperity and American investment in Europe. The prosperity ended with the economic collapse of 1929 and the Great Depression. European governments tried different approaches to ending the depression. Many middle-class Germans began to identify with antidemocratic political parties. The new American president, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, pursued a policy of active government intervention in the economy that came to be known as the New Deal.

Section 2 The Rise of Dictatorial Regimes
By 1939 most European democracies had collapsed. Only France and Great Britain remained democratic. Benito Mussolini began his political career as a Socialist, but he abandoned socialism for fascism, which glorified the state and justified the suppression of all political dissent. In Italy, Mussolini outlawed most political opposition, but also compromised with powerful groups and never achieved totalitarian control. After the Russian civil war, Lenin restored capitalist practices to prevent economic and political collapse. After Lenin's death, Joseph Stalin emerged as the most powerful Communist figure. Stalin eliminated the Bolsheviks of the revolutionary era and established totalitarian rule. His program of rapid industrialization and collectivization forced horrendous sacrifices on the population. His political purges caused millions to be arrested, imprisoned, and executed. Elsewhere in eastern Europe and in Francisco Franco's Spain, authoritarian regimes were mainly concerned with preserving the existing social order.

Section 3 Hitler and Nazi Germany
Adolf Hitler, a failed student and artist, built up a small racist, anti-Semitic political party in Germany after World War I. Hitler's Beer Hall Putsch failed. In prison, he wrote Mein Kampf-an account of his movement and his views. As democracy broke down, right-wing elites looked to Hitler for leadership. In 1933 Hitler became chancellor. Amid constant chaos and conflict, Hitler used terror and repression to gain totalitarian control. Meanwhile, a massive rearmament program put Germans back to work. Mass demonstrations and spectacles rallied Germans around Hitler's policies, chief among these the belief in "Aryan" (German) superiority. All major institutions were brought under Nazi control. Women's primary role was to bear children and care for the home. Hitler's Nuremberg Laws established official persecution of Jews. A more violent anti-Semitic phase began in 1938 with a destructive rampage against Jews and the deportation of thousands to concentration camps. Increasingly drastic steps barred Jews from attending school, earning a living, or engaging in Nazi society.

REVOLUTION!! Time for a CHANGE! Summary Chapter Overview The Enlightenment sparked revolutions in England, France, and America. The results of these revolutions were representative governments and increased personal freedoms. The Glorious Revolution England was consumed by struggle in the 1700s as Catholics and Protestants vied for control of the throne and Parliament and absolutist monarchs wrestled for control of the country. The battle between Parliament and the king heated up during the Eleven Years' Tyranny, when Charles I ruled without Parliament. Civil war broke out between supporters of the king, or Royalists, and supporters of Parliament, or Roundheads. The English Revolution resulted in Charles I of England being executed by Oliver Cromwell, a military genius who led a revolt against the Crown. The monarchy was later restored, but the conflict simmered. In 1688, King James II fled to France and the Dutch king, William of Orange, took power with almost no bloodshed. In exchange for the crown, William and his wife, Mary, accepted a Bill of Rights, laying the groundwork for a constitutional monarchy. These events inspired philosopher John Locke to writeTwo Treatises of Government, in which he defended the Glorious Revolution based on his theory of natural rights. The Enlightenment The Scientific Revolution gave rise to the Enlightenment, an eighteenth-century movement that stressed the role of philosophy and reason in improving society. Enlightenment intellectuals, known as philosophes, were chiefly social reformers from the nobility and the middle class. They often met in the salons of the upper classes to discuss the ideas of such writers as Montesquieu, Voltaire, and Diderot. In the economic sphere, Adam Smith put forth the doctrine of laissez-faire economics. The later Enlightenment produced social thinkers such as Jean-Jacques Rousseau and an early advocate of women's rights, Mary Wollstonecraft. Salon gatherings, along with the growth of books, magazines, and newspapers, helped spread Enlightenment ideas among a broad audience. The Enlightenment greatly influenced the colonists in America, especially John Locke's theory of natural rights, as it justified their rebellion. The American Revolution In North America, British control over its colonies began to unravel over issues of taxation. Multiple crises led the colonists to declare their independence in 1776 and to fight Britain until its defeat in 1783. The Articles of Confederation that formed the United States were soon replaced with a Constitution, which created a stronger central government. The Bill of Rights added important freedoms derived from the natural rights expressed by the philosophy Your key words: DEFINE THE FOLLOWING Ally Bias Boycott Export Grievance Import Liberty Mercantilism Militia Neutral Parliament Petition Propaganda Repeal Revenue revolution Unalienable rights Additional Key Terms/People Declaratory Act John Hancock John Locke principles (inalienable rights) Minute Men Navigation Acts Paul Revere Redcoats Sons of Liberty Sugar Act Writs of Assistance WE WILL CONTINUE WITH REVOLUTIONS....

Powerpoint presentation 15 Minute Review of this Chapter information on Enlightenment Section 1 The First Civilizations
The first civilizations rose from the river valleys of Mesopotamia, Egypt, India, and China. These early civilizations introduced key belief systems through law codes and religious beliefs that have influenced Western thought. It was in Mesopotamia—between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers—where the Sumerians established city-states, most of which would fall under the rule of Hammurabi. In addition to creating an empire, this ruler left his mark on Western society in a collection of laws known as the Code of Hammurabi. Along the rich banks of the Nile River, Egyptian civilization flourished. The divinity of the pharaoh and religious belief contributed to the long life of Egyptian civilization, which was divided into the Old, Middle, and New Kingdoms. The banks of the Jordan River provided nourishment for the Israelites, the founders of the kingdom of Israel. Unlike the Sumerians and Egyptians, who worshipped many gods, the Israelites were monotheistic. From these people, the key beliefs of Judaism developed, and their spirituality became the pillar of Western civilization. Civilizations also arose in India and China. Hinduism became a conservative force in Indian society that has lasted to this day. Chinese civilization was greatly influenced by Confucianism, which remains an influence today. Section 2 The Civilization of the Greeks 1 <1st ES Meeting> The polis, or Greek city-state, was central to Greek life. Not only did the polis serve as a town or village, but it was the center for political, social, and religious activities. It was, in a sense, a community. Athens and Sparta emerged as the most powerful city-states, and they became models for Western government. The concept of citizenship was developed and democracy was defined by the Greeks. The citizens ran the city-states, chose officials, passed laws, voted, and held public office. In exchange for these rights, Greek citizens were required to serve in government and fight as soldiers. Greek philosophy led to the study of history, political science, science, and mathematics. Greek thinkers called philosophers developed ideas that are still relevant today. The most famous philosophers—Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle—contributed to Western society in a number of ways, including their commitment to rational inquiry. Section 3 Rome and the Rise of Christianity
As Rome shifted from a republic to an empire, it created a system of laws and government that proved invaluable to Western civilization. Romans established the Law of Nations, treating all people the same under the law. This is a core principle of modern justice. The Romans also influenced Western culture, sharing their language and learning with future generations and building upon the heritage of the Greeks. The Romans tolerated other religions as long as they did not threaten order or public morals. However, when Jesus of Nazareth preached of God's love and forgiveness, Roman authorities took notice because they thought he was a political rebel, and they crucified him. Jesus' life and his disciples' report of his resurrection led to a new religion called Christianity. The religion attracted many followers because it gave meaning to people's lives, appealed to their emotions, and promised happiness after death. The religion also gave people the chance to be a part of a caring group and provided women with new roles. At first, the Roman government persecuted Christians. Eventually, the Roman Empire adopted Christianity as its official religion. Section 4 New Patterns of Civilization ( September 18- 27) <2nd Es Meeting> Between the sixth and sixteenth centuries, new systems of rule, religious doctrines, and intellectual movements emerged. In the Arabian Peninsula around the seventh century, a new religion took shape. The prophet Muhammad spread this new faith throughout the Middle East, reuniting a once-broken empire. Islam and the Arab state became one. Meanwhile, in Europe, faith and government were also entwined. When Charlemagne was crowned Holy Roman Emperor, the birth of European civilization took place as Roman legacy, German tradition, and the Christian Church united under one ruler. Although feudalism thrived among chaos, powerful European kings eventually came to power. This power was checked by the Magna Carta. The signing of this document won rights mainly for nobles. However, these rights were later extended to commoners. During the twelfth century, many great strides were made in government, including the Magna Carta, the development of English common law, and the creation of Parliament. Each of these concepts is crucial to the legal system of the United States. As their names imply, the High and Late Middle Ages traced a series of highs and lows for European agriculture, commerce, religion, and political stability. The High Middle Ages saw new farming practices, the growth of cities and trade, a growing population, and flourishing universities. The Black Death arrived in the Late Middle Ages, killing millions and ending this time of relative prosperity. Europeans who survived engaged in an intellectual movement known as the Renaissance, which was based on the rebirth of Greek and Roman culture. This movement encouraged excellence in worldly pursuits and new ways of thinking. These new ideas influenced a young monk named Martin Luther. His challenge to the Catholic Church led to the Protestant Reformation, resulting in a religious divide between Catholics and Protestants that would prove to be a bloody battle. Renaissance - a very quick summary Magna Carta Read the Magna Carta worksheet and compare it to our Bill of Rights. Another way to remember Continue to memorize their protections (doesn't have to be word for word) NEW!
