How and why did Europeans come to explore, conquer, and
eventually colonize the New World? Why didn’t other empires
do the same?
Compare the motives and reach of Chinese and European
maritime explorations in the fifteenth century.
How was European imperial expansion related to the spread of
Christianity?
In what ways did religious changes in Asia and the Middle East
parallel those of Europe, and in what ways were they different?
Consider global economic and commercial trends in the period
from 1450-1750. To what extend did Europeans transform
earlier patterns of commerce and trade, and in what ways did
Europeans assimilate into older, existing patterns? Be sure to
discuss more than just the Atlantic world in your essay.
Argue what was so revolutionary about the Scientific
Revolution. In your answer, discuss earlier assumptions of
science and cosmology, the role of individual intellectuals and
scientists and their ideas, and the impact of these ideas on the
broader society in Europe (and globally), especially during the
Enlightenment.
Compare and contrast the development of two major Empires we
have studied (at least one must be outside of Western Europe).
Be sure to address such topics as: the motivations for their
expansion (where applicable), political, social/cultural, and
religious developments, any problems they encountered, and the
ways they attempted to address these problems. What were the
consequences for both the people of the Empire and the peoples
in the regions to which they spread?
