His 101 chapter 10b the black plague crisis, unrest, opportunity 1300-1500dcyw1112
The document discusses the spread of plague in Europe during the 14th century through several means: Tartars catapulted plague victims over city walls to infect enemies; ships unwittingly carried infected people between Mediterranean ports; and mass burials could not keep up with death rates as hundreds died each day. It also shows images related to the plague, including rats associated with fleas that spread disease, people burning alleged plague carriers, and paintings depicting death.
The document summarizes the initial settling of the British colonies in North America, including:
- The founding of Jamestown in 1607 by the Virginia Company in the Chesapeake region, where they encountered the Powhatan people led by Chief Powhatan. John Smith helped the struggling colony survive.
- Maryland was founded in 1634 by Cecilius Calvert as a proprietary colony for Catholics.
- The Puritans founded the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1629 seeking religious freedom, led by John Winthrop. Other New England colonies included Plymouth and Rhode Island.
- The Carolinas and middle colonies of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Delaware were also established in the 17th
His 122 ch 26 republican resurgence and declinedcyw1112
The document summarizes Republican resurgence and decline in the 1920s. It discusses Warren G. Harding's election in 1920 on a platform of "return to normalcy" after WWI. His administration cut taxes and regulation but was plagued by corruption scandals. The economy boomed in the 1920s until the stock market crash of 1929, which deepened the Depression under Herbert Hoover's administration. High tariffs and tight money supply worsened the economic crisis.
The document provides an overview of postwar Europe and the emergence of the Cold War between the Western allies and the Soviet Union. Key points:
1) Following WWII, Europe was devastated but began recovering government authority and functioning bureaucracies. However, the continent became divided between the Western allies and Soviet-controlled Eastern Europe behind an "Iron Curtain."
2) The Soviets established communist governments across Eastern Europe and purged opposition. Tensions escalated over issues like the Berlin blockade and airlift.
3) The West implemented programs like the Marshall Plan for economic aid and NATO for military cooperation to contain Soviet expansion. Meanwhile, an arms race developed and the world became polarized between the two sides.
