The 14th century saw massive population declines in Europe due to plague outbreaks, most notably the Black Death in 1348 which killed over a third of Britain's population, reducing it from 4 million to just over 2 million by century's end. Economic and social changes followed the plagues, including a rise in wages as the labor force shrank, the end of serfdom as peasants could demand higher pay, and the emergence of a new yeoman class of small landowners and farmers. Wool and cloth exports from England increased significantly over the 14th century as the country adapted to the economic impacts of the plagues.

Britain 1066 1485
The Norman Conquest of England began in 1066 when William the Conqueror crossed the English Channel and defeated King Harold II's Anglo-Saxon army at the Battle of Hastings. The Normans then crushed resistance across England, establishing Norman rule. French culture dominated the aristocracy while Anglo-Saxon culture persisted among lower classes. England's relationship with France and neighbors like Scotland and Ireland was often defined by conflict over the centuries. Feudalism created a strict social hierarchy with the King at the top and peasants at the bottom. The Church also wielded significant power and influence. By the late medieval period, England had developed economically and established universities, though most people still lived difficult agricultural lives.
Britains Imperialism
Britain's Imperialism expanded greatly between 1815-1914, adding over 10 million square miles of territory and 400 million people to the Empire. British power was supported by new technologies like steamships and telegraphs in the late 19th century, linking the vast Empire through telegraph cables by 1902.
Mercantilism and the navigation acts
The Navigation Acts of the 1660s established trade regulations between England and its colonies based on mercantilist principles. The Acts stipulated that most colonial goods could only be sold to England, where they were taxed. All ships engaged in colonial trade also had to be built and owned by English or colonial subjects. The Acts increased smuggling in the colonies and angered colonists as England enforced the trade restrictions.
Medieval society
The document summarizes aspects of medieval society such as the feudal system, social hierarchy, and roles. It describes the feudal system as having the king at the top who owned all lands and divided them among nobles and the church. Nobles then divided lands among knights. Peasants were at the bottom. Crime and punishment tended to be harsh, with punishments like whipping, hanging, or being locked in pillars. Women had few rights and worked in fields or as spinners, while also giving their lands to husbands upon marriage. The feudal system originated in France but spread throughout Europe after the Norman conquest of England.
Industrialization
Late 18th century France had economic advantages over Britain including the Napoleonic Code, communal laws, free contracts, and established technical schools. However, years of war led to heavy debts, unemployment, and risk-averse businessmen. In contrast, Britain saw advantages from the Enclosure Movement, which consolidated small landholdings, the growth of metal and wool industries, and an early transportation infrastructure of canals. Coal mining expanded dramatically in the 1800s, fueling industries and providing jobs despite child labor and dangerous conditions. The factory system concentrated production but offered rigid schedules and dangerous conditions for workers. Industrialization led to new urban areas and worker housing but also problems with pollution and poverty.
Guercio 3rd pd. feudalism
Under feudalism in England, society was strictly hierarchical. The king was at the top and granted land (fiefs) to lords in exchange for their loyalty and military service. Serfs farmed small plots of land belonging to the lords and gave a portion of their crops in return. Feudalism established obligations of loyalty from everyone to the king and was reinforced by a code of chivalry that knights pledged to follow. It was weakened over time by events like the Magna Carta and the Black Death.
Medieval Britain
The document summarizes medieval Britain from 1066 to 1485. It describes the Norman conquest of England in 1066 led by William the Conqueror, who defeated King Harold at the Battle of Hastings and established Norman rule. The Normans introduced changes like constructing castles and cathedrals, implementing a strict feudal system, and establishing close ties with the church to strengthen the central government. It also mentions the signing of the Magna Carta and the development of Parliament. The period ended with the War of the Roses from 1455 to 1485 between the houses of Lancaster and York for the throne.
English history
The document provides a timeline of important events in English history from the Roman invasion to World War 1. It also describes the social structures of Celtic tribes, the Romans, Anglo-Saxons, and the impact of the Norman invasion and Industrial Revolution. Legendary figures like King Arthur and Robin Hood are mentioned. The development of voting rights is summarized, starting with only landowners being able to vote in the first parliament.

The crisis-of-kingship-
This document summarizes political events in late 14th century England, including two kings being deposed and killed - Edward II in 1327 and Richard II in 1399. Richard II had become unpopular due to his advisers and actions like imprisoning the powerful noble John of Gaunt. He was ultimately deposed by Henry of Lancaster's army, establishing Henry IV as the new king but sowing seeds of civil war between nobility.
Government and society
The document summarizes aspects of government and society in 10th century England, including that the Witan was an advisory council to the king but not democratic, land was divided into shires and counties with long thin agricultural plots, and manors were the basic unit of local administration and economic production with a lord overseeing soldiers and workers. The Christian church was also established.
The magna carta
The document summarizes the key provisions of the Magna Carta signed in 1215 between King John of England and rebel barons. It established that the king was subject to the law and established certain legal protections for the nobility and free men. The Magna Carta helped end absolute monarchy and feudalism in England and limited the power of the king.
Chapter 10 power point
This document discusses various vice crimes and debates surrounding their legal status. It covers topics like homosexuality, prostitution, pornography, abortion and debates around harm, consent, and decriminalization. For each topic, it provides historical context on how the laws and views have changed over time, from being strictly prohibited to becoming more accepted or legalized in some contexts. It also discusses ongoing legal and social debates around balancing individual rights and harm principles for these various activities.
The beginnings of parliament
King John was forced to sign the Magna Carta in 1215, establishing limits on royal power. His son Henry III faced opposition from nobles due to his reliance on foreign advisers and expensive wars. Simon de Montfort took control of the government in the 1260s and established the first Parliament including nobles. After de Montfort's defeat in 1265, Henry III regained full authority, but his son Edward I expanded Parliament to include gentry and merchants from shires in addition to nobles in order to obtain funding for the kingdom in the late 1200s.
Law and Justice Chapter 4 power point
Courts at both the federal and state level serve to interpret laws, clarify legal precedents, and ensure due process. There are typically four levels of courts - district/trial courts, appellate courts, supreme courts, and specialized courts. Federal courts hear cases involving federal law or where parties are from different U.S. states, while state court systems are organized differently in each state but generally have limited jurisdiction courts, courts of general jurisdiction, intermediate appellate courts, and a state supreme court. Key participants in the legal system include judges, prosecutors, and defense attorneys.

This document discusses the role of law in social change through various examples. It covers several key points:
1) The Supreme Court has played an active role in social change in the US, both expanding federal power over states and protecting civil rights through landmark cases like Brown v. Board of Education.
2) The law has been used both to induce social change, as in the former USSR attempting to re-engineer society, and to resist it, as when 19th century courts protected business interests over workers' rights.
3) There is a debate around interpreting the Constitution as a static document requiring strict construction or as a living document allowing for new interpretations as times change. The Court's legitimacy and ability to
The new trading empire
1. English sailors were encouraged to attack and plunder Spanish ships carrying gold, silver, and other treasures from the Americas, which led to England's colonial empire in the 17th and 18th centuries. English traders also began settling colonies.
2. In the late 15th century, merchant adventure companies were established by Elizabeth I and given trading rights in exchange for profits to the Crown, including the Eastland Company for Scandinavia, the Levant Company for the Ottoman Empire, the Africa Company for the slave trade, and the East India Company for India. The East India Company struggled with the Dutch for control of the spice trade in Asia but eventually established operations in India, Persia, and Japan.

Heresy by Marcos
The document discusses heresy and orthodoxy in the 14th century English Church. It describes how the English people disliked paying taxes to the Pope and supported the King when he reduced tax money going to the Church and increased his own treasury. New religious writings in the vernacular threatened the Church's authority by encouraging independent thought and challenging the Church. One such threat was Lollardy led by John Wycliffe, an Oxford professor who translated the Bible to English against Church rules, and was later forced to leave Oxford.
Feudalism
To assure power William I decided to apply a new system. Feudalism was a chain to be in contact with all his vassals but it was also a mean to assure loyalty.
The poor-in-revolt-by Virginia
Richard II became king of England at age 11 and faced many problems, including discontent among the poor who were overtaxed and forced back into serfdom by landlords. In 1381, Wat Tyler led the Peasants' Revolt across eastern England and Kent for four weeks to demand fair treatment and an end to serfdom. Though Richard initially promised to meet their demands, he later refused, saying the peasants would remain serfs.
Heresy and Orthodoxy
The document discusses heresy and orthodoxy in the 14th century Church. It summarizes that the Church had become unpopular due to greed, feudal power, and cruelty. The Pope resided in Avignon, France, which was foreign. The spread of religious writings increased literacy and focused on Jesus Christ, Saints, and the Virgin Mary. Private prayer was seen as a threat to Church authority as it allowed independent thought. Lollardy was a 14th century political and religious movement inspired by John Wycliffe's Bible translations from Latin, though they were not published. King Henry IV was loyal to the Church and had Lollards executed in 1401, though the movement was not well organized.
Scotland -Sandaig to McClure
The document summarizes information about Scotland, including its flag, famous figures like William Wallace and Robert Burns, cities like Edinburgh and Glasgow, landmarks like Edinburgh Castle and Ben Nevis, dishes like haggis and shortbread, rivers like the Clyde, and other topics like bagpipes, kilts, whisky, and football.
The saxon invasion
The invaders of Britain in the 5th-6th centuries CE included the Jutes, Angles, and Saxons. The Jutes settled in Kent and along the south coast. The Angles settled east of the Jutes and in the North Midlands. The Saxons occupied the band of land from the Thames Estuary westward between the Jutes and Angles. By 570 CE, invading forces had pushed the native Britons west of Gloucester into Wales, Cornwall, and Scotland, and many Britons were enslaved. The invading peoples formed family villages and kingdoms including Northumbria, Mercia, and Wessex, with Mercia becoming the most powerful kingdom in Britain during this period.
Civilizacion I
Christianity first reached Britain before the 4th century AD and spread across the country through both Celtic missionaries and the conversion of Anglo-Saxon kings. In 597, Pope Gregory sent Augustine to Britain to convert the kingdom of Kent to Christianity. The king of Kent, Ethelbert, had a Christian wife who influenced him to convert, establishing Christianity at the court. However, the Celtic and Roman churches disagreed over Easter and authority, until the Synod of Whitby in 663 ended the conflict by supporting the Roman church. Saxon kings then helped spread Christianity across Britain in exchange for the church increasing the kings' power.
The struggle in france
Henry V renewed England's claim to the French throne and began war with France in 1415, defeating the French army at Agincourt through superior weapons and tactics. By 1420, the Treaty of Troyes recognized Henry as heir to the French throne after he married Catherine of Valois. However, Henry V died in 1422, leaving the thrones of England and France to his infant son Henry VI. While John of Bedford helped expand English control as regent, French national pride swelled and the English army was eventually defeated, ending the Hundred Years War in 1453 with England losing all French territories except Calais.
Rich and poor in town and country
1) In 15th century England, most land was unused and populated by oak trees and wild animals, with people living in small villages and towns of less than 3,000 inhabitants.
2) By the 16th century, population growth led to more cleared land for sheep farming and trees being cut down for shipbuilding, causing social and economic problems like food shortages and inflation.
3) As population doubled between 1525 to 1603, poor people lost access to land while wealthy yeoman profited, leading the unemployed poor to become thieves and be executed in large numbers.
The Roman Invasion
The Romans invaded Britain for several reasons: to use British food supplies, and to counter Celtic tribes in Britain and Gaul. Julius Caesar led the first Roman invasion in 55 BC, and in AD 43 AD, Roman armies occupied Britain. This led to the emergence of a Romano-British culture, with Latin literacy, large and small towns modeled on Roman plans, and a rural economy featuring large farms called villas worked by wealthier Britons. Town names with suffixes like "caster" and "chester" also provide evidence of Roman influences that still endure today.
Celts Of Scotland
The Scottish Celts arrived in Scotland around 700 BC, settling in the northeastern region of Ireland and the western Highlands of Scotland. There is no archaeological evidence of their migration from Ireland to Scotland. Over time, the Celts came to dominate the native Picts and became the dominant culture in Scotland. The Celts faced enemies from the Picts in the north, Angles in the east, and Britons in the south. They also battled the English for many years. The Celts kept oral histories while the Romans recorded the Celts' wars and battles. Eventually, the Picts united with the Scots after growing weak from fighting. When the Celts settled in Scotland, they formed clans based

The connection between past civilizations and present lives
The document discusses the connection between past and present civilizations in England. It describes how England was first inhabited thousands of years ago and has seen many changes in its geography, social systems, and population over time. England transitioned from a tribal system to a unified state and saw the rise of industrialization and urbanization in recent centuries. While London and other major cities grew, new social classes and a multi-cultural society emerged in modern England.

Industrial Revolution
The document summarizes the key factors that led to the Industrial Revolution beginning in Britain in the late 18th century. Britain's role in the global slave trade and colonial expansion provided it with an abundance of cheap raw materials, particularly cotton from America, and overseas markets for its manufactured goods. Technological innovations like the spinning jenny, water frame and spinning mule automated textile production and allowed Britain to rapidly increase cotton exports, driving the rise of factory towns like Manchester. While working conditions were terrible, Britain was able to profit greatly from exports and maintain low wages for workers. The Industrial Revolution was thus closely tied to Britain's influence over Africa and Asia through the slave trade and imperialism.

Industrialization
Here are brief answers to your questions:
- The Industrial Revolution started in the late 18th century, around 1760-1840.
- It began in England because of England's natural resources like coal and iron, developed trade networks, growing middle class, and innovations in technology.
- Key causes included mechanization enabled by steam power, development of factories, growth of commerce and trade, agricultural revolution increasing farm output and freeing up labor.
- It transformed economies from agriculture to industry, rural societies to urban ones, and home production to factories. It increased production through machines.
- Negative consequences included poor working conditions, pollution, urban overcrowding, public health issues, wealth inequality, social/economic
Britishhistory1
- Pre-feudal Britain was inhabited by various groups including cavemen, Iberians, Gaels, Britons, and Anglo-Saxons. The Romans occupied Britain from 55 BC to 410 AD.
- Feudalism developed in Britain after the Norman conquest in 1066. William the Conqueror defeated King Harold and became the first Norman king of England. Feudalism established a strict social hierarchy with the monarch at the top.
- Parliament originated as an advisory assembly for the king but evolved to include representatives from shires and boroughs. This helped limit the king's power and marked the beginning of a constitutional monarchy in Britain.
Industrial society
1) The landed aristocracy in Britain declined as an economic force from 1850 to 1914 as industrialists rose to prominence. Some aristocrats invested in industry to remain wealthy.
2) During the industrial era, society stratified into social classes including the bourgeoisie, working proletariat, and landed aristocracy. Living and working conditions improved for workers after 1850 but inequality remained.
3) Rapid urbanization in Europe from 1800-1914 saw populations shift from rural to urban areas, straining infrastructure and living standards until public health reforms in the late 1800s.

The Imperial Century
The document discusses the "Imperial Century" from 1815 to 1914 when the British Empire expanded greatly, adding 400 million people and 10 million square miles of territory with no serious rivals after defeating Napoleon. The empire dominated world trade and linked its territories through telegraph cables. By the 1960s, most former colonies had gained independence but maintained links to Britain through the Commonwealth.
The Origins of Capitalism and its Connection with the Industrial Revolution
The document discusses the transition from feudalism to capitalism in Europe between the 12th-18th centuries. Under feudalism, peasants worked the land in exchange for shelter and were forced to give part of their harvest as rent to lords. The emergence of merchant capitalism and increased trade led to the rise of a new merchant class and the decline of feudal systems. Peasants were evicted from land as it was enclosed for sheep farming. Without land, they became wage laborers in cities and new industries like textiles. This marked the transition to a capitalist system defined by two main social classes - industrial capitalists and the working class.
15th Century Economic Thought
- Agricultural economy declined in 15th century Europe due to factors like famines, plagues, and wars. This led to a rise in wages and living standards while negatively impacting the ruling class.
- Old trading centers declined as new economic hubs emerged near trade routes. Merchant guilds formed and fought for control of trade routes.
- Exploration allowed Europe to access new sources of wealth from the Americas and India in the 1400s, marking the rise of commercial capitalism. The Hanseatic League dominated Baltic trade through its network of cities.
