The world and trade part 2
1) The document discusses the global trade networks that existed centuries ago, including family firms that spanned India, Iran, Tunisia, and Egypt.
2) It then covers the economic role of commodities like drugs, tea, coffee, tobacco, and sugar, which were traded over long distances and gained popularity in places like China, the Middle East, and Europe.

2) By the late 16th century, the Dutch had begun attacking Portugal's Asian territories, and Spain started losing its grip on its global empire.
3) The War of the Spanish Succession in 1700 following the death of the last Habsburg king of Spain further weakened the Spanish and Portuguese empires.

The capital and seat of government are Amsterdam and The Hague, respectively.
UK SIPPs - May 2010
There are three main types of UK pensions: personal pensions, occupational pensions, and self-invested personal pensions (SIPPs). All UK pensions provide tax relief on contributions. The maximum combined pension fund is £1.8 million. Pensioners can take a tax-free lump sum at age 55 and draw down income up to 120% of the Government Actuary's Department rate up to age 75, after which an annuity must be purchased. Annuity rates have declined substantially, currently around 3.6% for a 60-year-old male. Income drawn from pensions is taxed, as are funds left after death depending on the individual's age. SIPPs provide more investment choice than other pensions. Final
The american revolution
The document discusses the events leading up to American independence from Great Britain between 1774-1776. It summarizes that by 1774, Americans who had celebrated King George III's coronation were now in open rebellion against British rule due to increasing taxes and trade restrictions imposed by Parliament. The Coercive Acts of 1774 further provoked rebellion and calls for independence. By 1776, the Americans had begun establishing new state governments and drafting the Articles of Confederation for a central government while also fighting for their independence through military victory in the Revolutionary War.
Peoples and empires part 4
During the 18th century, Europeans explored and colonized much of the world. French explorer Antoine de Bougainville led an expedition around the globe in 1766. Britain's victory in exploring the Pacific under Captain Cook expanded both scientific knowledge and British national pride. However, European empires relied on force and economic interests rather than internal unity. Napoleon later assumed a similar imperial role in Europe to the previous Holy Roman Empire. By the late 18th century, European maritime power extended around the globe through settlements in Australia, New Zealand, and growing influence over China.

Charles I (Charlemagne) was crowned emperor in 800 by the pope, inheriting the Roman Empire through a line from Augustus and Constantine.

In the early 15th century, Portuguese voyages down the west coast of Africa, sponsored by Prince Henry, began changing visions of the world and eventually led to direct trade routes to Asia and the slave trade. The Spanish Empire of Charles V was not only a successor to Rome but also a holy empire, with Christianity accompanying European colonial expansion for centuries.
