Documents 3 and 4
-----------------
Document 3:
Violent rebellion and infighting is common in Mughal Empire.
Militancy is expected and necessary for preservation of the throne.
Document 4:
Russian emperor realizes nepotistic promotion in the ranks of the army.
Only commoners can rise through the ranks (not nobles because they would
poorly manage the army).
Topic Sentence:
Land-based empires used strong militaries to maintain control over
their lands.
Doc 3 Desc/Support:
Document 3 highlights the belief in the necessity of good combat skill
by the Mughal emperor because he fears others contending for his throne
or external enemies. These fears are justified because military action
was often necessary for external threats and the ruler's defense.
Doc 4 Desc/Support:
Document 4 notes efforts by the government to protect its people's
stability, those being reduced trade barriers enforced by a military
with loyal, effective soldiers and management. This need for a strong
military is clear in its role as an institution for the propagation of
the Russian people.
Full Length-Style DBQ
---------------------
Doc 1:
Christopher Columbus colonized parts of North America. (early)
He is starting in at missionary means (Christian conversion)
And intends to make servants of them
Notes advanced technology past the natives (iron, swords => superiority)
Doc 2:
Indian Ocean, not Atlantic.
Removed money from Venice and moved to Portugal (major colonizer of Am.)
Portugal developing sea routes in this area allowed them to develop
sea routes in other areas more easily.
``War is sustained?''
Silk Road stopping.
Doc 3:
Slave trade deeply affected Africa.
Lost of social change, and death along cargo trade.
Reduced African bargaining power because they took
lots of European goods.
Doc 4:
Colonies began to make deals with Indians.
Fur trade, gun trade, (slave?) allowed colonies to provide food.
Often the trade obtained from Indians bruoght further wealth overseas.
Doc 5:
Spanish Latin America had strict caste system based on racial purity.
Spaniards, natives, black slaves intermixed, which changed culture, but
also developed racial hierarchy => economic structure.
These hierarchies were somewhat common throughout colonies at the time.
Thesis:
Trade across the Atlantic Ocean greatly increased colonial nations'
wealth at the expense of large slave and servant systems created by
colonizers within colonies [fed by African AND native], alongside trade
with native groups for local wealth in colonies, meaning intermixing
and slight cultural change.
Groups:
- Trade with natives
Doc 4, 5
- Servant/Slavery
Doc 3, 1, 4?
- Economic Effect on Colonial Nations
Doc 1, 2
Body Paragraph 1 (Trade with natives)
Topic Sentence
Trade in the Atlantic region brought wealth back to the European nations
because colonists developed trade relations with natives for support.
Doc 4 Desc
Document 4 shows colonies needing to deal with Native American support,
goods, and information for survival.
Doc 4 Support
This impacted relations in the Atlantic region between natives and
colonists by allowing future profitable trade (like furs) or sustenance
of existing colonies.
Doc 5 Desc
Document 5 shows how this kind of relation can lead into social
integration of natives into colonist culture and how that integration
develpos hierarchy and social structure.
Doc 5 Support
This affects organized society because native servants and their (often
mixed) children contributed to culture in the region and power
accumulation in colonial nations.
