Here are the topics that you need to review for your essay exam. You need to be ready to answer all of them, but I will choose the 3 questions you will be responding to on Friday, 12/18/09.
1) What was mercantilism and how did it shape the economic and political relationship between England and its colonies?
2) Discuss the origins of the Seven Years' War and what effect the conflict had on the American colonies.
3) Describe the Great Awakening and the impact it had on colonial America.
4) Compare the economic systems of the upper and lower South. In which region would slavery have died a "natural" death? Explain.
5) In what ways could American women of the first half of the nineteenth century be said to have benefited from changes that resulted from the social reform movement?
Each response needs to be a paragraph (at least 4-5 sent.) minimum. You will not be allowed to use your notes that day. Make sure you know the information! The Objective (multiple choice) Review Packet will be posted sometime this weekend (before Sunday night). Make sure you print that out and bring it in to the next class. Enjoy your weekend, see you Tuesday!
