How did the geographic distribution of religions in Europe in the 17th century impact colonies in the Americas?
Answer:
BELOW.
Explanation:
Most attempted to enforce strict religious observance. Laws mandated that everyone attend a house of worship and pay taxes that funded the salaries of ministers. Eight of the thirteen British colonies had official, or “established,” churches, and in those colonies dissenters who sought to practice or proselytize a different version of Christianity or a non-Christian faith were sometimes persecuted.
Although most colonists considered themselves Christians, this did not mean that they lived in a culture of religious unity. Instead, differing Christian groups often believed that their own practices and faiths provided unique values that needed protection against those who disagreed, driving a need for rule and regulation.
In Europe, Catholic and Protestant nations often persecuted or forbade each other's religions, and British colonists frequently maintained restrictions against Catholics. In Great Britain, the Protestant Anglican church had split into bitter divisions among traditional Anglicans and the reforming Puritans, contributing to an English civil war in the 1600s. In the British colonies, differences among Puritan and Anglican remained.
Between 1680 and 1760 Anglicanism and Congregationalism, an offshoot of the English Puritan movement, established themselves as the main organized denominations in the majority of the colonies. As the seventeenth and eighteenth century passed on, however, the Protestant wing of Christianity constantly gave birth to new movements, such as the Baptists, Methodists, Quakers, Unitarians and many more, sometimes referred to as “Dissenters.” In communities where one existing faith was dominant, new congregations were often seen as unfaithful troublemakers who were upsetting the social order.
Despite the effort to govern society on Christian (and more specifically Protestant) principles, the first decades of colonial era in most colonies were marked by irregular religious practices, minimal communication between remote settlers, and a population of “Murtherers, Theeves, Adulterers, [and] idle persons.” An ordinary Anglican American parish stretched between 60 and 100 miles, and was often very sparsely populated. In some areas, women accounted for no more than a quarter of the population, and given the relatively small number of conventional households and the chronic shortage of clergymen, religious life was haphazard and irregular for most. Even in Boston, which was more highly populated and dominated by the Congregational Church, one inhabitant complained in 1632 that the “fellows which keepe hogges all weeke preach on the Sabboth.”
Christianity was further complicated by the widespread practice of astrology, alchemy and forms of witchcraft. The fear of such practices can be gauged by the famous trials held in Salem, Massachusetts, in 1692 and 1693. Surprisingly, alchemy and other magical practices were not altogether divorced from Christianity in the minds of many “natural philosophers” (the precursors of scientists), who sometimes thought of them as experiments that could unlock the secrets of Scripture. As we might expect, established clergy discouraged these explorations.
In turn, as the colonies became more settled, the influence of the clergy and their churches grew. At the heart of most communities was the church; at the heart of the calendar was the Sabbath—a period of intense religious and “secular” activity that lasted all day long. After years of struggles to impose discipline and uniformity on Sundays, the selectmen of Boston at last were able to “parade the street and oblige everyone to go to Church . . . on pain of being put in Stokes or otherwise confined,” one observer wrote in 1768. By then, few communities openly tolerated travel, drinking, gambling, or blood sports on the Sabbath.

The ____________ were descendants of Esau and had a stormy relationship with Israel throughout their history.
The Edomites were descendants of Esau and had a stormy relationship with Israel throughout their history.
Who were the Edomites ?The region was most likely inhabited by the Edomites about the 13th century bc. Despite being strongly related to the Israelites (the Bible claims they are Esau's offspring), they frequently engaged in battle with them and were likely under their rule during the time of the Israelite monarchy.
The Edomites were among numerous states along the King's Highway whose reliance on commerce was essential because of the region's dearth of fertile land. It is also believed that ships coming from the port of Ezion-Geber traded by maritime routes all the way to India.
The Edomites were forced to convert to Judaism in the second century BC by the Hasmoneans in order to become a part of the Jewish people.

4. Which issues in France in the 1780s would have been addressed if the Declaration of the Rights of Man and the
Citizen were enforced?
Answer:
The French Revolution resulted from two state crises which emerged during the 1750s–80s, one constitutional and one financial, with the latter providing a 'tipping point' in 1788/89 when desperate action by government ministers backfired and unleashed a revolution against the 'Ancien Regime.' In addition to these, there was the growth of the bourgeoisie, a social order whose new wealth, power, and opinions undermined the older feudal social system of France. The bourgeoisie were, in general, highly critical of the pre-revolutionary regime and acted to change it, although the exact role they played is still hotly debated among historians.
Maupeou, the Parlements, and Constitutional Doubts
From the 1750s, it became increasingly clear to many Frenchmen that the constitution of France, based on an absolutist style of monarchy, was no longer working. This was partly due to failures in government, be they the squabbling instability of the king's ministers or embarrassing defeats in wars, somewhat a result of new enlightenment thinking, which increasingly undermined despotic monarchs, and partly due to the bourgeoisie seeking a voice in the administration. The ideas of 'public opinion,' 'nation,' and 'citizen' emerged and grew, along with a sense that the state's authority had to be defined and legitimized in a new, broader framework which took more notice of the people instead of simply reflecting the monarch's whims. People increasingly mentioned the Estates General, a three-chambered assembly which hadn't met since the seventeenth century, as a possible solution that would allow the people—or more of them, at least—to work with the monarch. There wasn't much demand to replace the monarch, as would happen in the revolution, but a desire to bring monarch and people into a closer orbit which gave the latter more say.

German princes who wanted to end a peasants’ rebellion.
Calvinists who wanted to make laws that followed their beliefs.
Answer:
Correct answer is Catholic cardinals who wanted to reform the Church.

First and last option cannot be correct because it was a council of Catholic church, therefore Lutherans and Calvinists couldn't led it.
Also, this was a church council, so the answer princess cannot be taken into account.
On the other side, Catholic church needed to introduce certain changes to fight of Protestants, and therefore they decided to introduce certain changes in the church that were leading factor in the process of Counter Reformation.

During the High Middle Ages (100-1300), why did France and England form unified states while Germany remained divided
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
During the High Middle Ages (100-1300), France and England formed unified states while Germany remained divided.
This happened because the governments of France and Great Britain created vast kingdoms that increased the power of control in some European regions. And this was the result of solid leadership in each of the kingdoms.
The problem in the case of Germany was that it never has a true leader -as was the case of France and England- who could be recognized by all the tribes. No leader was strong enough to unify the different territories in Germany.

Explanation:
why didn't the USSR respond with force to the East German and Polish revolts, as they had back in the 50s and 60s?
Answer:
Eric Hobsbawm, the Marxist British historian, wrote a book called The Short Twentieth Century. The 20th Century had been shorter than other centuries because it had begun in 1914 with the outbreak of the First World War and terminated of course early in November 1989 with the fall of the Berlin Wall. The problem however, and of course we historians we like problems, is that everybody knew what we had left behind with the fall of the wall, but nobody knew what we were heading towards. As Douglas Hurd, the British Foreign Secretary at the time, put it, “this was a system [the Cold War], this was a system under which we had lived quite happily for 40 years.” Or as Adam Michnik, again my Polish solidarity intellectual, put it “The worst thing about communism is what comes afterwards.” While our populations were in jubilation in front of the television screens or on the streets of Berlin, governments were, it has to be said, seriously worried about the implications of this unforeseen, uncontrolled and uncontrollable collapse of the Warsaw Pact and the communist system. Tom Wolf, the American author, at the time had a bestseller called the Bonfire of the Vanities and a British MP that I knew at the time famously rephrased that as the ‘bonfire of the certainties.’ All of the reference points with which we’d lived for half a century and which had organized our diplomacy, our military strategy, our ideology, were like as many props that were suddenly pulled from us.

"Between 1750 and 1760, an intricate interlocking of circumstances set coal to rule the world, not through new discoveries of coal itself but rather through improvements in spinning and weaving machinery which made possible the massing of large numbers of spinners and weavers for large-scale production. . . . It was at the call of the master weavers and spinners of England that the steam engine was set to run the machines; then to furnish a blast so that coal might be used to cheapen the smelting of iron and steel so that more machines might be made; then to pump out the deepening mines so that more and more power to keep the machines running might be won. Steam raising was coal's first great play for power and it is the work through which it still holds its industrial supremacy. Between 1800 and 1900 coal-driven engines multiplied until . . . they were producing energy equivalent to seventy million horse-power; during the first twenty years of the twentieth century, their power-producing capacity more than doubled. So coal wrought the industrial revolution, the greatest revolution in all human history, which transformed social and economic life as radically as the geographical revolution transformed the earth's surface.”

a) Identify ONE specific example of the environmental influences and consequences of the Industrial Revolution that would support the author's argument.
b) Explain ONE specific example of how coal helped power new inventions that would support the author's argument.
c) Explain ONE specific example of how mining coal helped transform social and economic life that would support the author’s argument.
Answer:
A) Between 1750 and 1760 many improvements were made. Improvements such as spinning and waving the coal on machines were examples of this.
B) Improvements such as said above helped dramatically. They helped by using their power to smelt iron and steel. Because of this, economic life improved.
C) Mining coal helped transform social and economic life. It transformed life because it pumps out deepening mines. Because of this, more and more power transfers to keep the machines running.

What is the Industrial revolution?The transition to new industrial processes that occurred in Great Britain, mainland Europe, and the U.S. between approximately 1760 and 1820–1840 is known as the Industrial Revolution. The First Industrial Revolution began in England around 1750–1760 and continued there until between 1820 and 1840. One of the most notable turning points in the history of mankind occurred around this time.
The shift from manual to machine production was known as the "Industrial Revolution." Scholars disagree much about when it began and ended, although the time frame mainly covered the years 1760 to 1840.
During the Industrial Revolution, agricultural production gave way to an industrial one in which machines as well as humans were used to make goods. As a result, there was an increase in productivity and efficiency, a rise in the production of products and services, a decline in prices, greater incomes, and a movement of people from rural to urban areas.
