MAP: Unit 1 World History

Homework/In Class Assignments for Mr. Davey's

World History Class


The development of democracy in Western Europe took two distinct paths. Under one model, monarchs gained authority from the lords to become absolute and gradually ceded power to commoners. In the other archetype monarchs gained complete authority over their nations and refused to relinquish their power except by revolution. This unit will examine the development of France from a Medieval countries to a modern, democratic, nation-state and contrast it with the English model.
