Global History & Geography Regents June 2017

what was the answer to the first 2 questions. Was it primary source and lack of romantic elements

Does anyone remember any of the answers that they put for the mc ?

@NewByzantine no the Tokugawa were overthrown by 2 of the clans that were profiting off trade w the Dutch (History of Japan taught me that…great video)

@milaxox74 the first one was primary, the 2nd was the inherent biases in the statements made by the eyewitnesses

The illustration of the hand was an absolute monarch (s: “the king”/ “the state”) which king Louis 16 called himself. It is not Mussolini , he did not refer to himself as a king, rather as a supreme ruler

Has anyone gotten/found an answer key yet?

Not yet

What did you guys pick for the Thematic? I did Hertzl and Bismarck and somehow started talking about prostitution. As my teacher said “for the regents essays, throw a bunch of poop at the wall and see what sticks”.

wow…I don’t even know how to respond to that :)) I used Louis XIV and Hitler. Worked out well

somehow did christopher columbus and hitler, but for columbus i was able to tie it back to the theme by saying he indirectly influenced the natives to fight for freedom from foreign rule. opinions?

I picked hitler and Bismarck I was pretty happy with how it came out

i thought i was gonna be so unique picking Hitler…guess not lol (because he wasn’t listed)

I said lack of romantic elements for number 2

@bhargavaa same I also put that for number 2

I put biases because it said in the reading something about it being difficult to find the truth because people speak different according to their preferences

@J1234567890 yea thats what I put. i heard nothing about romance in any of that passage

Wait what q46 and 47 ? I don’t remember them @Ribot123

Question 46 asked why the US passed the Treaty of Kanagawa. The answer is to influence their trade relations
Question 47 asked what effect the Treaty had on Japan. The answer was the Tokugawa Shogunate fell
