June 2010: World History

<p>^yeah protected people are the jews & christians</p>

<p>yes, “people of the book” if I recall correctly. and I had no idea what devshirme was but I reasoned if it was a policy it was probably about ethnic groups. turns out I was right?</p>

<p>I don’t recall the queen elizabeth/trees one…</p>

<p>@mastermind93: oh wait, i think i remember the elizabeth one. i think the answer was imperial rivalries or something along those lines.</p>

<p>which was the largest aztecs, mayas, olmecs?</p>

<p>the question with the scandinavian colonies: the answer was DEFINITELY the Americas, because the question asked where they had established colonies by 1300 C.E.</p>

<p>The Scandinavian question should be the Americas since Leif Ericson’s (American) colony disintegrated after about 100 years or so.</p>

<p>yeah that one was about trying to claim land before others did so it was imperialism. what was the about not a reason for 19th century imperialism? wasn’t it to relieve social tensions back home or something?</p>

<p>which did you put for having the largest land? aztecs, mayas, olmecs?</p>

<p>lol I actually put Incas on that one. probly wrong</p>

<p>[Inca</a> Empire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia](<a href=“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inca_Empire]Inca”>Inca Empire - Wikipedia)
says the Inca empire was the the largest empire in pre-Colombian america.</p>

<p>does that make the Incas the correct answer?</p>

<p>I said Inca for that one because I remembered something about rulers expanding because they needed land to secure a place in eternity. The one about 19th century imperialism was that they did NOT necessarily want to adapt parts of African/indigenous cultures, I believe. The Queen Elizabeth one was imperial rivalries.</p>

<p>I’m pretty confident I got perfect MC on the AP WH exam, so this curve ought to be very, very lenient (like 12 wrong lenient) because I found the questions to be very difficult. It’s looking like I omitted 4 and got 4+ wrong. Hopefully an 800. Math I was another story…</p>

<p>so far I have taken physics, Math llc, chem and got 800s on all of them. but this world history test was another story…i’d b very happy if I got at least a 700…</p>

<p>same hackers,</p>

<p>I guess this post is almost dead now. lets just all hope that we get 800s</p>

<p>I’m pretty sure it’s Aztecs- look at the maps for Aztecs v Incas- Aztecs is much bigger.</p>

<p>i probably wont take the test until next year</p>

<p>but i would say in order from largest to smallest</p>

<p>aztecs, mayas, olmecs</p>

<p>damn it I always pick the wrong one between last two choices</p>

<p>lol @gohackers
i’m not sure if it’s the right one or not
WHY DOES COLLEGEBOARD HAVE TO SCREW US OVER AND MAKE THIS SO MUCH HARDER THAN THE AP TEST? grrrr</p>

<p>I’m pretty sure it was the incas. the aztec was pretty large but when you look at the incan empire, it spanned the entire andes and moved inland significantly as well</p>
