SAT II World History - June 4th

<p>Yeah my SAT II Barron’s book says the Incas were well prepared for flooding.</p>

<p>thanks Esmee16!</p>

<p>A few questions on that list are debatable. Like the ones about the most prepared for the natural disaster, king solomon quote, and the Gandhi poster. Half of those questions were my doubts and looks like I missed between 13-20 at most overall. I got 35/43 on the list. Not too bad.</p>

<p>did you guys get the one where they asked the similarities between the glorious revolution and the english civil war. I had it down to male sufferage and took down monarchy or something.</p>

<p>I vaguely remember that one. Do you remember more of the question or answers?</p>

<p>english civil war and glorious revolution was limited monarchy… should we start rattling off the easy questions so that we can maybe compile a complete list before wednesday and see if we should all cancel??? I think that would be a good idea. I have a couple:</p>

<p>1810 leader of Mexican revolution - Father Miguel Hidalgo
Aung blah blah Syi - Myanmar (Burma)
Meiji restoration - avoid western influence
2 civilizations that influenced each other - Tang China and Heian Japan
Chinese monk - looking for Buddhist texts in India
***How was Judaism different - I said concern for the poor not too sure about this one
Moveable type block printing in 1400s - western Europe, China, Korea
Inventors of Astrolabe, compass, caravel - Muslims, Chinese, Portuguese</p>

<p>I got the same thing for all the things you just posted except for the Meiji Restoration. I think you meant that they wanted to modernize to avoid being taken over by western powers or whatever right?</p>

<p>Wait, the astrolabe, compass, and caravel were Muslim, Chinese, and Portuguese? I thought it was the the Someones, Arabs, and Portuguese whatever, but it had Arabs in it.</p>

<p>What did you guys say for the philosophers and who they would fight for?</p>

<p>Was it the middle class?</p>

<p>And @swebber, jman was right.</p>

<p>Yaeh, the answer was Arabs. Chinese, Portuguese</p>

<p>yea sorry guys I dont have the exact answers but you know what I mean. Arabs=Muslims and essentially avoiding western dominance is what I should have said.</p>

<p>Also, the area which British had the most control over in the 19th century was South Asia (India)</p>

<p>Anyone else have these easy giveaway questions I wanna get a full compilation going of all or close to all 95 qs</p>

<p>I remember narrowing down that one to either Spain or China for the compass. I know astrolabe was Arabs and Caravel was Portuguese. I went with China I think.</p>

<p>oh and yea philosophers fighting for middle class because Enlightenment was used for the burgeoisie since the Industrial Revolution had not happened yet</p>

<p>Spanish, Portuguese, French, etc. are all called Romance languages because they all were derived from Latin.
Hindi, Gujarati, other Indian languages all came from Sanskrit.</p>

<p>^ Yeah, that’s right, jman.</p>

<p>I also skipped the characteristics of a Homeric hero question… that seemed really random to me as I had not read the Odyssey or the Iliad. Anyone who did is very lucky.</p>

<p>I guessed on that and got it right.</p>

<p>The answer was like physical ability, hospitality, and courage I think.</p>

<p>Awesome, that’s what I put. Physical ability etc. (I was going to put the one about strength, but the other two characteristics didn’t make sense)</p>

<p>was the one with the free countries in africa in 1825 Ethiopia and Rwanda??? I knew Ethiopia and Liberia, but I didnt know if Rwanda was independent in 1825</p>

<p>That’s what I said.</p>
