September 27


I delivered a presentation/lecture on "The Congress of Vienna". I will be sending this presentation to you today. I will also be sending you some documents as well, so please check your e-mail and print off these notes. Please check the upcoming important dates to keep straight when certain homework assignments are due.



  • Napoleon's Domestic Policy (chart) is due tomorrow
  • Napoleon's Conquests (chart) is due tomorrow
  • Napoleon Wordsearch and Crossword puzzle are due tomorrow
  • Napoleonic Europe Map is due Monday, October 1st
  • Chapter 5 Questions (Q1-5, 12) are due Tuesday, October 2nd
  • Nationalism Test is on Thursday, October 4th (please check the study guide here)



This might be helpful for dealing with the Congress of Vienna questions about the political spectrum:





I did a homework check on your Chapter 3 Key Terms and Questions at the beginning of class. While I was doing the homework check I had you copy out the web (Figure 4-1 on page 70 in your text). I had you answer the question: How can these relationships be explained? The expectation was that you went "deep" with your answers and that you didn't just stick with a surface-level answer.
Next, I broke you into brainstorming groups to complete the Skill Path on page 71. Essentially, you brainstormed what impacts globalization has on individual and collective identities. Hopefully, you were able to brainstorm some specific examples. Next, in your groups you were to choose the Top 5 items that had an impact on individual and collective identities, and be able to provide a justification for your ranking.
I assigned the Chapter 4 Key Terms and Questions for homework tonight.

No, I'm sorry, I forgot to do that. Thanks for the reminder I'll do that tonight.
The answer for that one is the Louvre.

I have to give you some notes on the board about that one. Essentially the political spectrum has gotten a little bit more complicated with the Congress of Vienna. Imagine your political spectrum. From the far left to the right you have the following: radicals, liberals, moderates, conservatives and on the far right are the reactionaries. This is the 19th century political spectrum. I have a diagram that I'll post that might help explain this all. Reactionaries wanted to return to the old days, the days of absolute monarchy with legitimate rulers on the thrones of Europe.
