You wrote your Chapter 7 Quiz, hopefully, you will be able to get the results of this quiz this week. I would like to remind you that you have your Imperialism Research Project due a week from today. We have finished the textbook work for Unit 2, so I would suggest to you that you need to be working on this project exclusively for the next week. I'm posting some useful hyperlinks here that may help you with your research:

• CIA World Factbook
• Nation Master
• Countries of World (e-book, use the password: chartwell to access it, click on Gale Virtual Reference Library, then click on the hyperlink next to Nation and World, then click on Countries of the World and Their Leaders) this is the e-book that I showed at the beginning of our time in the library.
