Unit 8 Test - Political Revolutions

Our next test is scheduled for February 7th (A) and February 8th (B).  This test is over our unit 8 which covers a lot of political revolutions.  Most countries at this time were being ruled by abolute monarchs and the people will rise up with the new ideas from the Enlightenment and demand democratic style governments.  The topics will include absolute monarchy, Glorious Revolution, American Revolution, French Revolution, the rise of Napoleon and the road to Latin American independence.

The test will be 30 multiple choice questions and 1 short answer.

The chapters covered for this test are Ch. 14, 17 and 18, but the majority will come from Ch. 18.

A study guide will be handed out two class periods before the test, and all of the graded work will be handed back to study from.

Please come prepared!  This will be our last Major Grade for the 1st six weeks of the second semester.  The grading period ends on February 15th.  And please be aware that this will also be a three-day weekend since Monday the 18th is President's Day.  :)
