Hello!
Today we started by watching a Crash Course History clip on independence movements in South America to supplement our readings, here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBw35Ze3bg8
Then, we made posters in causes of the independence movements in colonies across the western hemisphere. Here’s the prompt: What were the most important causes of Independence movements in the colonies of Portugal, Spain and England? Certain causes were of greater or lesser importance in different colonies. It is your task to create a poster that clearly illustrates the relative importance of each type of cause in each of the 3 nation’s colonies. GO! Political, Economic, Social, Intellectual, Religious.
Homework: Read pages 13-20 on Foreign Intervention and the conflicts that led to war.
