Introduction to World History

Welcome to World History and Geography 1! I really want to teach themes that students will see in history, such as : (political systems) bands, tribes, chiefdoms, states; (economic activity) extraction, manufacturing, service, research; (class systems) peasants, landowners, religious leaders, monarchs; (civilization) hunter-gatherer, nomadic herder, farmer, and city-dweller; Rules, duty, justice. Unifying themes will be stressed. We are starting at the age of empires just to cover our bases. More to come soon!
