Ch.19 test tomorrow

I have been trying to access my files on the school network since I got home this evening, but it has been down; therefore, I cannot post the Ch.19 review sheet.

The test tomorrow is on Chapter 19 Sections 1,2 and 3. Please read Ch.19, review the fill-in-the-blanks notes (2 booklets), and complete the worksheets to prepare for your test.

I will put the review sheet on tomorrow morning if you want to take a look at it before the test; however, if you review your notes and do the above exercises, you should do well:)

Thinking Critically
1. The Hapsburg empire covered a vast area – including Spain, Germany, Austria, and many colonies; the Tudors ruled only over England. The Hapsburgs were Catholic; the Tudors were mostly Protestant. The Hapsburgs were a large family with many branches; the Tudors had just one branch, which died out with Elizabeth I. The Tudors defeated the Hapsburgs in the Spanish Armada.
3. Possible answer: Richelieu controlled Louis XIII, so absolute power meant greater power for Richelieu.
4. Activities that benefited France: Louis made France a centre of European culture; he built a strong Economy; he organized a powerful army.
Activities that did not benefit France: Louis spent money extravagantly in the building of Versailles; her persecuted the Huguenots; he imposed unfair taxes; he started ruinous wars.
5. Personal response. Must support your choice with textual info.
Analyzing Concepts
2. Monarchs benefited; common people suffered
4. Answers will vary. Absolute monarchs brought both improvements and unproductive changes to their subjects. Use examples from the text.
