Alex's reflection

During this course I learned about the characteristics of a Homeric hero, how the roman republic fell, the significance of the council of Trent, what mercantilism is an about Henry VI. My explanation is that all of these things were very interesting and I was engrossed in every detail of every war and ruler we learned about.

Some things I learned about that connected to my other classes were the American revolution and how it was similar to the French revolution in the was that a lot of people died and they wanted a constitution and freedom. Another that connected to my other classes is that I knew what the roman numerals for the kings names were and what numbers they represented.  other things that related to this class are newton Copernicus and Galileo. I learned about all three of them in previous classes. newton named gravity, comperes proved that the earth revolves around sun not the sun revolving around the earth and Galileo invented a more modern telescope.  

I believe the most important concepts of this course were the wars, the people and the evolutions in technology. the people caused the wars and also invented the advancements in technology. the three things are all interconnected.

The two things that I wished we would have learned more about is ancient greece and went more in depth with the wars.

The skill that I developed in this class would be studying. I did a lot of studying in order to pass this class.
