YOU NEED TO DO YOUR OWN HOMEWORK, but I'll do you a small favor....\n\nIn 1750, the world was known to be round.  In 1450, the world was widely and officially considered flat.\n\nNow, think of what historical incident brought about this change of thought.  You got it?  Good - now think about the fortunes of various peoples and nations WORLDWIDE that accrued from the historical incident you figured out.\n\nYou now have the makings of a brainstorm that will lead you to a theme, an outline, and an essay.

no.  it changes over millions of years as the universe changes and our relationship to the sun changes, but i'd guess it was pretty close as to what is now.

I would choose to live in the 1500's. \nI would have liked to live in a castle or out in the wilderness. Dependant only on myself and my sword to provide what I needed. Honor, Respect, and Humanity were your code and how you were judged. Actions spoke louder than words and dollars back then.\nIt was a less complex way to live than it is now.

Well, the early colonies didn't have techonoly, cars, music like today, movies, clothes, food, the knowledge, and the books that we have today. There are PLENTY of changes from today and the colonies. It's pretty simple if you sit down and think about it.

Many of the people who came to America from Europe in the 1700-1800's were people seeking religios freedom that they didn't have in Europe at that time. Much of that religios ferver has been passes through the years to the current Americans.

Nice answer...but the question says 1800s and your answer says 1900s?

fairly good as they were entering hte renaisance and feudalism was declining as a merchant class emerged creating specification in jobs. this left people open to explore other, more creative options, and it brought europe out of the subsistance livng it had been in in the so called "dark ages" or medieval times...this is when the arts were pursued, and actually encouraged to be studied. of course there were wars goign on...like with england as usual(this was the time of henry the 8th, queen mary tudor, and eventually in 1588, elizabeth...) but they were doing fairly well, captureing calais back form the english even...

1895...or 1900 depending on how you look at it.

It has to do with the the older versions of English. For example, back in the 16- and 1700 (possibly into the 1800s as well) the English "S" looked like an "F".

for 2,000 years, there's always been a "contemporary" period. And that means in the year 2150, those people will think they are "contemporary" and we are near-ancient.\n\nSo the real challenge here,.. are we so much different in this "contemporary" period as say... those folks were 200 years ago?? Does the Bible (typically) address outside events, or rather the nature of man's heart, his need for relationships, even with his maker, and how to cross over from sin and error to righteousness and success?\n\nThese things are 'timeless', - no matter how modern you think you are.

Well, first of all, back then there were no satellites or airplanes.  There was no way to know what the world "looked like" unless someone mapped it out...specific coastlines, etc.  No one person could do it all...and each of those men were important for learning new things about different parts of the world.  So...the maps were "changed" each time something new was learned.  And, the maps could be changed if someone found something new about an already existing piece of map.  It's sort of like science.  What was known about science and technology 50 years ago is very different than what we know today.  So, as a result, the science books have changed.  If you're 11, chances are the science book you have today is totally different than the one I used a million years ago.  It's the same idea with the maps back in 1492...\n\nThe following link has a listing of all the great historical explorers.  Their biographies and routes, where applicable, are included.  Each link provides even more links...so you should have enough information that it would take you all day to read everything.  Good luck!\n\nhttp://edtech.kennesaw.edu/web/explorer.html

that's a unique question... but Man started off in Africa, but migrated to the rest of the Earth.  When they got to Europe, the climate and environment changed the appearance of the Original man.   Why would you even want to know "how long did it take for people to change" ??  how would that help you?  why don't you ask why the Europeans would historically think they are better than Asians, Native Americans, and Africans in the world?  Or why any race would think they are superior and almost kill off a race and take --to that same land,--  another race they feel superior to?  Or ask why some white people hate the fact that their ancestors are from the continent they despise so much. damn, I got way off subject..

The Industrial Revolution influenced the economic and social life of present society because of the simple fact that it was considered a REVOLUTION. Because of the different advances in technology and ideology behind advancing in both education and science. The Industrial Revolution changed a great deal of things that has instilled a sense of wanting more and more today in all fields of science. The economy boomed because of faster production rate and easier manufacturing, and social life changed drastically from making things at home to going to department stores. Agriculturally, economically, socially, and ideologically... The Industrial revolution has influenced the way ALL countries today have tried to succeed in becoming world powers.\n\nFeel Free to take this... this is the "get a good grade but dont bore the hell outta everyone" answer
