Part 1

The Question: Between 1500 and 1914, the “West” (that is Western Europe and post-1750 North America) became the most powerful part of the world. What changes and developments within the “West” made it more powerful than the other parts of the World, and how did those factors lead to Western colonization or domination of most of the rest of the World by 1914?

Specific Instructions: Remember that you are putting forward an argument here, not just restating all of the course material. Your first paragraph should introduce your topic and have a clear thesis argument. In your supporting points, discuss the major developments/events which changed the West (Western Europe and post-1750 North America). Think about what changed in the West (and what didn’t change in other parts of the World). Also show cause and effect in your supporting points, remember that industrialization led to the New Imperialism, not the other way around. You should use Candide and Things Fall Apart as evidence in your supporting points.

Question 1: In Candide, What was Voltaire’s critic of his times (the pre-Enlightened Europe of the 1750s)? In your essay provide at least four examples of things he disliked. What solutions did Voltaire offer for these problems (think of El Dorado and the final chapter)?

Question 2: Based on Things Fall Apart, what was Umuofian society (Ibos in Nigeria) like before the arrival of European imperialists, and how did it change with the coming of European missionaries (agents of colonialism)?
