4/11/12 Notes

During the Industrial Rev. factories became huge. The factories made production faster. It took years to make things from hand. The people now instead of making things all by themselves made portions of the place. They now make hourly pay instead of production pay. The women and children worked now with the factories. With women and children working, they payed them less.

Notes

During the late 1000s, the Seljuq Turks, a Muslim people from Central Asia, gained control of Palestine-known among Christians as "the Holy Land." The Turks went on to attack Asia Minor, part of the Byzantine Emperor who called on Pope Urban II in Rome for help. He was so eager to get back the Holy Land he called a meeting of church leaders and feudal lords. Thus started the Crusades, a series of military expeditions to regain the holy land. At least 10,000 Europeans took up the cause. The First Crusade lasted from 1096 to 1099. French and Italian lords led several armies of Crusaders from Europe to Constantinople. The goal of the Crusades was to take the Holy Land from the Turks. All the Crusades except the first failed to reach that goal. The Crusaders sewed crosses on their clothes. In 1187 the muslim leader Saladin gained control of Jerusalem. Three European rulers - Holy Roman Emperor Frederick Barbarossa, King Richard I of England, and King Philip II of France - then led separate armies in the Third Crusade. The crusade lasted fro 1189 to 1192. It, too, failed. When Barbarossa drowned on the way to the Holy Land, his army turned back. Philip and Richard quarreled and Philip took his army back home to seize English lands in France. Richard and the forces under his command remained in the Holy Land, but they could not recapture Jerusalem. Richard settled for a truce with Saladin. During the Crusades, the weapon of choice for many European soldiers was the crossbow. This weapon was a powerful bow that was held horizontally. It fired a short, heavy arrow called a bolt with the pull of a trigger. The crossbow required far less skill to use than did the traditional bow. Yet it was a deadly weapon that was capable of penetrating chain mail and plate armor.

Vow of Silence

The vow of silence assignment, in my opinion of course, was pretty easy. The reason it was easy is because not everyone needs to talk on a daily basis. I have learned many things in this assignment. For example I learned that it is pretty hard to do a puzzle without talking. I also learned that it is possible to go to Mrs. McNaboes class and not talk in it. Without voice my day (inside of school) would be pretty hard. Outside of school it would be easy though because I don't talk at my house anyway. The skills necessary to finish those assignments are able to speak without your voice, reading lips, and/or doing all the work by yourself and telling your partners the stuff.

Sleeping
1. At night time people would pile onto a mattress, a lump of starw on the floor. The whole family slept in the same bed(Mom, Dad, Sisters, Brothers.) If an animal was friendly they may sleep in the bed to keep them warm.

Notes

Angelo saxtons were two german tribes combined together. Shires were like sheriffs, they collected their taxes. Alferd the Great was the first Angelo Saxton king, and Edward was the last. When Edward died, there was a war because there was no direct heir. Herald Godwadson was the brother in law of Edward. William the duke of Normany. They both wanted the throne. William was the cousin of Edward. The Battle of Hastings was the battle of who got the throne. William won and got the name William the Conqueror. He was the first to collect the census from ancient times. Census was used to tax you. They compiled the info into the domesday book. They called it the doomsday book because it was used to tax you. When he died William was replaced by Henry the 1st. Henry the 2nd replaced Henry the 1st. Henry the 2nd made some laws and Thomas Becket did not like them. Henry the 2nd said he wished Thomas Becket was dead. Three of this knights heard it and killed the Archibishop on Christmas Eve. This ruined Henrey's reign.
     King John, his son, succeeded him. He went to war with everyone. He had no money for the war so he taxed them. People of England met at Remmaneede. They came up with the Magna Carta. 1215 King John was forced to sign it. The Magna Carta made it so that King John could not collect any special taxes from the people without consent of the Great Council. It also made it so you could not just take someone's property without paying for it.
