The Age of Revolutions
Throughout the globe, the years 1750-1914 represented massive changes: The Agricultural and Commercial Revolutions transformed how Europe and other nations farmed and did business, the American and French Revolutions of the late 18th century and later the rise of nationalism in the 19th century created the democratic and parliamentary governments that would dominate the 20th century, and the Industrial Revolution would alter the world in nearly every way. Consider some of the key developments you have read about in your lessons for this unit and write an essay of 600 words or more explaining how the 19th century-the Age of Revolutions-had transformed many areas in the world politically, socially, and economically.Â
