Quote: “The person who says something is impossible should not interrupt the person who is doing it.” – Chinese proverb
Agenda:
1. Do Now: What is "Context" - How would you decide if someone has written "World Historical Context" correctly in an essay?
Heimler talks all about religion in the land-based empires from 1450-1750. Religion was a significant means by which rulers of land-based empires consolidated and legitimized their power.
Sometimes religion was a great unifier as in the case of Akbar of the Mughal Empire. Other times it was a fractious reality as in the case of Christianity and Islam.
In the Christian church it was Martin Luther who began to complain about the abuses of the Roman Catholic Church, specifically the practices of simony and the sale of indulgences. His complaints led to the Protestant Reformation and a permanent split of the Christian Church.
The Muslims also had some turmoil during this period. The Safavids and the Ottomans were both Muslims but not the same kind. The Ottomans were Sunni and the Safavids were Shi’a and this led to much discord among the neighboring empires.

Heimler's History Video: Empires Expand
Heimler explains how land-based empires expanded from 1450-1750. In a word, most of them expanded by means of gunpowder based weaponry.
Rise of gunpowder empires like
Russian Empire
Ottoman Empire
Safavid Empire
Mughal Empire
Ivan the Terrible did similar things with the expansion of the Russian Empire. But it wasn't all boom boom. The expansion of empires required a healthy dependence on bureaucracy as well. This video's content fits the AP World History curriculum under Unit 3 Topic 1.
