Consider the condition of humanity, all its progress, mistakes, missteps, and triumphs, at the end of our course. In your opinion, what are the five most important historical events that brought it there?
This question is your opinion – there are no “right” or “wrong” answers. (Well, there may be some wrong ones – Ancient Aliens, for example, wouldn’t be a good one) I want you to consider, based on the information throughout the course, what your five most important events are.
For each event, explain what it is, when it occurred, and WHY you have identified it as one of your top five events. With so many others to pick from, why was this event on your list? How did it contribute to World History?
