Mayday! Updated

I've heard some of you are experiencing trouble with the art slides. I'm reposting them here, along with the terms handout.  Also, a couple of important points for the test. First, the key to a great catena on our tests is to explain what each of the terms mean and provide the link between the two terms. Thus, on the last test, you needed to explain what mercantilism was (government policies usually taken by centralizing monarchs to build a strong and self-sufficient economy) and what chartered trading companies were (individual companies often given a monopoly by centralizing monarchs to engage in a trade in a certain region) and the link between the two (the Monarchs gave the monopolies in hope of incentivizing private individuals to find markets for the nation's goods in order to build that strong economy).  Second, you do not need (nor do we necessarily want you) to conduct research on the long essay question.  Rather, the essay serves as an assessment of Palmer sections 14 and 15 and our related class discussions of the topic of leadership by Phillip II and Henry IV. Good luck!
