Era 3 Packet
Era 3:
600 CE to 1450 CE
The big changes in the period from 600 to 1450 did not involve political boundaries but the spread of major world religions across
political and cultural borders and the development of a new, more regular system of trade that connected much of Asia, Africa, and
Europe. The spread of trade helped disseminate religion, and confidence in a divine order helped merchants to take risks. A trigger for
this change was the economic decline and disorder associated with the decline of the classical empires. Religion and commerce were
the engines of change in the postclassical period. Both facilitated the spread of technologies, ideas, and disease. Even though the
classical empires collapsed, the successes of classical civilization encouraged many people to maintain or revive classical forms. The
impact of this time period on the daily life of women was noticeable. The postclassical period saw an intriguing tension on the roles of
women as religions insisted on equality but societies clung onto the patriarchal culture.

Era 4:
1450 CE to 1750 CE
Two big changes occurred in during the period of 1450 to 1750. A number of new trade empires came into being, replacing
smaller political units characteristic of the preceding period.
Also there was a shift in trade which included new oceangoing routes across the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. The triggers for this shift
included the revival of empire building, a progression of explorations of new military technologies.
These triggers led to three broad changes. The first change was the forging of a new global economy. There were also new
global biological exchanges. Finally, this period saw the emergence of new, large empires based on guns and gunpowder.
But even with this change, there was continuity. The spread of world religions continued and global contacts did not change
regional culture patterns and gender relations. Also, there were few technological or political changes. Changes of this period affected
ordinary people in many parts of the world by compelling people to work harder to sustain large families.

Era 5:
1750 CE to 1900 CE
THE DAWN OF THE INDUSTRIAL AGE
During the period of 1750 to 1914 new technologies and economies arose in parts of the world. The
countries in these parts of the world, generally in Europe, gained powerful advantages over the rest of the
world. The triggers for this shift in world history came from a series of inventions the originated in Great Britain
and spread to Europe and the United States.
This industrialization led to new forms of work organization and the development of the factory system.
It also changed politics as a new middle class sought a political voice. Finally, industrialization provided a
context for imperialist tendencies of the West. Although these changes were revolutionary, its results were
spread out over many years with resistance on the regional and cultural level. The impact of the
industrialization is most evident with the transformation of leisure. New kinds of leisure were developed to
decrease time from work. This trend also influenced agricultural regions.
