WHAP Day 54 - Feudalism, Byzantium, & Project Introduction

Day 5 - PAW 5

KC3.2.I. Empires collapsed in different regions of the world, and in some areas were replaced by new imperial states or political systems.

KC3.3.II.  The fate of cities varied greatly, with periods of significant decline and periods of increased urbanization buoyed by rising productivity and expanding trade networks.

Objectives:  Compare feudalism in Japan and Europe.  Identify the factors that led to the emergence of feudalism in western Europe and the Byzantine empire in Eastern Europe.

Task:  Good morning!  When you arrive to class, please open up your notes from yesterday.  We'll spend the first portion of class presenting your information from yesterday.  Then, I'll explain the process we'll use for examining the Crusades on Thursday and you'll choose topics for your infographic project.

Focus Question 1:  To what degree were the societies of medieval Western Europe and medieval Japan different?  What accounts for the similarities in these two societies?

Focus Question 2:  To what extent were feudal Europe and the Byzantine Empire significant breaks from or continuations of the Roman Empire?
