Learning Goal: You will use methods of historical inquiry to locate, gather, evaluate, and organize research materials so that you can assess various types of interactions that have occurred between Europeans and non-Europeans. You will then communicate the results using a formal argumentative essay.
In this essay you will use the knowledge you have gained in Unit 1 to examine the exchanges between two groups (one European and one non-European) at the time of initial contact.
You will be required to make an argument based on the following statement.
“Although it has often been stated that the nations of Western Europe were far superior to the rest of the world at the time of their initial contacts, this, in fact, is not true. ”
Content: In your essay you will have to argue that this statement is true or false. Use the period of approximately 1492 - 1650 as the time frame for your argument. Pick two groups to compare, one European and one non-European, which came into contact with eacii other in this time period (Examples could include: Portugal and South Eastern Africa, Spain and the Aztecs, French and the Huron, the English and the Beothuk). Compare them based on *5 criteria that you would use to judge a “superior” society (Examples: technology, government, human rights, social organization, political organization, religion and philosophy, efc).Remain source for this essay should be your textbook but you are expected to use at least one other good source.
Format: Your essay should include an introductory parapragh, 3 body paragraphs and a concluding paragraph.
The introduction should include the following:
- an introductory sentence that introduces the overall topic. *
sentences that outline the 3 areas you have chosen to use for your comparisons and should be put in the order that you will be using in your essay.

topic sentence
