Beginning in the late fifteenth century, a new force entered the world scene—a revived Europe. The Early Modern World was marked in Europe by an explosion of scientific knowledge. At the same time, Europeans engaged in a period of state building, which led to the creation of independent monarchies in west- ern and central Europe and framed the basis for a new European state system. The rise of Early Modern Europe had an immediate as well as a long-term impact on the rest of the world. The first stage began with the voyages of exploration that led Europeans into new areas of the world. European expansion was by no means universally beneficial to those involved. The subjugation of the Americas by the Spanish and the Portuguese led to the destruction of sophisticated civilizations, which had heretofore been isolated from the rest of the world. The expansion of the African slave trade brought untold hardship to mil- lions of victims and reduced the population in certain areas of Africa. Nevertheless, most of Africa still remained outside European control. European influence was not yet very important in other parts of the world. Two great new Islamic empires, the Ottomans in Turkey and the S. afavids in Persia, arose in the Middle East, while a third—the Mogul Empire—unified the subcontinent of India for the first time in nearly two thousand years. Least affected by the European expansion were the societies of East Asia—China and Japan. In fact China remained, in the eyes of many, the most sophisticated civilization in the world. Its achievements were imitated by its neighbors and admired by philosophers in Europe.

As you teach each chapter, encourage students to suggest entries for the time line. Students can make their own copies of the time line, perhaps in journal form on successive pages, and add to it as they proceed through the unit. They can use the information to help them prepare for the chapter assessments. OL Reading a Time Line Direct attention to the time lines that appear on each chapter opener. Point out that the periods covered in these time lines overlap. As stu- dents study each chapter, make sure they understand where indi- vidual events fall and what else was happening at the time.
