Age of Religious Wars - The Intro




After watching the video and reading pages 401 to 408 of your textbook be prepared for a quick quiz on Monday.
In class on Monday we will be having a discussion over the start of this period in which I will only answer 10 questions in class. So read the section (including the primary resources), take good notes, watch the video, take good notes, and come prepared to discuss what led up to this period and who were the major players during this time. Remember I will answer only 10 questions, so make them good ones.
