Archeological evidence indicates that during the

Paleolithic era, hunting-foraging bands of humans gradually migrated from their origin in East Africa to the Americas, adapting their technology and cultures to new climate regions.

Humans used fire in new ways: to aid hunting and foraging, to protect against predators, and to adapt to cold environments.

Humans developed a wider range of tools specially adapted to different environments from tropics to tundra.

Economic structures focused on small kinship groups of hunting-foraging bands that could make what they needed to survive. However, not all groups were self-sufficient; they exchanged people, ideas, and goods.

Key Concept 1.1. Big Geography and the Peopling

of the Earth

Page 4: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

Beginning about 10,000 years ago, the Neolithic

Revolution led to the development of new and more complex economic and social systems.

Possibly as a response to climatic change, permanent agricultural villages emerged in Mesoamerica and the Andes.

Agriculture led to more reliable food supplies, which increased the population As a result, these surpluses led to labor specialization and development of elites.

Increased technology also led to increase wealth and trade, which created more hierarchical social structures and promoted patrilineal societies.

Key Concept 1.2. The Neolithic Revolution and Early Agricultural

Societies

Page 5: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

Core and foundational civilizations developed

in a variety of geographical and environmental settings where agriculture flourished. Olmecs in Mesoamerica and Chavin in Andes

The first states developed in core civilizations Culture played a significant role in unifying states through laws, language, literature, religion, myths, and monumental art.

In the Americas, monumental architecture, urban planning and record keeping all began to develop.

Key Concept 1.3. The Development and Interactions of Early Agricultural, Pastoral,

and Urban Societies

Period 2: 600 B.C.E. – 600 C.E.

Organization and Reorganization of Human Societies

Page 8: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

Codifications and further developments of

existing religious traditions provided a bond among the people and an ethical code to live by. Most Mesoamerican and Andean religions were polytheistic.

Artistic expressions, including literature and drama, architecture, and sculpture, show distinctive cultural developments. Mesoamerica developed a distinct architectural

style.

Key Concept 2.1. The Development and Codification of Religious and Cultural

Traditions

Page 9: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

The number and size of key states and empires grew

dramatically by imposing political unity on areas where previously there had been competing states.

Teotihuacan and the Mayan city-states (Mesoamerica)

Moche (Andean South American)

Empires and states developed new techniques of imperial administration based, in part, on the success of earlier political forms.

Administrative institutions such as central governments and bureaucracies were created. These institutions also projected military power over larger areas through diplomacy, supply lines, defense and fortification, and the creation of a military or soldier class.

Key Concept 2.2. The Development of States and

Empires

Page 10: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

New technologies facilitated long-distance

communication and exchange. The invention of things such as the yoke, saddle,

and stirrup made the use of pack animals (particular llamas in the Americas) possible and practical.

Alongside the trade in goods, the exchange of people, technology, religious and cultural beliefs, food crops, domesticated animals, and disease pathogens developed across far-flung networks of communication and exchange.

Key Concept 2.3. Emergence of Transregional Networks of Communication

and Exchange

Period 3: 600 C.E. – 1450 C.E.

Regional and Transregional Interactions

Page 13: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

Improved transportation technologies

and commercial practices led to an increased volume of trade, and expanded the geographical range of existing and newly active trade networks.

Trading cities began to be formed such as Tenochtitlan in Mesoamerica and Cahokia in North America

Rulers imported luxury goods for public performances and for their upscale lifestyle

Teotihuacan was a state that was also one of the main producers of tools and jewelry

Teotihuacan’s economy and religious impact attracted many pilgrims from far off lands and prompted them to become permanent citizens

Key Concept 3.1. Expansion and Intensification of Communication

and Exchange Networks

Page 14: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

Empires collapsed and were reconstituted; in

some regions new state forms emerged. Toltec’s militarized the empire Warriors were very important and many pieces of

artwork depicted warfare After the fall of Toltec’s, Aztec empire rose Aztec’s did not have a two leader empire like the

Toltec, they had one supreme ruler Tribute system was added by the Aztecs Defeated states weren’t conquered, but instead

forced to pay tribute

Key Concept 3.2. Continuity and Innovation of State Forms and Their

Interactions

Page 15: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

Innovations stimulated agricultural and industrial

production in many regions. Mainly agricultural because elites forced peasants onto

farms so they could produce food to support the large population

Built irrigation systems and terraces to support influx in agriculture

Chinampas (raised fields created along lake shores) became a popular tool because it resisted frost and allowed for year round agriculture

Did not discover the wheel for a very long time and utilized pulleys to create buildings instead

Key Concept 3.3. Increased Economic Productive Capacity and

Its Consequences

Period 4: 1450 C.E. – 1750 C.E.

Global Interactions

Page 18: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

Technological developments in cartography, navigation,

and ship-building made transoceanic crossings possible. Northern Atlantic crossings for fishing and settlements continued

and spurred European searches for multiple routes to Asia. The new global circulation of goods was facilitated by royal

chartered European monopoly companies that took silver from Spanish colonies in the Americas to purchase Asian goods for the Atlantic markets.

The Atlantic system involved the movement of goods, wealth, and free and unfree laborers, and the mixing of African, American, and European cultures and peoples.

European colonization led to the spread of disease and vermin in the Americas which killed large amounts of the native populations.

American foods became staples across the Atlantic and plantations with forced labor began to arise.

Afro-Eurasian crops, animals, and slaves were brought to the Americas.

Key Concept 4.1. Globalizing Networks of Communication and

Exchange

Page 19: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

Traditional peasant agriculture increased and changed,

plantations expanded, and demand for labor increased. These changes both fed and responded to growing global demand for raw materials and finished products.

The growth of the plantation economy in America increased the demand for coerced labor such as African slaves, the hacienda and encomienda systems, the Spanish adaptation of the Inca mit’a, etc.

As new social and political elites changed, they also restructured new ethnic, racial, and gender hierarchies. e.g. The Creole elites in Spanish America

The massive demographic changes in the Americas resulted in new ethnic and racial classifications.

Key Concept 4.2. New Forms of Social Organization and Modes of

Production

Page 20: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

Rulers used a variety of methods to legitimize and

consolidate their power. This included religious ideas (e.g. human sacrifice

practiced by the Mexicas/Aztecs). States treated different ethnic and religious groups in ways that

utilized their economic contributions while limiting their ability to challenge the authority of the state.

The Spanish created a separate “República de Indios” for the native population.

Imperial expansion relied on the increased use of gunpowder, cannons, and armed trade to establish large empires in the Western Hemisphere. The Portuguese, Spanish, Dutch, French, and British all began

to establish maritime empires in the New World. Competition over trade routes, state rivalries, and local resistance

all provided significant challenges to state consolidation and expansion. Piracy in the Caribbean is an example

Key Concept 4.3. State Consolidation and Imperial

Expansion

Page 21: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

Religion began to be introduced through

foreign conquests. Catholicism was introduced during colonization

and some early colonists practiced forced conversion of native people to Catholicism.

Throughout this period in time, religion continued to play a huge role in the cultural aspect of society. Over time, it also began to intertwine with

government affairs.

Changes and Continuities Over Time: 1450 C.E. –

1750 C.E.

Period 5:1750 C.E -1900 C.E.

Industrialization and Global Integration

Page 24: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

New patterns of trade and production developed and

further integrated the global economy as industrialists sought raw material and new markets for the increasing amount and array of goods produced in their factories.

The need for raw materials for the factories and increased food supplies for the growing population in urban centers led to the growth of export economies around the world that specialized in mass producing single natural resources.

The rapid increases in productivity caused by industrial production encouraged industrialized states to seek out new consumer markets for their finished goods. Latin America became important market for European and American consumer goods

Key Concept 5.1: Industrialization and Global

Capitalism

Page 25: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

Industrialized states (particularly America) practiced

economic imperialism on Latin American countries. The 1808 ban against the international slave trade in

America as well as the anti-slavery movement stopped most American-African trade and caused plantations to fail.

The decline of plantations required the United States to turn elsewhere for crops and raw materials, particularly Latin America. The U.S. began a form of economic imperialism that resulted in many foreign interests monopolizing Latin American economies. Examples include the United Fruit Company and the U.S. control of Cuban sugar.

New ideas about nationalism, race, gender, class, and culture also developed that facilitated the spread of transoceanic empires, as well as justified anti-imperial resistance and the formation of new national identities.

Key Concept 5.2: Imperialism and Nation State Formation

Page 26: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

Increasing discontent with imperial rule propelled

reformist and revolutionary movements. The American Revolution - taxes and no representation In 1804, Haiti was the first Latin American country to

be independent. Slaves and the gens de couleur (led by Toussaint) rose up against the white planters who has abused them.

Increasing questions about political authority and growing nationalism contributed to anticolonial movements. Napoleon's conquest of Spain triggered the revolutions

that ensued. Feeling no loyalty to a French king, the creoles (led by Bolivar and San Martin) broke away and freed Spanish colonies.

Key Concept 5.3: Nationalism, Revolution, Reform

Page 27: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

Migration in many cases was influenced by changes in

demography in both industrialized and unindustrialized societies that presented challenges to existing patterns of living European and Asian immigration to Latin America (particulary

Argentina, Chile, Brazil) increased dramatically because of indentured servitutde, which had replaced slavery.

Receiving societies did not always embrace immigrants, as seen in the various degrees of ethnic and racial prejudice and the ways states attempted to regulate the increased flow of people across their borders. Asians were more often discriminated against than Europeans.

Europeans were also stereotyped. People blamed immigrants for causing hardships for native

workers by accpeting low wages and threatened national culture by resisting assimiltion.

Key Concept 5.4: Global Migrations

Period 6: 1900 C.E. - Present

Accelerating Global Change and Realignments

Page 30: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

Researchers made rapid advances in science that spread

throughout the world, assisted by the development of new technology. Modern communication and transportation eliminated the problem

of global distance.

The Green Revolution produced food for the growing global population as it changed agricultural methods.

Medical innovations eradicated diseases that plagued poorer nations in Latin America.

Oil and nuclear power raised productivity and production. Humans exploited natural resources.

Effects include deforestation, global warming, and pollution.

Improved military technology meant that larger amounts of people died in attacks.

Key Concept 6.1. Science and the Environment

Page 31: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

Movements to redistribute land and resources developed within

states in Latin America, sometimes advocating communism and socialism.

World War I and World War II were the first “total wars.” Governments used ideologies, including fascism, nationalism and communism, to mobilize all of their state’s resources, including peoples, both in the home countries and the colonies or former colonies, for the purpose of waging war.

The shift of global political and economic balance after World War II led to the emergence of the U.S. and Soviet Union as superpowers. The Cold War broke out as an ideological struggle between capitalism and communism New military alliances (NATO and Warsaw Pact) led to proxy

wars in Latin America as the U.S. and the Soviet Union fought to ally with smaller nations.

Key Concept 6.2. Global Conflicts and their

Consequences

Page 32: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

At the beginning of the century in the United States, the

government played a minimal role in their national economy. With the onset of the Great Depression, governments began to take a more active role in economic life.

At the end of the twentieth century, many governments encouraged free market economic policies and promoted economic liberalization. e.g. The U.S. under Reagan, Chile under Pinochet

States, communities, and individuals became increasingly interdependent, a process facilitated by the growth of institutions of global governance. Formation of the United Nations, NAFTA, WHO, WTO…

Popular and consumer culture became global.

Key Concept 6.3. New Conceptualizations of Global Economy,

Society, and Culture

Page 33: To the Present By Rahul Francis, Jialin Ke, Sabrina Sun, Noah Amick, Anika Husain, and Stella Ma Pd. 3 – AP World History – Mr. Trainor

Global trade slowed down during the Great Depression,

with nearly a 62% decrease. North American multinational corporations began to

have foreign interests in Latin America with the decline of cheap labor in the U.S. Examples include the U.S. control of Cuban sugar and the United

Fruit Company in Guatemala This oppressive foreign presence created a large gap

between the rich and the poor and angered many peasants in Latin America. This led to revolutions (many of them Communist/socialist)

in Latin America, such as Fidel Castro’s Cuban revolution. Despite this, many nations in the Americas continued to

export many important goods Europe, Asia, and Africa.
