11
Judaism• Judaism and Christianity shaped European
religious and moral beliefs. • Judaism arose among the Israelites around 1700
BCE and was the first major religion to teach monotheism. Unlike other early religions, Judaism taught that all people,
even powerful rulers, had to obey God’s laws.
Christianity• Christianity arose about 2000 years ago when
people saw Jesus as the Messiah, the Savior chosen by God. Others saw him as a political threat and had him crucified.
According to Christian doctrine,
all people have a chance for salvation.
The Athenians• Ancient Greek and Roman traditions shaped
European political systems, and later influenced the founders of the U.S.
• In the 400’s BCE, the Greek city-state of Athens was a direct democracy, a form of government in which an assembly of ordinary citizens made decisions.
– Any adult male citizen could participate
The Romans• In 509 BCE, the Romans set up a republic, a form
of government in which people choose representatives to govern them. An elected senate and assembly would make laws.– Everyone was equal under the law, and if you were
accused of a crime, you were innocent until proven guilty.
The Middle Ages & Crusades• Rome fell to invaders in 476 CE and fragmented
Europe into small kingdoms. For 1,000 years, Europe was living in the Middle Ages.
• By the 800’s, kings and nobles relied on feudalism.
• Daily life revolved around the Catholic Church, and in 1095, Pope Urban II declared a Crusade to win the Holy Land from the Muslims.
The Renaissance• In the 1300’s, the Renaissance revived interest in
ancient Greece and Rome. Art, science, and inventions flourished.
• Powerful countries arose which resulted in Spain, Portugal, France
and England shifting their
trade routes to the Atlantic Ocean.
Martin Luther• In 1517, the German monk Martin Luther
demanded that the Catholic Church reform itself. Those who joined him in protesting certain practices of the Church were called Protestants.
• This caused the creation of new churches and religious sects within Christianity that also pushed Europe into religious wars.
Henry the Navigator• Prince Henry the Navigator
hoped to expand Portuguese power and spread Christianity to new lands. In the 1400’s, he set up a navigation center at Sagres, where sailors learned to use maps, the magnetic compass, and the astrolabe. With these skills, Portuguese sailors opened the way for exploration!!!
