I know I say this a lot, but seriously, this stuff is always on the exam! Two pieces of advice: don't exempt this one, and don't get overconfident after the test from last week. I hope I don't have to be more explicit.

You could also add that the British government favored business men with tariffs on imported Asian goods such as Indian cotton textiles, it had roads and canals that helped create a unified internal market, laws that forbade workers' unions and made it easier to form companies, and that there were patent laws that helped protects the interests of inventors

MQ#6: What were the differences between industrialization in the United States and that in Russia?

Hey, so all these points are great! But I wanted to talk about your last point about the peasants living under feudalism? Russia's serfdom and America's slavery were abolished around the same time in the mid 1860's, but their industrialization began at very different times. So Russia had already abolished serfdom when industrialization hit Russia because industrialization came later, while America still had slavery once they began their Industrial Revolution in the late 18th century. I think that this point could be tied into the one where the United States has better living conditions for workers, and could be a counter attack to show how Russia's conditions were worse, but I'm not sure if the point could stand on its own. What do you think?

Here's my attempt at MQ 3: How did Britain's middle classes change during the 19th century?

I would break it up into the 3 categories of the middle class, because then you can find more changes within each specific category. You have most of them for the lower middle class, but I would add these to your answer too!

For upper class I would add that British aristocracy declined..

MQ ?: What factors contributed to the making of a revolutionary situation in Russia by the beginning of the 20th century?

You've got all the point leading up to the 1905 revolution! But, even though the first revolution that occurred in Russia was in 1905, I think the Revolution of 1917 is even bigger so I would add some of the factors that contributed to the 1917 revolution as well, after the failed attempts of uniting Russia's social classes by the tsar after the revolution of 1905.

I'm realizing that this question is basically asking the same thing as MQ4 but including all classes... I guess that's one less question to think about

I'm not sure if this is too superficial but you could also say that they gained people? As in the population increased?

BinghamWelcome class of 2020. Some years students collaborate in this space effectively, some years not so much. One thing I know, collaboration significantly enhances learning. If you want access to my thoughts, this is the collaboration space to use. Most people propose an answer to margin questions, big picture question, or anything else related to managing Strayer. Other people can then comment leading to a stronger answer. I'll keep an eye on these pages, and pop in when I think you need me. Archives
