The Global Tapestry unit test

A test on this unit alone, marked as a percentage and a letter grade — for the test your class is actually sitting, rather than for May. Answer everything, then submit once: seeing the answer to question 3 before attempting question 4 makes the final percentage meaningless.

Each paper is built from this unit’s 38 terms and is the same for everyone, so a teacher can assign “Unit 1, Paper 2” and every student sits the identical test. Multiple choice is marked objectively; the written sections you mark yourself against the model answer and rubric.

LONG ESSAY (option 2 of 3). In the period circa 1200 to 1600, technological innovations, migrations of people, and the expansion and contraction of religions intensified military conflicts and resulted in numerous wars of conquest. Develop an argument that evaluates the extent to which military conflicts affected state building in Afro-Eurasia during the period 1200 to 1600.
