The rise of the Western World was given precisely at the moment of the Renaissance and the Enlightenment, when classic knowledge was rediscovered. The importance of the 3 rises is immensely important to the development of modern society.

Besides the rise of the rest, Zachariah imposes his opinion on what should be done and what is going on in the global economy. Many countries economies are doubling over short periods of time, while the world superpowers, like Germany, the USA, and Canada, are slowly growing. Modern times have been changed by the rise of the rest because

    Chapter 10 focuses on the environment and development. Many of the effects of development impact the environment greatly, and these negative externalities tend to fall on poor people who don’t have the resources to escape the conditions. The chapter opens with a quote from Nicholas Stern that reads, “The poorest developing countries will be hit earliest and hardest by climate change, even though they have contributed little to causing the problem.” I wanted to talk about this quote and what exactly it means because it’s an important fact that often goes overlooked.…

    In the 1980s, the mountain slopes around Nagsasa Cove were covered with tropical rainforest and inhabited by Aeta people, as they were for hundreds of years. The shoreline was mostly rocky, with short patches of beach here and there. Some distance beyond the shore (as indicated in old maps of the cove) was a rich coral reef, prolific with all kinds of fish and marine life. There was logging, but not on a large scale.…

    At that moment, Foster's feet started to move towards the stairs as he slowly climbed them. He traveled down the multiple black and golden clad halls before finally reaching a large door with the name Nadine Jocelin Gaucher plastered on it. He slowly opened the door, to see Jocelin sitting on her bed. A window in the back of the room with a dresser in the corner. The room itself was rather large as she moved her finger once again, forcing Foster into the room.…

    Admittedly the world we live in is the subject of our study to a certain degree, though I feel it is important to emphasize that modernity was not only an important principle of thought for those of the socially concerned mindset - which began to appear throughout its fruition - but also the artist, or the philosopher, the worker, the owner, the ruled and the ruled.…

    There are only a few religions that can claim the adherence of large numbers of people. Geographers distinguish two types of religion: universalizing and ethnic. Universalizing religions attempt to become global, and appeal to all people, regardless of where they may live in the world, not just to those of one culture or location. An ethnic religion appeals primarily to one group of people living in a single place. “About sixty two percent of the world’s population adheres to a universalizing religion, twenty four to an ethnic religion, and fourteen percent to no religion”. The three main universalizing religions are Christianity, Islam, and Buddhism. “Each of the three branches is divided into branches, denominations and sects. A branch is a large and fundamental division within a religion. A denomination is a division of a branch that unites a number of local congregations in a single legal and administrative body. A sect is a relatively small group that has broken away from an established denomination”. Christianity has two billion followers and has the most widespread distribution. It is the predominant religion in North America, South America, Europe, and Australia (countries with a Christian majority exist in Africa and Asia as well). “Christianity has three major branches: Roman Catholic, Protestant, and Eastern Orthodox. Roman Catholics comprise 53 percent of the world’s Christians, Protestants 21 percent, and Eastern Orthodox 10 percent”. Roman Catholicism is the dominant Christian branch within Europe. The Eastern Orthodox branch of Christianity is a collection of fourteen self-governing churches in Eastern Europe and the Middle East. Roman Catholics make up ninety three percent of Christians in Latin America, compared with twenty nine percent in North America. “Within North America, Roman Catholics are clustered in the southwestern and northwestern United States and the Canadian province of Quebec”. Islam is the religion of 1.3 billion people, and is the…

    Socially, the world has changed drastically. In the beginning of the Classical Era, people were stratified into tribes depending on their bloodline. They were born into this, and couldn’t leave it. Even as the world evolved, civilizations were still stratified, but in a more structural manner. All depending on where that person was located, whether it be Europe or even China, social stratification was always apparent. Communication had also become more advanced, resulting in the advancement of the Era itself. With Communication becoming more imaginative and intellectual, ideas of improving the world around became more common, and helped ideas spread and ascend through the Eras.…
