World History Homework One Leonard G.
1.) What I hope to accomplish in this course this year is to review world history and to have a good time while doing so.
2.) The date of the Tower of Babel interests me. To imagine a time when one language was spoken is difficult to comprehend, but if language wasnât created by God, we would probably be speaking in primitive grunts!
3.) Hammurabiâs Code was pretty blunt with its âeye for an eyeâ philosophy. It is similar to the Bible in many ways, including punishment for false accusations. Hammurabiâs Code was not perfect; however, it might have been too severe at times. An example would be persecuting a person who falsely accuses someone by accident. We must learn to forgive each other for the mistakes we may make.
4) Mesopotamia, Egypt, Indus. China, Mexican Olmec, and Peru are the first major empires of world history. Egypt is definitely my favorite because of their amazing intelligence. Their communication wasnât that great, but to see such great works of architecture and leadership simply amazes me.
5.) The controversy of creation can actually be dated back to this time, even though some believe that creation actually happened millions of years ago. Creation has been one of the biggest controversies in history, puzzling even the most intelligent person.
6.) Egypt was divided into three periods, the Old Kingdom, the Middle Kingdom, and the New Kingdom. I love Egyptian architecture. To imagine the geniuses that were able to design such amazing structures that would last lifetimes!
