Theory- thoughts backed up with some facts

3 theories: Illustrated with :
 * 1) Progressive theory-moving forward - the story of civilization has been one of continuous progress. Things always get better from one generation to the next.. Examples of types of weapons and how they got better. Flip side is that bigger better weapons are not always better.


 * 1) Cyclical theory- going around in circles. Civilization has a beginning, grows, ages, matures, then dies. Like us-born, grow, age, decline, die. Every civilization on earth goes through this. greeks, Romans egyptians, Mayans- died out, are examples. Some civilizations go through a rebirth like China,

illustrated with:


 * 1) Spiral Theory- things will go down but they will get better. Example would be the civil war. We came out of it with westward movement or industrial revolution. Great Depression, but we came out of it.

illustrated with:

On test: Name theory from memory, draw it out, give an example

5 part framework: 5 things you look at which each country has


 * 1) physical make up (body)- consists of geography (features)
 * 2) economy- jobs, industries, money- what people do for a living or how they survive.
 * 3) Political-government- every country has some form of government. Some are strong and some are weak. It is there to keep people organized and live in harmony. There are many types of government. US has a democracy.
 * 4) Social-people/classes interaction with other people
 * 5) cultural- customs, religion, entertainment
