How to explain the banking system to young students

History
1 answer:

You’ve done a great job saving. Now, your parents want you to put those dollars and cents into a  safe of money savings account at a bank.

How do banks work? And how do people use banks?

Lots of people give their money to banks.

When you give your money to a bank, it’s called a deposit. Banks keep your money safe. AND, more importantly, banks will pay you for every dollar you keep in a savings account! The money the bank pays you is called interest. The bank will pay you interest every month you keep the money in your savings account!

You’re probably thinking, “Wait a second… banks pay ME money, and I don’t have to do anything? Why in the world would a bank pay me money to do nothing?”

Banks lend your money to other people.

If people don’t have enough money saved up to buy something, they often borrow money from the bank to buy big things, like houses and cars. The banks lend them the money to buy these things , but the banks expect people to pay the money back AND pay the bank a little extra money, besides.

Let’s say you borrowed $10 from a bank. You get the $10 right away. But when you pay back the $10, the bank will charge you $1 or $2 extra for giving you the money when you needed it. So you pay the bank $11 or $12. That’s how banks earn money.

Without money from people like you, banks wouldn’t have any money to lend. That’s why banks will pay you interest.

If you leave your money in savings…

Every month, the bank pays you for keeping money in your savings account. And over time, that extra money really adds up!

Imagine if your parents gave you $100 for your birthday every year for ten years. If you put it in your piggy bank, you’d have $1,000. But if you put it in a savings account, you might have $1,100 or even more. That’s an extra $100, and you didn’t have to lift a finger! That’s why it pays to open up a savings account!

How was the Scientific Revolution a threat to the Church?
natta225 [31]
At that time, the Church pretended to have a full power over the truth: the truth was whatever the Church said and everything that the Church said was true.

The Scientific Revolution challenged this and introduced the idea that truth has to be supported by facts, which the Church was not happy to accept as it could not provide evidence for some of its claims.

how did government function during the dark ages
Natali [406]

Government in the Middle Ages - Feudalism

The prevailing system of government in the Middle Ages was feudalism.  Though the actual term “feudalism” was not used during the Middle Ages, what we now recognize as a feudalist system of government was in control in Medieval Europe.  Feudalism was a way for the Kings and upper nobility to keep control over the serfs and peasants.

Definition

There is no universally accepted modern day definition of feudalism.  The word “feudal” was coined in the 17th century, some 200 years after the end of feudalism in Europe.  The term “feudalism” was coined later still, in the 19th century.

After the publication of Elizabeth A. R. Brown’s The Tyranny of a Construct, many scholars have found the term “feudalism” troubling and have wanted to drop it, not just as the title of government in the middle ages, but as a term altogether.

Feudalism is mainly used in discourse today as a comparison or analogical term applied to governmental structures in history.  This is known as “semi-feudal.”  The term has also been brought up in discussions of non-Western societies today whose governments resemble the feudal system in medieval Europe, but this use of the term is often deemed inappropriate.
