Answer:
Enlightenment ideas are introduced in Europe --- Common Sense connects Enlightenment ideas to the American movement for independence --- The Second Continental Congress ratifies the Declaration of Independence.
Explanation:
The Enlightenment was a cultural and intellectual movement, primarily European, that was born in the mid-eighteenth century and lasted until the early years of the nineteenth century. It was especially active in France, England and Germany, inspiring profound cultural and social changes, and one of the most dramatic was the French Revolution. It was named in this way for its declared purpose of dispelling the darkness of the ignorance of humanity through the lights of knowledge and reason. The eighteenth century is known, for this reason, as the Age of Enlightenment and the settlement of faith in progress.
The thinkers of the Enlightenment argued that human knowledge could combat ignorance, superstition and tyranny to build a better world. The Enlightenment had a great influence on scientific, economic, political and social aspects of the time.
The cultural movement of Enlightenment spread rapidly from Europe to the Thirteen Colonies, where it found sufficiently trained elites, a particularly favorable public opinion and a free and dynamic press. The intellectual debates had a clear influence on the political and social movement of the American Revolution, which led to the formation of the independent United States of America in 1776.
Answer:
The samurai and daimyo gave back the power to the emperor and worked to reform Japan.
Explanation:
Japan had remained strongly isolated from the rest of the world for hundreds of years. Japan especially never trusted Western powers since they had better technology and were very aggressive and powerful. In 1853, American Commodore Matthew C. Perry, arrived with four US military, steam-powered ships which were equipped with very modern and destructive guns. The Japanese had no means to oppose him in any manner and yielded to his demands, that Japan signed an official treaty of trade and commerce with the United States of America. This treaty, the Convention of Kanagawa angered many of the highest-ranking samurais for whom it was seen as a capitulation. They decided that Japan was way behind Western powers and that unless they imposed radical societal, economic reforms, they would be governed by the West. They managed to remove Tokugawa Yoshinobu, the last Shogun of Japan and restored the Emperor.
Traditionalist samurais were lincensed by this act and a civil war ensued, which reformist samurais were able to win with the help of Western technology and military advisors. Most power was transferred to the Emperor and Japan started massively importing technology and methods of social organization from many different countries in the west.
