History

The Continental System was a decree by the Emperor of France, Napoleon Bonaparte which was made to limit British trade and bankrupt the country.

At his mightiest, Napoleon controlled almost every powerful country in Europe, except for Britain and Russia. He found it difficult to directly attack Britain and instead wanted to bankrupt it.

However, this eventually backfired and left France in a very bad economic conditions and Britain took advantage of this.  

Many smaller countries that France had annexed, took up arms against Napoleon and began to fight. With a weakened economic position, Napoleon eventually lost the Empire.

Explanation:

Let's know better each explorer. It's important to know their names and accomplishments.

<u>Francis Drake (1540 - 1596)</u>

<u></u>

Francis Drake was an English explorer. Queen Elizabeth sent Drake to South America as part of England try to stand out itself from Portugal and Spanish on their empires. At the time Drake arrived in South America, that place was under control of the Iberian empires (Portugal and Spain). He returned to England via the Pacific, and it was honored by Queen Elizabeth for his victories.  The nickname English Sea Dog was given to him, alongside his mate Richard Hawking, as part of their victory against the Spanish Armada in 1588. The battle was influenced by the English support to the independence of Dutch from Spain, and an attempt of Spain to destroy the English emergent commercial trades in the Atlantic.

<u>Vasco de Balboa (1475 - 1519)</u>

Vasco de Balboa was a Spanish explorer. He made many alliances with the natives during his explorations in the new world. These alliances led him, in 1513, to discover the Pacific Ocean (or Mar del Sul, as he named). The arrival at the Pacific Ocean was made crossing the Isthmus of Panama.

<u>Ferdinand de Magellan (1480 - 1521)</u>

Ferdinand de Magellan was a Portuguese sailor. His proposal to reach India through a new route by the Pacific was refused by Portugal. At that time, the Portuguese empire was strong enough to refuse this proposition with its recent discoveries (especially Brazil in 1500). Anyway, Magellan was commissioned by King Charles I from Spain to do his attempt to reach India through Asia using the Pacific as a route. If Magellan would accomplish this attempt, Spain would obtain a valuable route and could confront Portugal in trade. His expedition was able to accomplish this attempt, but Magellan died in 1521.

<u>Jacques Cartier (1491 - 1557)</u>

Jacques Cartier was a French explorer. Cartier was commissioned by King Francis I of France to explorer the northern parts of North America. His idea was to found a passage to Asia. France, just like England, was trying to surpass Portugal and Spain looking for new lands and trade routes. In 1534, during his explorations, Cartier found the St. Lawerence River, and he was the first to explorer it.

<u>Samuel de Champlain (1567 - 1635)</u>

Samuel de Champlain led the first French settlement in 1608. However, we have to explain this statement. Jacques Cartier tried to create a settlement in 1541, during his explorations of the St. Lawrence River, but the settlement was abandoned due to the bad weather, diseases and other bad aspects.

<u>Jacques Marquette (1637 - 1675)</u>

Jacques Marquette was a Jesuit explorer. He is best known for his traveling trough the Mississipi river.

Describe what happen in western society during the Baroque Era. As well As focusing on music, you may discuss developments in ar
Wittaler [7]
Baroque was all about being highly ornate, flamboyant, over the top, and other similar notions. In music, one of the greatest achievements was the development of tonality which was about composing music in a certain key, which is a feature that is still used nowadays in most songs. New instrumental ways of performing were developed as well as well as huge performances with numerous people participating.

In art, baroque painters wanted to separate themselves from the renaissance artists and focused on using warm colors with great depth and dramatic scenes with dark and light often clashing. They cared about dramatic moments and not just about random daily activities or about events that preceded those great moments.

When it comes to science, Baroque just further expanded on the ideas that were related to renaissance. Scientists from the Age of Baroque were responsible for the scientific revolution. These people were famous scientists who often clashed with the church like Galileo, Copernicus, Descartes, and numerous others.

When it comes to church, Baroque was really important. Unlike the previous renaissance period when the church lost some of its power, in baroque the church flourished because they encouraged baroque as an opposition to the austerity of the protestant church and its beliefs. The Catholic church supported baroque artists because they created in grandeur that was befitting of the catholic church.

The philosophy of the Baroque era was not precisely related to Baroque itself since it was primarily an art movement, so they are mostly referred to as philosophers of the 17th century instead of baroque philosophy. In regards to what they dealt with, they were mostly a bridge between enlightenment, renaissance, and later romantic philosophy tendencies.

Politically, Baroque was a way of showing your class and your social status. Since it was all about grandeur and presentation, the nobles and Kings of various countries enjoyed baroque as it enabled them to fully become absolutists and become larger than life. Although there were wars and conquering and similar, most recognized people from the area are people like Louis XIV of France, also known as the Sun King who was basically treated in France like a god.
