The short term effects of the Renaissance are hard to define because so many changes that occured during the Renaissance still effect us today. Many of the inventions that occured at the time of the Renaissance provided us with the tools to continue to change the world for the better.

-The first mechanical clock, invented in the early 1300s, started measuring days in hours. When Galileo invented the pendulem in 1581, measuring time because more accurate.
-In the mid 1300s, eyeglasses were only worn by well educated people, but after reading became more popular a larger variety of glasses were made.
-The first flush toilet was invented in 1596 and was reinvented, improved, and became more common 200 years later.
-The first telescope was invented in 1608 and later improved by Issac Newton in 1668 when he added mirrors instead of lenses. Galileo was the first person to use a telescop to study the solar system and made discoveries such as how the plantes orbit around the Sun and not Earth.
-The printing press, invented in 1436, was one of the most important inventions of the Renaissance because it brought on both the Scientific Revolution and the Reformation. Before the printing press was invented books had to be copied down by hand, consuming lots of time and the cost reduced the number people that could afford them.

Art changed during the Renaissance as paintings were made with a less religious theme and became known as secular art. Renaissance art became more lifelike than art in the Middle Ages because artists studied perspective and they gave their paintings more depth.

After the Civil War, the Seminole government was divided because of a split between __________ factions.
8090 [49]
<span>The term "Seminole" is a derivative of "cimarron" which means "wild men" in Spanish. The original Seminoles were given this name because they were Indians who had escaped from slavery in the British-controlled northern colonies. When they came to Florida, they were not called Seminoles as they were actually Creeks, Indians of Muskogee derivation. The Muskogean tribes comprised the Mississipian culture which were temple-mound builders. Among the Muskogean tribes were the Creeks, Hitichis and Yamasees of Georgia, the Apalachees of Florida, the Alabamas and Mobiles of Alabama, and the Choctaws, Chickasaws and Houmas of Mississippi. <span> The Origins of the Seminoles
The original Seminoles came to Florida because it was controlled by the Spanish, who had no interest in returning slaves to the British. They were mostly Lower Creeks who spoke the Mikasuki language, but other Indians, including Yuchis, Yamasees and Choctaws who had confronted Ponce de Leon and DeSoto, also joined the tribe in their trek to northern Florida from Georgia during the early 1700s. </span> By this time, many of the tribes in Florida, including the Tequestas, Calusas, Apalachees, Timucans and others, had been decimated by the Spanish presence, either in battles or by diseases such as smallpox. Out of an estimated 100,000 native Americans that occupied Florida during the 1500s, less than 50 survived. In 1767, Upper Creeks from Alabama, who spoke the Muskogee language, settled in the Tampa area. Shortly after this, in 1771, the first recorded usage of the name "Seminole" to denote an actual tribe was recorded. In 1778, the Seminoles were joined by more Lower Creeks and a few Apalachees. <span> The Five Civilized Tribes
Together with the Choctaws, Chickasaws, Creeks and Cherokees, the Seminoles were called "The Five Civilized Tribes." The name was coined because these tribes in particular adopted many ways of the white civilization. They lived in cabins or houses, wore clothes similar to the white man and often became Christians. </span></span>
