Answer:

Mercantilism Mercantilism was a sixteenth-century economic philosophy that maintained that a countrys wealth was measured by its holdings of gold and silver (Mahoney, Trigg, Griffin, & Pustay, 1998). This recquired the countries to maximise the difference between its exports and imports by promoting exports and discouraging imports. The logic was transparent to sixteenth-century policy makers-if foreigners buy more goods from you than you buy from them, then the foreigners have to pay you the difference in gold and silver, enabling you to amass more treasure.

Republican motherhood

Republican motherhood became the new role for women following the American Revolution. This gave women a specific place in society which gave them the duty to have American children and raise them morally and with good civic values.

Though this may seem like a slight to women when some wanted rights in particular the right to vote, it was a privilege for many women. This duty gave women their role in society that men could not intrude on or take away. The two genders were given very specific and separate roles for the new society. Men were responsible for making money and establishing an economy in addition to participating in government. Women were expected to take care of social and cultural concerns in particular raising children and teaching them morality, reading, writing, and civics. This role was critical to maintaining and continuing the revolutionary ideas and spirit. It would be women who taught and carried on the identity associated with Americanism.

Olegator [25]

The journey taken to the Holy land to take land back from the Muslims was the Crusade. When the Turks took control they started to stop letting Christian pilgrims in.

Pope Urban's speech was made here, urging rescue of the holy land. This was the Council of Clermont. This was the beginning of the first crusade and the speech was held in 1095.

The Seljuk Turks were the group that stopped Christians from visiting the Holy Land in 1071. They prosecuted many Christians, mostly in Syria and Palestine.

The Third Crusade was led by 3 kings. This was till 1189-1192. This did not learn to Richard the Lionheart getting Jerusalem, but the pilgrims could now visit the Holy Land.

The First Crusade was led by unskilled peasants and knights in 1096-1099. This was the Crusade that was the most successful and got the Turks out of Jerusalem.

The Fourth Crusade was led by French knights and went against the Pope. This took place during 1202-1204 and the Crusaders actually ended up taking Constantinople instead of the Holy Land.
