My assignment is to write a 18 page paper discussing the significance of European maritime exploration and expansion, the Enlightenment, the Industrial Revolution and Nationalism in shaping the modern world. Which of these had the greatest, most far-reaching global impact? Why?
So much happens with each, in reading my textbook, I cannot seem to narrow onto the exact significance and most global impact. I mean, I know why they are important and stuff like that but especially with the Enlightenment, as far as global impact, I am at a loss.
