This paper is something between a formal essay and a response paper; and you will write on several different themes relating to the second half of the course. Support your answers as much as possible with references to the textbook and lectures.
Write (at least) three pages answering both of the questions below. Follow guidelines for previous papers. You don’t need to give an introduction and conclusion, but make sure that you write coherent paragraphs with topic sentences and that you proofread carefully for grammer, etc. The paper is due at the end of the day on December 19.
1) What brought Europeans and Africans to North America in the period until 1700? Explain and differentiate as necessary between different areas.
2) What was the Brazilian Gold Rush and how did it change the Portuguese colony of Brazil?
I will attach the course textbook but you have to make an account and borrow it in order to view the pages, try your best to use it and apply it to the paper
