2. Feudalism: Definition or description?
3. What class of people take up the largest population in feudalism?

4. The Middle Ages: What is vernacular literature?

5. The Renaissance: What are the four causes of the Reformation?
6. What were big painters of this time? Leonardo da Vinci, and which others?

7. Age of Exploration: Conquistadors-why did they explore?

8. French Revolution: Who was exempt from the Talle?
9. What is the Bastille?

10. Road to WWII: Why did people go to extremist politics?
11. What was the Triumph of the Will?

12. WWII: Who would come to Poland's aid?
13. What is Dunkirk?
