Based on the knowledge you have gained throughout this course in which we have identified major themes across diverse societies in their historical and cultural contexts around the globe, what do you consider to be an important theme in global history and why?

Here is how to start working on your essay:

1) Think about a theme with global impact that we have covered in this class.

2) Introduce and explain your theme.

3) Think about at least two examples (in two different body paragraphs) from different parts of the world (Europe, Asia, the Americas, Muslim World, etc.) to support your argument. Your examples should come from the topics and time periods that we have covered in this class since the beginning of the semester.
