I think the Age of Revolutions may come up for question 5, so I'm making sure to learn the causes and consequences of each revolution well.

Causes of the French Revolution

The Enlightenment; Writers such as Jean Jacques Rosseau and Voltaire wrote about how the people of a country should be the ones to rule it. They promoted ideas of democracy and freedom.

The American Revolution; French Involvement in the American Revolution caused bankruptcy in France. French generals like the Marquis de Lafayette returned home with ideas of revolution and freedom and would later help lead the French Revolution.

An unfairly divided society; France was broken up into three social groups or estates. The first and second estates consisted of clergy and nobles while the third estate consisted of everyone else. The third estate had to pay all the taxes. When France went under debt King Louis set up the estates general. This would later lead to his downfall

A weak monarchy; King Louis was a weak king in a time of crisis. He lived a lavish life while most of France lived in poverty. His wife queen Antoinette was unpopular as she was Austrian.

by any chance do you have notes of social change in Ireland - sport and recreation?

Causes of the Age of Explorations

Wealth: Monarchs and rulers in Europe wanted to become rich from exploiting new lands. Many were willing to sponsor voyages so that they could profit from the raw materials bought back.

Power: People wanted to be able to exploit new lands and turn them into colonies. They wanted to control more land by gaining colonies (pretty much the same as wealth so you can mix them together uwu)

A Questioning Spirit: People became more curious about the world around them, especially after the renaissance. They wanted to discover new lands and learn new cultures.

Religion: The spread of Christianity was a major cause of the age of explorations. Many countries wanted to spread Christianity to new lands and colonies.

Anyone have anymore notes on this one? I'm not sure whether this is all accurate ;-;

The Emergency

-Ireland decided to remain neutral during World War II. They remained neutral because they wanted to show how they were really independent from Britain, Ireland was too weak and unready to join and they were still bitter over the war of independence.
-Ireland army grew from 20,000 to 250,000. The IRA was seen as a threat to neutrality.
-Media was censored and unbiased. Even so, they still favoured the Allies e.g allowing British soldier to travel back to Britain through Northern Ireland but imprisoning Germans.
-Emergency Powers Act 1919: Gave Irish government control over Ireland during World War II
-Food and other supplies were rationed heavily. People used ration books. Glimmer men travelled from home to home making sure people weren't using too much electricity
-Many Irish travelled to Britain to work in British ammunition factories
