  1. Unit 5: Industrialism and a New Global Age (1800 – 1914) • Unit Focus: The Industrial Revolution opens the door for major political and social changes in the world, leading to an even more Global Society.

  2. Quick Review of Ch. 24 • What is imperialism and what motivates nations to practice it? • How could you argue that imperialism is a positive / negative policy? • If you were an Indian living in India during the time when England began taking over, how do you think you would have responded? Why?

  3. Ch. 25: New Global Patterns (1800 – 1914) • Chapter Summary • The Age of Imperialism brought a global exchange that profited industrial nations but disrupted traditional economies and political life in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. The new imperialism spread western culture around the world. At the same time, western culture changed as it absorbed influences from subject peoples around the world.

  4. Section 1: Japan Modernizes • Key Idea • During the late 1800s, Japan opened its doors to foreign influence and quickly became a modern industrial power.

  5. Why did Japan open up to western countries? • Military Threats • During the mid 1800’s the U.S. sent a powerful naval (ships) force to make Japan open up to trade. • Acceptance of Modernization • While some Japanese resisted, eventually most Japanese accepted that they needed to accept relations with Western powers and a more modern lifestyle.

  6. Section 2: Imperialism in Southeast Asia and the Pacific • Key Idea • Western industrialized powers divided up Southeast Asia in pursuit of raw materials, new markets, and converts to Christianity. The Philippines

  7. The PhilippinesAn Example of Imperialism in Asia • 1500s: Spain took over the Philippines. • Catholic missionaries spread Christianity. • As the church gained wealth and power, Filipinos accused the church of corruption. • Filipino Anger = Resistance to Spanish Rule • Late 1800s: The USA took over the Philippines. • USA is at war with Spain, so they destroyed Spanish in the Philippines and took control. • US helps to modernize the Philippines and then slowly gives them back control of their nation. (1946)

  8. Section 3: Self-Rule for Canada, Australia, and New Zealand • Key Idea • The British colonies of Canada, Australia, and New Zealand won independence faster and with greater ease than territories in other regions. New Zealand Australia Canada

  9. Why did territories like Canada, Australia and New Zealand gain independence from England faster than others? • Shared language and culture with England. • Racial Bias • Imperialist nations like Britain felt that whites were more capable of governing themselves.

  10. Section 4: Economic Imperialism in Latin America • Key Idea • The economy of Latin America became dependent on industrialized nations for investment, technology, and manufactured goods.

  11. Why did Latin American nations become more dependent on more industrialized nations? • Democracy failed to take root in most newly independent nations in South America. • Therefore the wealth and power remained in the hands of only a few and Latin American nations did not develop like others. • The Result = Latin American economies are more dependent on developed countries (like the US and Britain) and developed countries see an opportunity to increase wealth in Latin America.

  12. Quick Review of Ch. 25 • Explain the development of Japan during the late 1800s. • Why were Western powers interested in Asia during this time? • Why do you think Canada, Australia and New Zealand achieved independence faster than many other territories? • Describe the economic relationship between Latin America and other industrialized nations.
