As Europeans began to experience the wealth of the Age of Exploration and Absolutism, their role in non-European areas increased greatly. This changing role of Europeans would begin to have ripple effects in Asia. In Asia, the advancements in gunpowder technology allowed the Ottoman, Safavid, and Mughal Empires to emerge and become powerful. Each of these Muslim “Gunpowder” Empires experienced a period of prosperity and cultural flourishing. Meanwhile, China saw its population explode with the introduction of American crops and long standing patterns of trade and culture continued under the rule of Kangxi during the Qing Dynasty. In nearby Japan, local landowners called daimyos created a feudal system of loyal samurai warriors and peasant farmers. Eventually, powerful Shoguns ended feudalism, unified Japan, and began a long period of isolation. Unit Pacing: Homework 2/1 – 2/4 The Gunpowder Empires 2/1 – 2/4 Reading Assignment 1 1.
