Unit 8: Gunpowder Empires, Qing Dynasty and Feudal Japan
The Big Picture:
During the period from 1750-1914, the world saw a lot of major changes around the globe. 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.
