3. • Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press in 1440. Not
long after he started to publish books and Bibles so that
people could read what others had to say. Without this it would
be really hard to find books to read and to practice reading
new things. Now there are lots of books being printed by the
printing press. People are able to read book and some people
like to read and instead of writing up a 60,000 word book, they
can print it. This means that we have to spend less time writing
books and we can spend more time with our family and
friends. We can now read a lot of books and we can learn
things from them too. There is also the newspaper which can
give us information and can keep us up to date in things
around the world.

6. On October 12th 1492 Christopher Columbus landed in the
Caribbean’s. After a long journey across the Atlantic Ocean
he landed in what he thought was India. I think that the
change it made helped people expand territories. It also
made people keener on “discovering” the new lands which
let us know more about the world. It has made a huge
difference to us because now the America’s are a big part
of your lives. We get food, clothing and other imports from
them. They are home to many of the world’s population,
e.g. refugee’s, lots of college students, and businesses,
and it develops the world’s economic, social, and
educational needs. (But other countries do this too). So if
Columbus never tried to go to India we wouldn’t know
about the America’s and we wouldn’t have something’s we
have today.

8. In the years 1503–1519 Leonardo de Vinci painted the
Mona Lisa. It was a picture a woman named Lisa; she also
had a small smile which makes it mysterious. It is the most
famous painting in the world and is also the most
expensive. Leonardo had used shading so that the picture
looked 3-D. This made the picture more realistic. Now we
use it to make the paintings look like people and it makes
the world we live in more beautiful and the museums have
the paintings from the renaissance. This means that we
now know what the art was like back then so we know how
we developed and how we can continue to develop art in
different ways. SO without the renaissance we wouldn’t
have this type of art.

11. In 1512 Niccolo Machiavelli wrote a book on how he
thought you needed to be a good leader and most of them
were about being cunning and sneaky. It leads people to lie
to the people and not allow them to do things they should
like vote. People have interpreted his book and now people
are following things that he wrote about so now there can
be really mean leaders so people can get into trouble
because the leaders. We care because people get mad
and blame the leader if they are like Machiavelli’s book
because they can be really mean. So if he hadn’t written
the book the world today would be different.

14. In 1520 Martin Luther nailed 95 theses to the door of a
church in Germany to complain about the problems of the
Church. Then he was put into the Inquisition and called a
heretic for doing this even though lots of people agree with
him. Today people are still using the religion he made so
that means that people cared and agreed. People listened
to him and today that is one of the reasons that there are
many different types of Christianity. Now people can make
their own ideas about the bible. So if he hadn’t done that no
monk would have. He stood up for it but he wasn’t that
happy.

17. In 1533 Henry the 8th became the head of the English
Church. He made a new version of Christianity that was
much like Catholicism except they could divorce. He then
divorced his first wife to marry another. He made himself
the head of the Church of England. It changed the way
people thought because now they could divorce and
remarry if they are christens. People in the modern day are
divorcing more than ever. People are remarrying as well.
People are still using the version of Christianity that King
Henry had created because they are Christens just they
are also allowed to divorce. So without King Henry it would
probably be really had to divorce anyone.

20. In 1559 Queen Elizabeth the first ruled England without a
king for 45 years and proved to the world that woman are
just as strong and smart as men are if they receive the
same education. I think that was a big accomplishment for
someone in her time to do because of all the illnesses and
deaths. Now people know that women are smart and brave
and can be as successful as any man. Women can get the
same jobs and can do just as well because they are treated
the same as men. This means that now women aren’t
property like people thought they were before. So without
powerful women, like Elizabeth the first, women could still
be what they were like in the renaissance.

23. In 1603 Samuel de Champlain traveled to the top of North
American, to what is now known as Canada. Unfortunately
he killed the people that lived there. Soon after his 2nd visit
he made a castle in what is now Quebec City. It would have
been really different if he hadn’t found Canada. Now
Canada is a really big place and lots of famous cities are
there like Vancouver and Quebec itself. There are lots of
people live in Canada. Quebec is a really popular city and it
has a lot of history. Without him French wouldn’t have
spread as much as it has and it wouldn’t be as important to
know. So without Samuel de Champlain Canada wouldn’t
be the way it is today and French wouldn’t be either.

26. In 1666 Sir Isaac Newton was sitting underneath and apple
tree when an apple hit him on the head. Soon after he
came up with the idea of gravity. I think that the change
lead to ideas about the Earth, moon, and stars. It is
important because without his theory we would be lost
when it comes to space and how the planets revolve. We
have learnt about the tide which can save lives when
people are swimming out at night. It has helped us with
space travel because now we can predict where the moon
will be. Because of his discovery we have learnt about the
forces and we know that if we drop anything on the Earth it
will fall to the ground. If Isaac Newton hadn’t figured this
out we could still be wondering about gravity and the
planets.

29. The Inquisition took place all over the renaissance. They
made people fear the Church to get more Christians. They
made people rethink the Church because if lots of people
aren’t Catholic than something must be wrong with it. Now
people can be all different religions and we can see that in
truth the Church was corrupt and that the Church learnt
from their mistakes and now people can be whatever they
want to be which makes the people happy because they
don’t have to worry about their religion because they don’t
care.

32. All throughout the renaissance people were discovering
new things about medicine. People started to learn more
about the body, the way in worked, and what was inside, so
new cures were found and new ideas were formed about
what happens to the body. This way we know how to help
new lives and we know how to end lives painlessly. We
used that knowledge to increase our own so that people
are safer and we can help them more. Without the studies
that the people did than we would have never found a cure
to the things that we are facing right now. But since they did
we save lots of lives and we can stay health too.

35. The Aztec's lived all over the renaissance. They had a big
idea of gods and their architecture was things that looked
like the ancient romans made it. Now there is a lot of
architecture that we can base ideas on and we have
developed the south of Mexico faster because they had
developed it more than most of the people already there
already. So now the architecture can inspire us to do other
things like that.
