Homework from Dec 5

European History Homework 10
Choose One of the following tasks and have it ready for next class
1. Be an artist: Draw a picture the 30 years war, coronation of the Holy Roman Emperor, or the Treaty of Westphalia. Keep in mind how they dressed and what the environment would have looked like. The picture will be graded on content not artistic skill. The more elements in the picture the better.
2. Be an investigator: Research the Hapsburg family tree. How many were Holy Roman Emperors? Are there any Hapsburgs today. Photocopy or print off a picture French monarch's home. Create margins and detail with written descriptions of what the elements in the picture are.
3. Be a writer: Write a one page paper on Albrecht Wallenstein. What was he like? Who was he before he became a mercenary? Don't focus as much on spelling, though you should try to answer as many who, what, when where, and whys as possible.
4. Be a builder: Build a model of the castle in Prague while the Defenestration of 1618 occurred. Make the castle out of sticks, toothpicks, Popsicle sticks, glue, rope, wood, and or floral foam. Do a little research to see what battle would have looked like. Also keep in mind not to make it so big that it would be difficult to bring into class.
