Economy/trade: One key issue was the fight for dominion over seagoing trade routes. SIR FRANCIS DRAKE helped to establish England as a maritime power. After the defeat of the “Invincible” SPANISH ARMADA (1588), Britannia ruled the waves.

Colonization/expansion: England began colonizing the New World (America) with the JAMESTOWN settlement, and ended up with 13 colonies along the eastern seaboard of what is now the United States. New England’s development was, however, limited by the geographical barrier of the Appalachians and France’s outposts along the Mississippi.

Religion: HENRY VIII founded the Anglican church in the 1500s, as Rome would not grant him a divorce. There was bitter rivalry between CATHOLICS and PROTESTANTS. EDWARD VI introduced the BOOK OF COMMON PRAYER.

MARY TUDOR brought England back into the fold of the Catholic church. ELIZABETH I was Protestant, and MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS (MARY STUART) was a threat to her, because Catholics supported her claim to the English throne. JAMES I of England introduced the KING JAMES BIBLE.

Internal/external problems: The struggle between Catholics and Protestants was an internal problem. The struggle between England, France, and Spain was an external problem.

You’ll find all the information you want if you type ‘England 1500-1600 into your search engine. Or type in English economy/trade 1550 etc.

You could even try reading your text book.

I would be happy to help you, but you aren’t asking for help. You’re asking someone to do your research for you, and that’s not the same as help.

Just quit on Heskey and begin with Defoe. Get Joe Cole in at the left. Don’t make thoroughly useless subsitutions like Lennon for Wright-Phillips, what used to be that each one approximately? And if you are going to sub Crouch in, do it earlier than eighty mins so he honestly has a risk. What they particularly have to do is begin gambling with ardour and begin taking a few pleasure within the badge on their blouse. It’s like they do not even care approximately England or the lovers, after which get annoyed once they get booed. Put a few bloody balls into it and give up gambling so passively. We do have the skillability to get by way of, the query is whether or not we’ve got the teamwork.

It’s amazing. When I was your age, on a Sunday night, scrambling to find answers for homework I neglected, I had a few books to get by, and somehow I got by. You now have the whole world– the internet, encyclopedias, wikipedia, essays, etc., in which to find answers and yet you STILL ask other people to do your work for you.

And you wonder why us “old” people ask what the world’s coming to.
