Guns, Germs, and Steel: Episode 2 Directions: Before viewing the film, read each question below so you know what information and ideas you should be looking for as you watch Episode 2.

At the time that the Spanish conquistadores invaded the Inca Empire, they were armed with state of the art weaponry. Describe this weaponry. Some of the weapons that the Spanish had where the gun, which shot bullets but at a slow speed, steel swords, and repairs. 2. What is Jared Diamond’s explanation for why the Spanish had advanced to steel swords while Inca’s were still making tools and weapons from bronze? Because the Incas had to take lots more time to farm, so that means there were no people who had the time to learn metallurgy and create things other than bronze. 3. How did the battle tactics used by the Spanish conquistadors help the small army defeat...

1. According to Jared Diamond, what are the three major elements that separate the world’s  “haves” from the “have nots”? The major elements are Guns, Germs, and steel. 2. Jared Diamond refers to the people of New Guinea as “among the world’s most culturally diverse and adaptable people in the world”, yet they have much less than modern Americans. Diamond has developed a theory about what has caused these huge discrepancies among different countries, and he says it boils down to geographic luck. Give several examples from the film to support Diamond’s theory. An example of geographic luck would be the Europeans being able to farm crops like wheat , while the people of papa new guinea are forced to gather sago witch is much less nutritious. Also with the animals they had, in new guinea they only had pigs witch could not be used for pelts, milk, nor could pull plows. On the other hand in Eurasiathey had a plethora of helpful animals.  3. For thousands of years, peopl...

According to the article, what are the two fundamental aspects of Japan's aging crisis? 2.) By 2030, what percentage of the Japanese population will be elderly dependents (aged 65+)?  3.) What is the direct economic impact of Japan's aging population? 4.) How is the Japanese government attempting to address labor shortages? 1.

According to Malthus, what is the most positive check on human population growth that has existed in history? Describe Malthus’ idea of arithmetic growth of food supply v geometric growth of the human population.  Discuss Malthus’ idea of positive and preventive checks on the human population. Provide examples of both.   RESEARCH: Was Malthus Right? Read the article and do some outside research if necessary and decide whether or not Malthus was right.   1.
