Course unit(s): 1
Meets GAR: Meets general academic requirement HU (and W when offered as 254).
This course emphasizes the consolidation of national monarchies in England and Scotland, as contrasted with the politically subordinate position of Ireland, and the often conflicted interactions of their peoples. The effects of the Reformation, seventeenth century constitutional conflicts stemming from the Anglo-Scottish dynastic union of 1603, the growth of an English/British Empire, and the subordination of Scotland (1707) and Ireland (1800) to England are all principal themes, as is the impact of the American and French Revolutions.
