However, to achieve the highest scores, you must have a coherent and well-written essay, so it is still in your best interest to proofread, edit, and polish your writing. 20 points will be awarded for a "good faith" attempt on the essay (one-paragraph "snippets" do not count), with the other 30 points awarded according to the rubric standards below.

You may demonstrate understanding by correctly placing the document in valid historical context or stating its significance in your own words or contextual quotation.
Cite documents using the Primary Source number in the book–i.e. "Primary Source 4.2" (parenthetical citations or footnotes are acceptable).
Note that the "Interpreting Visual Evidence" entries do NOT count for this point.

Specify how the rise of empires impacted at least two world regions.
You may consider Western Asia, the Mediterranean, South Asia, East Asia, and the Americas as distinct regions for purposes of this assignment.
