Peter the Great & Donald Trump

On Tuesday 3rd, January we began our look at Europe in the 1500s- 1700s. We did so by considering the leaders of the time with leaders today. If you were absent, you will need to do the following to make up what you missed:

1) Take a large piece of blank, unlined paper (you can get one from me if needed) and fold it into threes. In the first column title it Donald J. Trump. In the middle column, title it Both. In the final column, title it Peter the Great.

For the columns on Trump and Peter the Great answer the following three questions with at least seven facts each:

- What kind of man is he? What do we know about him persoanlly?
- What does he believe and want to happen? What is his vision for the future?
- How did this man come into power? What position did he have?

IMPORTANT: We discussed Trump as a class and then watched a video on Peter the Great. However, the video we watched on Peter the Great is blocked on copyright grounds and will not allow me to upload. So in order to make up the video, you will need to conduct some internet research on Peter the Great.

In the middle column list five substantial things that are similar between the two men AND five substantial things that are different. 

Thanks.
