HISTORY DEFINITION LIST ESSAY / Each essay topic in this section has terms
or phrases listed underneath it. In writing this essay, you will only be required to
explain the historical significance of the terms listed under your chosen topic in
your essay answer. You MAY NOT mix terms between topics. Your essay will depend.
not just on your ability to correctly define each term or phrase, but also on your
explanation of how they relate to each other. Your essay should be just that…an
ESSAY…not a series of disconnected definitions. Use either the one- or three-paragraph.
