OpenStudy (sambot):

COFFEE Who did Europeans get coffee from and how did it spread to Europe? Coffee was first made in Yemen. It was soon adopted throughout the Arab world. It later spread to Europe and was considered a more respectable alternative to alcohol. Why was it so important to Europe's development that many people's beverage of choice switched from alcohol to coffee? Coffee makes the drinker more alert and, therefore, more productive. It sharpens the mind and focuses the drinker. Alcohol has the opposite effects. Describe coffee's effect on the global balance of power (in terms of commerce). Coffee had lots of demand, but little supply. The country that could grow and export the most coffee had a substantial economic advantage over other countries in terms of commerce. How did coffee play a pivotal role in the scientific revolution? (give lots of detail) Coffee houses became a play for informal intellectual conversation. At coffee houses scientists could discuss and recieve feedback on ideas. Lectures were also sometimes held at coffee houses. How did coffee play a pivotal role in the financial revolution? Originally stocks were traded in the royal exchange, but the government passed laws placing limits on the trades. In protest, brokers moved to nearby coffee houses, which led to the creation of the London Stock Exchange. How did coffee play a pivotal role in the French Revolution? (give lots of detail and go into the Enlightenment) Coffee houses in Paris became meeting centers for intellectuals. The French government censored the media and imposed harsh restrictions on the people. Coffee houses were one of the few places where intellectuals could freely discuss trends and topics. As the financial crisis worsened, revolutionary speakers started to speak at coffee houses to others. After a failed convention, a lawyer successfully gathered a crowd to arms, starting the revolution.
