1. “In Europe, the century of 1700 was about intellectual and social development. On the other hand, the century of 1800 was more concerned with economic and political development.” Justify the statement.

At the beginning of 1700 (precisely around 1715) the European continent was starting the enlightenment movement, where the population would begin to detach itself from religious concepts and start to seek to grow intellectually through the study of science from all branches, as long as it was promoted an intellectual and social knowledge about the communities and all the elements that make up the world. At that time, there was a great search for academic knowledge, which gave the basis for knowledge about politics and economics.

This knowledge was intensified in 1800, when a community with knowledge, began to question the need for a monarchy to maintain a good political and economic establishment of nations. This generated a series of reforms that brought European nations closer to the governmental forms that we can see in them today.
