### A term paper in three sections. The first section is about the origins of a particular empire and must be 1,000 words long. The second and third sections deal with the trajectory and end of this same empire. Analyze the basic forces which determined the course of this empire over time. Have a strong, original argument in each section and over the whole term paper.
### The first draft of each part of the term paper dealing with the origins of a particular empire will be given a technical grade based on being on time, having the right number of words, avoiding plagiarism, including footnotes and a bibliography, including five relevant, documented images.
You should have five separate images for each of the three sections of the term paper. Images could be of photos, paintings or sculpture, buildings, maps and diagrams. Do not use any images found in the course materials. Describe exactly what is in the images, who made them, when they were made and where they are from. ### A term paper in three sections.

You should have five primary sources and five secondary sources for each of the three sections of the paper. Primary sources were written or made at the time of the historical events in question. Secondary sources should be scholarly books or articles with footnotes and issued by an academic press after going through a peer review process. Good places to find scholarly articles are JSTOR and Project MUSE, both to be found in the FIU Library’s list of databases. Scholarly books are mostly put out by university presses.
