Mapping Trade An Indian Ocean Trade Simulation

Assigned Groups: Kilwa CJ, Mackenzie, Amie, Lindsay Malindi Gabe, Bayush, Grace, Jamie Mombasa Sydney, Max, Cody, Madison Goa Michael, Sam, Joelle, Emma Sri Lanka Andrew W., Amber, Safiya, Matthew B. Malacca Andrew H., Dylan, Rebecca Java Sierra, Lisanne, Matthew R., Zachara

Procedures: Overall Goal  Profit! 1.After completing your “How to Make a Profit” sheets, your group will plan its merchant voyages. 2.Each group can make 2 round trips for trade purposes. You must start in the region of your assigned city. (Africa or Asia) 3.On each trip, your group may buy and/or sell products. Keep track of your overall profits in each round. 4.You will have 15 minutes to determine the best approach for your voyages, complete your balance sheet, and determine your total profits for your voyage. 5.Five minutes into our simulation, your team will be given a “Chance” card detailing a unaccounted for outcome. Read the card and follow the directions.

Let’s Trade!

Debriefing: 1.Why would similar products have different prices in different locations? 2.What proved to be the most valuable trade product? Why might this be? 3.Was the interaction that would have occurred been solely financial? How might it have been cultural, social, and/or political? 4.Would a civilization benefit from being a part of this type of trading network? 5.What civilizations were notably left out of this trade? 6.How would a city like Kilwa compare economically to a city like London? 7.In what way was this a flawed simulation? What didn’t we account for?

Essential Question: Where and How did Islam gain a foothold in India? Islam gained a foothold in Northern India through conquest (Delhi Sultanate) and along the east coast of India by merchants / trade (the Indian Ocean trade network).

Chapter 15 – Key Points to Remember India influenced its surrounding societies just as Greece, Rome, Constantinople, and China did. However, the great difference between India and these four civilizations was that no centralized Indian state developed after the Mauryan Empire, whereas… o The Greeks were centralized under Alexander the Great o Rome in the Roman Empire o Constantinople (eastern Roman Empire) in the Byzantine Empire o China under subsequent dynasties especially the Han and the Tang.

Merchants were the primary force spreading Indian ideas of religion and politics to southeast Asia. Hinduism and Islam became the dominant religions in India. o Buddhism had greater success outside of its home. Islam took hold in the north due to conquest and along the trading cities (emporia) of the east coast due to trade. o Islam was embraced by many in the lower castes? Why?

Sufis – Islamic missionaries who didn’t represent Islam as an exclusive faith. Bhakti movemen t attempted to erase the distinction between Hinduism and Islam; and tried to show a way in which these two religions could coexist.

Indian Ocean Trade Network remained the LARGEST trade network in the world until the 1600s. Why? The Age of Exploration by that time had opened up the HUGE markets of North and South America.

Why was it in India? 4.What was traded in the Indian Ocean trade network? 5.What were the limitations of the Indian Ocean Trade network? 6.Where and how did Islam gain a foothold in India?
