ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS For this project, you will submit parallel time lines for the regions of the ancient world, and a chart containing the dates and events from the time lines.
Step 1: Prepare for the project.

If anything is not clear to you, ask your teacher for assistance.
Step 2: Research background information on early Muslim empires and at least one other civilization.
Determine which other civilization you will study (such as China, the Mongol Empire, or the Byzantine Empire).
Review your notes to help you determine key events and dates in the rise of early Muslim empires.
Research the key events and dates for both time lines.
Identify at least ten key events and dates during the rise of early Muslim empires.
