Answer:
Enough of that Foundations garbage. That was only 5% of the test! You could literally not know any of that and still get a 5. So, let's put on our 'big-boy-pants" and start covering some real history. This is where it all begins. Yeah, in Foundations you have things like... Humans, Fire, Tools, Hierarchy, Religion, Writing. But, this is where history actually takes form. This is where you will get your stereotypical views of certain areas. This is where Western Europe takes root. This is where India becomes India. This is where China becomes China. Later on, areas like Africa, the Middle East, the Americas, et al will come into their own. This era really deals with the Classical Civilizations (Mediterranean, India, China) and the trade between them and what goes along with that.

As states and empires increased in size and contacts between regions multiplied, religious and cultural systems were transformed. Religions and belief systems provided a bond among the people and an ethical code to live by. These shared beliefs also influenced and reinforced political, economic, and occupational stratification. Religious and political authority often merged as rulers (some of whom were considered divine) used religion, along with military and legal structures, to justify their rule and ensure its continuation. Religions and belief systems could also generate conflict, partly because beliefs and practices varied greatly within and among societies.
