Modern TiMes *

Through the movie we could see for example; how people were affected during this time. In terms of jobs, people should work very hard, long laboral working days to receive little money just to survive. In most of the factories people were working full of unfairness but unfortunately they didn’t have more options. Also, we could appreciate how people were unhappy with the political, economical and social situation of the country. That is the main reason why they were on strike, complaining, protesting on the street and so on. However, the situation did not improve so they had to stay working despite of the injustices. Moreover, in this time machines started to take the control, so was also a period of unemployment.

In the movie we saw that Chaplin got almost crazy because of too much work. So we could infer that maybe people were extremely stressed and getting nuts because of the exploitation and abuse of those times.

In general, Industrialization was a period that brought happiness to those people who were privileged in the society, for example, the owners of factories. But was an unhappy period to those exploited people who have not more opportunities to earn money.

Elizabeth, The golden age.

Based on the movie and the classes that we have had, I can say that the importance of Elizabeth affects in different aspects, such as: cultural, political and economical.
In general, in terms of influences, the monarchy had lots of benefits since Walter Raleigh and Francis Drake started to expand. One important fact is that during her reign literature was spread to many other lands because of the expansion. Elizabeth realized that was extremely important to conquer other places to make them colonies.
In that way, the reign would be bigger and powerful.

Another important issue its that Elizabeth was known as "The Virgin Queen". This is because she never wanted to get married. The main reason was that she replied many times that she was married with her nation (her people). Moreover she had to overcome the prejudice of some people who said that she was not able to govern the country.

Related to religion, as we know Elizabeth was protestant. Despite of her thoughts she allowed her people to believe in whatever they wanted. She was noted by protecting all the people just because they were human beings, so they deserved all the respect. I believe that she was loved because of that.

Elizabeth I is known as one of the best queens that England could ever had.
