Okay, gang, I will keep this one simple. I found an interesting show created last year titled The Ascent of Money. You can watch this by clicking the link below. However, you only need to watch the first 25 minutes or so. If you want to earn 5 extra credit points than this is what you do. Compose an essay that summarizes the part about Pizzaro, the Inca, and the big problem the Spanish didn't realize they would have to deal with (see if you get it), then explain why the Arabic numerals were better than Roman numerals and the IMPACT this had on financial history!
That's it!
