Prior to taking this course, my understanding how the world functioned before the 18th century was vague. There were a few topics I knew a bit about; however, not enough to write a scholarly work on.

All the carelessly disposed of trash eventually accumulates, rather it be in one place, such as a landfill, or in many places just dispersed and spread out, like litter.
