Paper Requirements:
Your writing must in your own authentic voice. Do not use AI programs of any kind.
Using AI is a violation of academic integrity and will result in a grade of 0. Your paper
must meet minimum standards for a college paper. The highest score for a paper that
does not meet minimum standards is a 55. Minimum standards are:
 Proper formatting with your name and course in the upper left-hand corner.
 A title centered. Do not put “quotes” around the title.
 The paper must be double spaced with 12-point font.
 The paper must have a structure with an introduction, and at least three body
paragraphs. Paragraphs must be indented.
 The conclusion can either stand alone as its own paragraph or be incorporated
into the final paragraph of the paper.
 The paper must include examples with citations (see below).
Answer this question:
Why did the Norse begin to migrate away from their homeland? What geographical
challenges did they face as they settled islands in the North Atlantic like Iceland and
Greenland? What was economic and agricultural life like for the Greenland Norse? Why
did the Inuit survive in Greenland while the Norse went into collapse?
Your paper must include a minimum of six citations (at least two each from chapters 6,
7, and 8 of Collapse). See below for how to cite sources.
Citations are needed for both quotes and specific references.
Example 1: Diamond points out that deforestation left the Norse with lumber shortages
so they “came to depend on three sources of timber: Siberian driftwood washed up on
the beaches, imported logs from Norway, and trees felled by the Greenlanders
themselves on voyages to the Labrador coast (“Markland”) discovered in the course of
the Vinland explorations.” (249).
Example 2: Diamond points out that deforestation put the Norse in a position where
they had to rely on Siberian driftwood, imported logs from Norway, and logging trips to
Markland on the Labrador coast.” (249).
In the first example, I quoted Diamond directly. In the second example, I conveyed the
information by paraphrasing. I still need a citation to let the reader know where the
information came from.
