AP European History
Unit 4 – Scientific, Philosophical, and Political Developments
Topic 4.4
How might Europe be different today had medical advancements not drastically improved public health during the late-19th century?
Europe could still remain predominantly agrarian instead of industrialized societies due to lower demand for labor force in cities.
Religious institutions could gain more influence, as public health was often tied to religious beliefs and superstitions.
Europe might have been overrun by non-European powers as a result of weak military strength due to health issues in the army.
Life expectancy may have remained low, potentially stagnating population growth and economic development across Europe.
