Jewish people were allowed to do this, making them crucial for building castles, cathedrals, and funding the king. c They introduced the concept of parliamentary taxation. d They formed the backbone of the English textile industry. 3 The Jews (1070) The outcome a They became the royal family’s advisers. b They gained full political rights in England. c They established permanent settlements in Ireland. d Antisemitism grew, and in 1290, King Edward I expelled all Jewish people from England.

When the French King made Protestantism illegal in 1685, they faced terrible persecution. Around 50,000 fled to Britain as refugees. b They were exiled for tax evasion. c They came to invade Britain. d They were invited to lead English parliaments. 7 The Early Modern Period (1500 – 1750) The Huguenots (1680s) Their impact a They founded the Royal Navy. b Many were highly skilled artisans.

The word refugee actually comes from the French word they used: réfugié. c They created the first English university. d They introduced the steam engine to Britain. 8 Early African Communities (1500s – 1700s) Why they came a Africans lived in Tudor Britain as free individuals, working as musicians, divers, and soldiers; by the 1600s and 1700s, Britain's involvement in the transatlantic slave trade meant many Africans were brought to Britain forcibly as domestic servants by wealthy merchants. b They came as European ambassadors. c They migrated mainly for leisure. d They were invited to study English medicine. 9 Early African Communities (1500s – 1700s) Their impact a Despite hardships, early Black Britons formed tight-knit communities, fought for abolition, and challenged the legal status of slavery within Britain itself. b They had no lasting influence on British society. c They replaced the English language with African languages. d They enslaved the British population. 10 The Industrial & Empire Era (1750 – 1900) The Irish (1800s) Why they came a Ireland was part of the British Empire, but suffered from deep poverty.

The government turned to the British Empire and Commonwealth, inviting citizens from the Caribbean and South Asia to help rebuild the mother country. b They came as tourists only. c They came to escape a famine in the Caribbean. d They were forced to migrate due to new laws. 17 The Modern Era (1900 – Present) South Asian & Caribbean Migration (1948 – 1970s) Their impact a They reduced Britain’s cultural diversity. b They had no impact on British industry or culture. c They left Britain within a decade. d This period transformed British society. Caribbean migrants heavily staffed the NHS and London Transport. South Asian migrants revitalized the textile industries in the North of England, opened businesses, and introduced South Asian cuisine, which became a staple of British life. 18 The Modern Era (1900 – Present) The European Union (2000s) Why they came a They came to visit friends. b They were invited to govern Britain. c They came as part of a military alliance. d In 2004, the EU expanded to include several Eastern European nations, including Poland, Lithuania, and Romania.
