Additional Extra Credit

For those who cannot make it to the MSA event,  here is another opportunity for you.

Your task is to create a formal invitation for 3 separate continents to attend the opening of the Suez Canal by Egypt.  This means that you need to invite a christian/muslim African, christian European, and a hindu/buddhist/muslim Asian.  So your invitations must cater to the people who live on those continents during the time when the Suez Canal opened.

You will need to turn in 3 separate invitations to receive extra credit.  Do not make them look modern through a publisher program.  Most from the time period would have been hand written by a professional.  Keep that in mind as you create your invitations.

Due Date: April 9th 2012
