3. Correct

4. Correct

To get the answer to question 3, we need to have a general understanding of the institutionalization of the English Parliament by the end of the thirteenth century. During this time, the English Parliament was not yet the bicameral system we know today, but rather a single assembly that included a limited number of representatives from different societal groups.

A. This answer is incorrect because the institutionalization of the English Parliament did not provide a foundation for the absolute rule of the monarch. Instead, it was a process that involved power-sharing between the monarch and different groups within society.

B. This answer is incorrect because the barons and church lords did not establish themselves in the House of Commons as a result of the institutionalization of the English Parliament. The House of Commons was initially composed of the knights and burgesses.

C. This answer is correct. The institutionalization of the English Parliament was indeed a system of power-sharing between the monarch and various groups within society. The formation of the legislative body allowed different stakeholders to have a voice in decision-making processes.

D. This answer is incorrect because the knights and burgesses, who represented the lower classes, established themselves in the House of Commons, not the House of Lords.

Therefore, the correct answer to question 3 is C.

To answer question 4, we need to be familiar with the establishment of France's first parliament under Philip IV.

A. This answer is incorrect because the Chambre des Comptes refers to a specific financial institution and not the first parliament established under Philip IV.

B. This answer is correct. The first parliament established under Philip IV is referred to as the "Parlement" in France.

C. This answer is incorrect because the Diet of Paris is not the term used to describe France's first parliament under Philip IV.

D. This answer is incorrect because the Estates-General is an assembly that predates France's first parliament and has a different purpose.

Therefore, the correct answer to question 4 is B.
