Which of the following best describes the internal political turmoil that contributed to the decline of the Byzantine Empire?

A group of peasants banded together in an attempt to overthrow the imperial family and become the ruling class.
Church leaders fought with the emperors over who ruled the Empire.
Siblings within the imperial family fought over which one was the true emperor.
A group of wealthy landowners attempted to control the military.

there is no lesson its kinda like for the teacher to know what you know and what u don't know but there is points with the question so and btw is the answer a

This is a matter of some debate among historians and scholars. Economic decline, influence of the Church, etc., all seemed to contribute. Read this for a perspective, then rethink your answer. C is wrong.

Have you read anything: your text or the link?

Oscar -- if this is what you're getting as an education, you are being cheated!

However, I'm sure there was some kind of learning assignment preceding this question.

And Oscar, if you click on the link I gave you, you will find a one paragraph summary of the decline of the Byzantine Empire. It's one paragraph! If you can't read that, there is little hope for you to ever be educated.

I think you forgot to post the link.

yea theres no link

D.A group of wealthy landowners attempted to control the military.
