1. Correct
2. Not correct, re-read your text.
A is correct nice job IDK.
I think that For the first question is B, because if the kings couldn't hire enough people , the black death would have killed of any or all of the people who worked the land, The second question would be A, because if you read your textbook it would possibly say that he would have spread because the Western Roman Empire collapsed after they had been invaded by the 300s “barbarian” groups like the Goths
B
the first one is correct.
To determine the reason for the breakdown of the feudal order after the Black Death, we can analyze the options provided and eliminate those that are unlikely or do not align with historical accounts.
Option A states that peasants overthrew kings and took over governments. While the Black Death did lead to social upheaval and unrest, it did not result in widespread peasant uprisings leading to the overthrow of monarchs. Therefore, we can eliminate this option.
Option B suggests that lords could not hire enough people to work their land. This is a plausible reason for the breakdown of the feudal order. The Black Death significantly reduced the population, leading to a labor shortage. With fewer workers available, lords would have struggled to maintain their land and property, leading to a shift in the traditional power dynamics of the feudal system.
Option C claims that the Church became more powerful. While the Black Death did have some impact on the Church, such as a loss of credibility due to its inability to stop the spread of the disease, it did not result in a significant increase in the Church's power. Therefore, we can eliminate this option as well.
Option D suggests that knights no longer wanted to serve lords. While the Black Death may have caused some knights to reconsider their service, it is unlikely to be a primary reason for the breakdown of the feudal order. Knights were bound by strict codes of chivalry and loyalty to their lords, and it is improbable that a sudden change in their attitudes would have resulted in the collapse of the feudal system.
Based on the analysis above, the correct answer is B. Lords could not hire enough people to work their land.
Moving on to the second question regarding the spread of Christianity throughout Europe, we can assess the options provided to identify the correct answer.
Option A suggests that Charlemagne was responsible for spreading Christianity throughout Europe. Charlemagne, also known as Charles the Great, was indeed a prominent figure who played a significant role in the expansion of Christianity during the Carolingian Empire. His efforts to evangelize and convert the pagan tribes in present-day Germany, as well as his support for the Church, contributed to the spread of Christianity. Therefore, this option is a potential correct answer.
Option B mentions Charles Martel. While Charles Martel was a pivotal figure in European history, known for his victory over the Moors in the Battle of Tours, he did not directly contribute to the widespread dissemination of Christianity. Therefore, we can eliminate this option.
Option C refers to Louis I. Louis I, also known as Louis the Pious, was a ruler of the Carolingian Empire, succeeding his father, Charlemagne. While he did play a role in maintaining Christianity within the empire, he did not have the same impact on expanding its reach as his father. Therefore, we can eliminate this option as well.
Option D mentions Clovis I. Clovis I was the first king of the Franks and played a crucial role in the conversion of the Franks to Christianity. His baptism in 496 AD marked the beginning of the widespread Christianization of the Frankish Kingdom. Therefore, this option is also a potential correct answer.
Based on the analysis above, the correct answers can either be A. Charlemagne or D. Clovis I, as both had significant contributions to the spread of Christianity throughout Europe.
