Masterchief E.Q.
Imagine that you are a religious, but superstitious, peasant living in the middle ages. Invent an explanation for the famine that has struck your village.
I would blame the preacher of the village because what ever happened I would think we made god mad so I would think that the preacher is having a miscommunication with the lord because he is the one that speaks for the lord. He probably is doing it on purpose to make us suffer. I will have the preacher killed and replaced with someone who can truly speak with god.

Masterchief (E.Q.)
Why did the Vikings, the Magyars, and the Slavs leave their homelands and invade Western Europe?
How did these invasions change the Western Europe’s' economy?
As the feuds weekend the kingdoms outside invasions swept in and nearly erased them. The Slavs walked in from the east to evade the center of Europe. An unfamiliar group from Asia hopped in leaving the area’s devastated. But the far worse of al the battles came from the Vikings from present day counties Norway and Sweden. These invasions from the Vikings had to of completely destroyed the economies of Europe because they stole everything and if they could not still it the burned it. Although the Vikings were more than just raiders they were also skilled in trading and could some a little a bit of these economies.

If a famine were to strike the village that i lived in, i would blame the last person to come into the village. Since i am a superstitious person the only person to blame is the who started it. It was good until they came in, but since then life has gone south. It would be the logical explination for this happening.

Senator E.Q.
Here's my answer to the E.Q.: Why did conflicts develop between popes and monarchs? Could have their disputes been resolved peacefully?
Conflicts between the popes and monarchs begin to arise due to the idea that monarchs have the well-being of the country and the economy in sites, whereas the pope has the well-being of Christianity as a whole in sight. The problem with this is that popes have quite a bit more power than the monarchs. The monarchs are free to do with whatever they feel necessary until the pope says otherwise. The problem with the pope being the main spokesperson for the whole religion is basically, who is to say the way this ONE man’s interpretations are the correct ones…no one. If he states that the French need to attack the Germans, but the monarchs are saying “no this could ruin us”, he must do so anyway. Their disputes could have been talked over to decide what to do rather than just the one mind set of…the pope is always right. Although he may be, no one knows for sure, therefore it is always better to talk things over and not to stick with what the big man says all the time.

John Jacob Jingle Hiemer Schmidt ( Popes and Monarchs )
Conflicts developed between Popes and monarchs for a couple of reasons. First, the Pope had more power than the monarch so there was always a power struggle between the two. The Pope always had the last word because he served "God." The monarch only served his country so the people would always listen to the Pope if the two orders contridicted each other.
The conflicts could have easily been resolved peacefully by the Pope and the Monarch agreeing on a decision and making comprimises with each other. This could have brought more solidity in the heirarchy of their society.

Well, Templaits in particulary was not even a class, it was a little goverment. They had their own rules, own gold. They started 7 wars. They had "step" system. The Philip the beautifull(One of the successfulliest) was even so jealous of them!
