Why did Pope Urban II call the First Crusade in 1095 When Alexius I appealed for aid in the Council of Piacenza in March 1095, it wasn’t surprising that the First Crusade occurred only a few months afterwards, as it was considered by historians “premediate” and resulted from the long-existing opposition to many factors. Building up towards 1095, Christendom was perceived to be threatened both externally by heretical military expansions and internally by the destructive knightly class and the concern for Jerusalem, while Urban was resolute to maximise the papacy’s power, and his own success, through setting the Christian agenda. Since 9th Century, Christendom had been threatened religiously and militarily by heresies, providing Urban in 1095
For instance, the map shows in Document 1 that England had a myriad of Major canals and railroads. These ways of transportation allowed England to trade with other countries so they could have more resources and money to help them develop new inventions. The empire also helped the Industrial
The peasant revolts in the German states from 1524-1526 were caused primarily by the extended manipulation of many Lutheran ideals, as well as grievances toward their lords and superiors, while the responses of this revolt were solely condemning of those participating. The compassionate doctrines of the recently introduced lutheran doctrines provided much justification for the Peasant revolts of the 1520’s. Documents one and three demonstrate this idea of Lutheranism. Document one is of Leonhard von Eck, the Chancellor of Bavaria as he reports to the Duke of Bavaria.
During an era in which London’s municipal government had no clue on how to run a metropolis, which led to environmental and health conflicts. Many downs happened in the environment which threatened to wipe out London’s human population. Some of them were that Londoners began to use more water than ever before. The cities plumbing system wasn't advance enough to resist the countless of water being used, meaning that sewers often overflowed. Also, London’s population was extremely growing, and corpses were being buried in wastelands.
Before reading Julie Kerr’s examination into the curious, and perilous dangers that were faced within monastic wall, it would be natural to assume that this is a topic that needs no investigation. This presumption is quickly overturned within the brief, but completely entertaining, Health and Safety in the Medieval Monasteries of Britain. Kerr dives into the world of these monks, and gives us a small glimpse into the many hazards that they faced throughout their work. Not only does Kerr’s work give an amusing look into the incidences and accidents within monastic life, but also demonstrated the fragility of life within Medieval Britain regardless of vocation. Kerr divides these into categories of discussion such as, incidents of self-affliction, construction accidents, and simple missteps, but all show that within Medieval Britain, there were many dangers outside of the routinely researched plagues and epidemics.
In the time period from 600- 1450 C.E, at the beginning of the post classical era there was an increase in trade and major religions such as Christianity, Buddhism, and Islam began to spread through trading routes such as the silk roads. The silk roads made easier the spread of many ideas and goods such as weaponry across regions. As these religions spread they became the foundation of new empires and allowing a structure and keeping peace among the people. Over time trade became more and more important with merchants traveling long distances and selling luxury goods to the elites, and commerce on the Indian ocean allowed for an abundance of goods to be transported over a large distance by sea, thus new states and empires coming into greater
Between 1450 and 1700, almost half of Europe was living in poverty. As famine, war, and economic dislocation grew rampant, there were regions where 80 percent of the population faced starvation daily. The massive poor population led to a myriad of attitudes and responses towards the poor, including that the poor were idle, that they needed to be regulated, that helping the poor was the moral thing to do, and that the poor should be helped because it will improve the life of the donor.
In the 1600’s England was ruled by King Charles 1 whom was set on enforcing his religious views upon his people. These views were carried out through the Church of England. In an effort to escape the persecution and corruption in which they found themselves, two groups broke away from the church and fled the country. These groups consisted of the puritans and the pilgrims. They came to explore, to make money, to spread and exercise their religion freely, and to live on land of their own.
(Hosseini,) The holy capital was moved from Kidev to Vladimir in 1299, then moved to Moscow in 1322.(Hossein)This enhanced the significance of Moscow. However, the churches started to be built again and a legal document was made in order to protect the church (iarlyk). The church flourished partially because of the fallen political unity, as well as the protection that the document provided. This was issued in 1267 and allowed the church to strengthen.
The other reason was because of the supply of cheap and abundant labor that emerged as the enclosure movement forced many landless farmers to move to towns and cities.

The Black Death was an outbreak of bubonic plague, which is a highly contagious bacterial infection and disease. The Bubonic Plague spread across Europe in the years 1346-53. 25% of the European population was wiped out by the disease. People knew when they had the black plague, when the symptoms started to show. The black plague came to Europe from Asia, and had social and economic effects on Medieval Europe.

People in England needed imports from the colonies. The colonies put out many exports, and expanded their resources and economy. As a result, the economic value of land was highly important. If a colony settled on fertile land and was able to produce cash crops from it, the money could be rewarding. This gave all a chance, required no skill, except manual hard labor.
Before the used of the English language, the Parliament used French as their official language. In 1362 the government of Edward III issued a statute that is one of the best-known, but least-understood statements on the use of the vernacular in medieval England. The legislation required that English, rather than French, should be the compulsory language of oral communication in all royal and seigniorial courts in land. There are a few impacts on the development of English such as the member of the parliament will understand better in English than in French due to the fact that French is much unknown in England. By changing the official language from French to English, the member of the England Parliament would understand better and there won’t
The area around Ironbridge is described by those promoting it as a tourist destination as the "Birthplace of the Industrial Revolution". This description is based on the idea that Abraham Darby perfected the technique of smelting iron with coke, in Coalbrookdale, allowing much cheaper production of iron. However, the industrial revolution did not "begin" in one place, but in many. Smelting iron by Darby was but one small part of this generalised revolution and was soon superseded by the great iron-smelting areas. However, the bridge – being the first of its kind fabricated from cast iron, and one of the few which have survived to the present day – remains an important symbol representative of the dawn of the industrial age.[citation needed]
