What allowed cities to grow in the tenth and eleventh centuries?
Answer:
Although historians disagree about the extent of the social and material damage caused by the 9th- and 10th-century invasions, they agree that demographic growth began during the 10th century and perhaps earlier. They have also identified signs of the reorganization of lordship and agricultural labour, a process in which members of an order of experienced and determined warriors concentrated control of land in their own hands and coerced a largely free peasantry into subjection. Thus did the idea of the three orders of society—those who fight, those who pray, and those who labour—come into use to describe the results of the ascendancy of the landholding aristocracy and its clerical partners. In cooperation with bishops and ecclesiastical establishments, particularly great monastic foundations such as Cluny (established 910), the nobility of the late 11th and 12th centuries reorganized the agrarian landscape and rural society of western Europe and made it the base of urbanization, which was also well under way in the 11th century.

6. The Cold War was the ideological, political, and economic conflict between the United States and the Soviet Union following World War II. During the Cold War, each country tried to limit the other country's influence around the world by building nuclear weapons, supplying weapons and money to other countries to gain their support, and spreading false information about the other. While the two countries never came into direct, open conflict with each other, they did come into indirect conflict numerous times. This included the Cuban Missile Crisis, when the world seemed on the edge of a nuclear war.
A historian has made the claim that too much is being made of the Cold War and that it was never a significant threat to world peace, as proven by the fact that the United States and the Soviet Union never went to war.
Read these excerpts from speeches given by Nikita Khrushchev, Fidel Castro, and John F. Kennedy during the Cold War. Use the information from the three passages to write a historical essay that responds to the historian's claim. Be sure to include an introduction paragraph with a thesis, body paragraphs with at least three pieces of evidence supporting your thesis, a counterclaim to your thesis, and a refutation of that counterclaim. Finally, include a conclusion paragraph restating your thesis and the evidence supporting it.
Passage 1: Soviet premier Nikita Khrushchev addressed the UN Assembly in 1960 after U.S. military aircraft allegedly entered Soviet airspace.
We saw a dangerous manifestation of the work of these forces last spring when the aircraft of one of the largest States Members of the United Nations, the United States of America, treacherously invaded the air space of the Soviet Union and that of other States. What is more, the United States has elevated such violations of international law into a principle of deliberate State policy. The aggressive intrusion into our country by a United States aircraft and the whole course of the United States Government's subsequent behaviour showed the peoples that they were dealing with a calculated policy on the part of the United States Government, which was trying to substitute brigandage for international law and treachery for honest negotiations between sovereign and equal States.3
Passage 2: Cuban prime minister Fidel Castro made a speech in 1961 after the United States sponsored the failed Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba, a Soviet ally.
Our position is that we will fight to the last man, but we do not want direct aggression. We do not wish to suffer the destruction that aggression would bring. If the aggression comes, it will meet the total resistance of our people.
. . . They are the ones who are bringing the world to the brink of war through their warlike spirit, their own contradictions, and their economic problems which cause them to provoke a series of crises in order to maintain their war economy. Their factories run only when they are building war material. Their regime is marching toward a crisis. It is not like our economy, which is perfectly planned.4
Passage 3: U.S. president John F. Kennedy addressed the United States after it was discovered that the Soviet Union had placed nuclear weapons in Cuba, just 70 miles from the U.S. border.
I want to take this opportunity to report on the conclusions which this Government has reached on the basis of yesterday's aerial photographs which will be made available tomorrow, as well as other indications, namely, that the Soviet missile bases in Cuba are being dismantled, their missiles and related equipment are being crated, and the fixed installations at these sites are being destroyed.

What were the major similarities AND differences between the idea of "Kingship" in England, France, and Iberia?
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The major similarities and differences between the idea of "Kingship" in England, France, and Iberia were the following.
The similarities between the three were that these kingdoms ambitioned too much power and control by exploring, conquering, and colonizing new colonies that could get their respective kings more richness.
These kingdoms sent explorers to navigate and discover new routes and places to conquer. That is how, for instance, Christopher Columbus was sponsored by the King of Spain Ferdinand de Aragon and Queen Isabelle del Castille, to sail and discover the Americans on October 12, 1492.
These monarchies were violent and tried to conquer and took possession of territories no matter what.
The main difference between these three monarchies was the approach they had when conquering and colonizing new territories.
The kingdom of Spain conquered native tribes in Mesoamerica, the Caribbean, and South America, but did not destroy the native Indians. The Spaniards conquered great empires of the time such as the Great Aztec Empire or the Inca Empire, but they sent Catholic missioners to evangelize the Indians into the Catholic church principles. The Indians under Spanish rule were servants.
In the case of the English, the first colony that was founded was Jamestown, Virginia, in 1607, in the North American territory. The white English colonists were very interested in settle the land to exploit the many raw materials and natural resources. To do that they had to fight and remove the Native American Indians that already lived there. The whites are were only interested in work the land to be rich.
In the case of France, the French were not really interested in settle the land or took it away from the Native Indians. The French were interested in getting rich through the fur trade to sell the beautiful and expensive animal fur in the European markets. That is why the French had a much better relationship with the Native American Indian tribes.
