Explaining Why does a natural disaster (drought, flood) in an agricultural region almost always result in higher prices for comm
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer and Explanation:

Natural disasters such as these can cause damages to agricultural products Any region experiencing frequent flooding and drought will have a reduction in productivity level. When this happens, the supply of agricultural products in the region will fall and demand will go up. Based on the law of demand and supply, this will result in the prices of commodities going up.

Drought and flood causes loss of livestock, storage problems, transportation issues and a fall in output. An increase in prices is used to cover up for some of these. An increase in input costs also causes price increase.

The italian City-states were in a central___ for trade.<br> Fill in the blank
Reil [10]

he Italian city-states were a political phenomenon of small independent states mostly in the central and northern Italian peninsula between the 9th and 15th centuries.

After the fall of the Western Roman Empire, urban settlements in Italy generally enjoyed a greater continuity than in the rest of western Europe. Many of these towns were survivors of earlier Etruscan, Umbrian and Roman towns which had existed within the Roman Empire. The republican institutions of Rome had also survived. Some feudal lords existed with a servile labour force and huge tracts of land, but by the 11th century, many cities, including Venice, Milan, Florence, Genoa, Pisa, Lucca, Cremona, Siena, Perugia, Spoleto, Todi, Terni, and many others, had become large trading metropoles, able to obtain independence from their formal sovereigns.
