The Marshall Plan rebuilt European countries' economies after the devasation of World War II.
Explanation/context:
The "Marshall Plan" was named after the man who then was US Secretary of State, George C. Marshall. Officially the plan was called the European Recovery Program. Marshall announced the plan in 1947, and it went into effect in 1948. The intent was to provide aid and rebuilding to European economies after the damaging effects of World War II. Eastern bloc countries, however, rejected the plan, so it ended up as a plan that benefited Western European nations and not Eastern European nations.
In his speech introducing the plan, Secretary Marshall had said: "Our policy is not directed against any country, but against hunger, poverty, desperation and chaos. Any government that is willing to assist in recovery will find full co-operation on the part of the United States. Its purpose should be the revival of a working economy in the world so as to permit the emergence of political and social conditions in which free institutions can exist."
The view in the communist-controlled Eastern bloc was that the US was trying to use such a policy to spread its influence and threaten their patterns of government under communism. So the plan ended up building allies for the US in Western Europe, while the Eastern European countries sided with the Soviet Union.
Answer:
In a nutshell, the Crusades helped to end the Feudalism
The Crusades were one role in the vast play we call the decline of feudalism. How did these military movements help? The Christian armies that were going to retake the Holy Land were making the economy work. They had to buy and sell goods, promoting a trade exchange that was crucial to the urban renaissance. Beyond this economic factor, the Crusades were responsible for a cultural exchange that was good for Europe. The contact with other cultures and points of view helped to open the continent to new ideas, turning the feudalism an outdated system.
The British had tons of internal and domestic problems to face their own, so basically from the beginning (early 1600's) they entered into a period of salutary neglect (where they didn't enforce their own laws)
