They responded with force and put down any unrest or uprisings.

Here are two examples:

June, 1953, East Germany.  Construction workers in East Berlin began the protests, demanding an increase in work hours and calling for a general strike.  The call to strike was broadcast over Radio in the American Sector (RIAS) in West Berlin and heard throughout East Germany.  Over a million workers in 700 cities and towns heeded the call to strike on June 17, 1953.  The Soviet Union responded swiftly and harshly, declaring a state of emergency and sending in tanks to larger cities where protests were occurring.
October/November, 1956 - Hungary.Protesters took to the streets in Hungary in October, 1956, demanding freedom from Soviet domination and more democratic political processes. Soviet domination and oppression continued relentlessly, as the USSR sent tanks and troops and crushed the Hungarian Uprising.  Thousands of Hungarians were killed or wounded and over 200,000 fled the country.

Arrange the following groups in the proper order according to their place in society: Serfs, nobles, clergy, merchants, monarchs
mojhsa [17]

The correct order is the following.

We are talking about social classes during the feudal system in the European Middle Ages. So the classification was the following.

At the top of the pyramid, was the king, followed by the nobles, then the knights and vassals, next, farmers, merchants, and craftsmen. And at the bottom of the pyramid, peasants, and serfs.

The feudal system worked out well during the Middle ages in Europe. It protected people who were dedicated to doing their jobs, meanwhile, the nobility tried to exert its power and influence on the king and the pope.
