Determine whether the following characteristics describe monks or the pope.
BigorU [14]

Here's your list:

<u>MONKS</u>;

  • lived in monasteries
  • copied manuscripts  of books

<u>THE POPE</u>:

  • considered to be infallible
  • held the most power within  the hierarchy of the church
  • could excommunicate  the king

Some further explanation:

The history of monasticism (the life of monks) goes back at least as far as the 3rd century of Christian history.  St. Anthony was famous in those days for going out into the desert to live by himself, and others followed his example. Beginning in the 4th century, communities of monks began to form to live in community with one another in monasteries.  Copying books was one of their occupations together, along with prayer and daily tasks.

The office of the pope developed out of the position of the Bishop of Rome.  Over time, the Bishop of Rome asserted more and more power over other bishops in the church.  Leo the Great (5th century) and Gregory the Great (end of 6th century) were two key figures in advancing the power of the "universal bishop" of Rome as leader of the whole church.  The doctrine of the pope being "infallible" (unable to be in error) when speaking on matters of faith and doctrine was not officially proclaimed until the First Vatican Council in the 19th century.  However, that belief about the pope's authority had developed long before that, already during the Middle Ages.

Where in the colonies did the british military concentrate their attacks?
lbvjy [14]
<span>The attacks were mainly placed in the southern colonies: this was due to the prevalence of Loyalists, who had positive trade relations with the British empire. Concentrating the attacks in the south meant fewer colonists hostile to the British cause and a likely easier foothold in the colonies.</span>

What economic activity succeeded the MOST in New England because of the region’s environmental characteristics?
VLD [36.1K]

Answer: Fisheries and shipbuilding.

Explanation:

With the Puritan formation of the colony, New England came to a rapid economic expansion. According to a large number of historians, the area has experienced the greatest economic expansion. The Puritans produced a lot of food, clothing, even their furniture. The trade was very developed; they traded with Europe, India, and the native tribes. The area of New England was very rich. The industry that developed the most overtime was fishing. Since fishing is close to shipbuilding, shipbuilding has also developed. The Puritans exported huge quantities of goods to Europe, and over time, the ports of New England were flooded with ships because the region became one of the largest ports for ships of that time.
