Answer:

Keep this little phrase in mind: <u>gold, glory, and God.</u> In that order. The reason the Catholic monarchs Isabella and Ferdinand sponsored Columbus was

  • <u>gold.</u> They wanted to get rich off of gold, which would enable them to increase their wealth and trading power as per the economic system of mercantilism.
  • <u>glory.</u> They wanted their names to be famous. Two of the islands that Columbus saw were named after the two rulers (Isabela Island and Fernandina).
  • <u>God.</u> They were highly Catholic (remember the Spanish Inquisition?) and they wanted to spread that, in theory, to the primitive natives.

Answer:

Attacks of Germanic groups, violence and break down of trade.

Explanation:

The problems faced by western Europe after the fall of the Roman Empire are attacks of Germanic groups, violence and break down of trade. Germanic invaders attacked on western European cities and cause great damage to the people as well as property. The kings were too weak to repel the invaders so many citizens of the city moved into the countryside in order to save their lives. The Magna Carta was written in order to get peace and void violence between the king and the rebels. Everyone is subject to the law, even the king, guarantees the rights to every individuals, the right to justice and the right to a fair trial are the key points of Magna Carta. Magna Carta has directly influenced future political thoughts and the creation of laws, such as the United States Constitution, Declaration of Independence and Bill of Rights.
