Answer:

The king is not the most important piece because it is rarely used, like in the feudal system, where his knights and peasants do most of the work, like knights and pawns on a chess board.

Explanation:

All you need is some knowledge about chess, and feudalism.

In feudal Europe, the monarchy (mainly the king) gave out pieces of land to nobles and aristocrats and taxed them. They would then live in the land, and give it out to knights and peasants. The peasants would be taxed in money and crops in return for the housing and farmland. The knights would generally be given more land, but not by much, and they would protect the land they live on, and if called on by the king, would leave and protect the kingdom. The king got rich, while his pawns worked and died in his name.

Answer: I think the main idea is to show what struggles families faced during the Great Depression. Also, to especially show the struggled children had to face working for their families.

Explanation: Buddy Blankenship starts the paragraph by saying "I told my dad I wasn't going to school anymore". This shows that the author was a child when he started working in the mines with his father. He goes into detail on the struggle he faced, ie, "We got up at 5 in the mornin'" and "We'd work about six hours a day, seventeen hours". This kind of work is grueling and awful for a child.

Which islamic empire controlled territory in europe during early modern era
Svetach [21]

Ottoman Empire.

Explanation:

The only Islamic empire that controlled territory in Europe in the early modern era was the Ottoman Empire. This empire started to develop and expand in the 15th century. The Ottomans managed to use the decline of the surrounding empires so they managed to conquer them with relative ease, thus creating a very large empire on excellent strategic location.

Part of the Ottoman Empire was located in Europe, or more specifically it controlled the Balkan Peninsula. The aspirations of the empire initially were to expand into Central Europe and possibly Western Europe, but the forces of these regions allied and didn't allowed the Ottomans to expand beyond the Balkans. The empire existed until the early 20th century, when it lost most of its territory and was reformed to create the modern day country of Turkey.
