When playing chess, is the King the most powerful piece? How does that relate to the feudal system in Medieval Europe?

History

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.

blagie [28]

Answer:

  • The Bush coalition in the 2000 election included not only Republicans (his party supporters), but also voters identifying themselves as independents and as socially conservative Democrats.

Explanation:

In the 2000 election, around 90% of Republican voters said they supported George W. Bush.  He also got support from about 60% of voters identifying themselves as independents, as well as nearly 30% of voters identifying themselves as socially conservative Democrats.  (Source of statistics: Pew Research Center polling, "The 2000 Elections.")

"Compassionate conservatism" advocated for traditional families, welfare reform, strengthening education, and providing assistance to people and countries in poverty.  George W. Bush described it this way:  "It is compassionate to actively help our citizens in need. It is conservative to insist on accountability and results."
