The Mandate of Heaven could best be described as "<span>D. The gods would only allow good and just leaders to rule," since this theory holds that kings and queens are "mandated" by God to rule. </span>

Answer:    D. The gods would only allow good and just leaders to rule.

Explanation:  According to the concept of the Mandate of Heaven, the leader would be chosen according to gods' will and as such would have the mandate to rule the people and the state. In such cases, the leader would receive a blessing from religious leaders who were usually in a political union.  One who, with the help of a powerful army, would rule over some people, would be conquest rather than the Mandate of Heaven. On the other hand, if the ruler was elected by the will of the people, it would be form of democracy.

How are the landforms of europe both an advantage and disadvantage
dlinn [17]

Answer:

Among the advantages we can name the fact that across most Europe there are fertile soils, long river systems, the terrain makes traveling easy and therefore more open to trade since there are no physical borders.

However, this same factor turns into a serious disadvantage in times of war. The lack of physical borders makes countries easier to invade, as was probed in the numerous cities captured by the Nazi regime in WWII. Disease transmissions and undesired immigration are also a frequent problem with open borders.

What Was The Role Of The Roman Catholic Church During The Middle Ages?
4vir4ik [10]
First, the Roman Catholic Church was the only church at this time.  As such, it was felt to have a monopoly on religious knowledge and on the relationship between Europeans and God.  In other words, the Church could control who went to Heaven and who went to Hell.  This gave it tremendous power over people’s lives.  The Church did much to determine how people would live since it said what was permissible and what was not.Second, the Church was a major political force during this time.  Kings and queens wanted and needed papal approval, particularly when they were somewhat weak (as in times of conflict over succession).  This, among other things, allowed the Church to exercise political power as it could help to determine which claimants to a throne would be deemed acceptable.  There was a long history of tension between the church and secular authority over this and other political issues.<span>Finally, the Church was deeply involved in economic life.  The Church controlled a great deal of land (the main source of wealth at this time), largely because it owned monasteries.  By owning all the land connected to the monasteries (often willed to it by people wanting to ensure their own salvation), the Church was a major economic power.</span>
