Explanation:
During their transformation, Europe experienced all of the following except the decline of the middle class.
Answer: Option C
<u>Explanation:
</u>
It was in fact during the period of transformation that the middle class grew dramatically in Europe. New opportunities of employment enabled the levitation of the lower class to the middle class.
Transformation brought prosperity, increased economic stability, and an enhanced standard of living. Agriculture was no more the only medium to fetch economic gains through. Thus, the middle class grew rapidly.
Social stratification refers to a system which people in a given community are divided into layers according to their relative property, power, and prestige. Great Britain has a class system that is divided into a class system that is divided into lower, middle and upper classes of which only 1% of the population falls under the upper class of the most powerful and highly educated, while the rest is evenly divided into middle and lower (working) class.

Answer:
Thesis: Whether it is religion or ideology, it has always played an influential role in the making of empires.
Explanation:
The reconquest of Muslim Spain by the Catholics started around the turn of the new milennium. This was a joint effort by Spanish kingdoms (state) and the catholic church. Once succeded the Spanish, united by religion, drove the Jews out, as other European counties had done before them.
The Muslim resurgence between the 14th and the 16 century can likewise be seen as religion coinciding with state expansion. The Ottoman Empire in East Europe and Minor Asia is one example but also the Mughal Empire in India and Persia were important in spreading the Muslim faith all the way to China and Indonesia. So for a short time these three Muslim empires controlled a territory from Morocco in the West to the borders of China in the East. Not for long because the clash between Sunnite Turkey and Shi'ite Persia drove a wedge into the Muslim world.
It is safe to say that Muslim (land) hegemony ended when military hegemony was passing to the sea and to the peoples who knew how to master and exploit it.
