The Roman Colosseum was started to be built in 70 AD, and it officially opened in 80 AD. The Romans wanted to increase their prestige, but also to make their people happy. One way of doing that was of building a huge Colosseum. The finished building was like an amphitheater, with seats around a central point. It was also used to hold meetings and other types of plays that didn't include fighting, like drama.

Have a nice day! :)

3. Explain how the feudal social structure was weakened by the plague and the hundred years' war.​
NeX [460]

Answer:

The plague or Black Death brought about a significant decline in feudalism. In 1348 The Black Death swept through the majority of Europe killing people in the millions. This massive tragedy resulted in the decline of Europe's labor and surf forces and in consequence, the income and wages for the peasant class increased substantially. The higher class naturally did not accept this which in return angered the lower class; thus, resulting in turmoil between both classes. The peasant class soon overcame the higher class effectively abolishing serfdom and feudalism in Europe as a whole.

The shifting of powers from lords to common people saw the decline of feudalism as well. The Hundred Years war brought about new ideas and inventions most notably the inventions of firearms, cannos, and gunpowder. These innovations in military technology made knights and castles seem less reliable. The war promoted feelings of pride and nationalism, the system shifted towards the people and loyalty to monarchs rather than to nobility.

In essence Feudal society as a whole fell due to advancements in technology and agriculture; and the effects of the bubonic plague.

Vlad1618 [11]
The correct answer is B. the USSR. Many of the leaders of the Nationalist Party in the Chinese Civil War were very inspired by the political ideology at the present time in the USSR. They were also very interested in the military system and were sent to Moscow to study it. However, there was a conclusion shortly after that the Soviet system was not the best system suitable for China. Nevertheless, the Chinese Nationalist Party kept close ties to the USSR.
