Additional notes:
I've seen some people answer this question with item D, saying commoners supported Henry VIII's dissolution of the monasteries because they were Puritans. That is incorrect, however, because the Puritan movement did not begin until later, under the reign of Elizabeth.
I've also seen some challenge to this question's conclusions overall, arguing that the common people were less supportive of Henry's move against the monasteries than has typically been stated. <em>Daily History, </em>for instance, presents this argument:
- <em>The literature for many centuries argued that the monastic system in England was corrupt and in decline. Recent research shows that this was not the case and while some monasteries were corrupt most of them were not. The monks were usually deeply religious and played an important role in the local economy and society. Additionally, the monasteries were often popular with the local community.</em>
The objection to the monasteries came from reformers more so than from the rank and file of commoners. Reformers disliked monasticism and thought them overall to be corrupt.

The factories could basically set whatever policies they wanted, and workers were more or less powerless to do much about them. Conditions were often unsanitary and dangerous. Men typically held supervisory roles, and with that sometimes came sexual harassment and forms of discrimination and abuse. Women were usually paid less than men, and they were not treated equally.

The U. S. invasion of Iraq took place in 2003. The first stage of the war ended in May 2003 (just over one month since its start), although American troops remained in the country until 2011.
The Taliban is an Islamic fundamentalist political movement in Afghanistan. The Taliban emerged from the Afghan Civil War and from 1996 to 2001, controlled most of Afghanistan. It was overthrown during the American invasion in 2001.
