Latin. It's considered the root of common languages including Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, and French. That's why they all sound so familiar.

C.) between the fall of Rome and the coming of the Renaissance.
Explanation:
We usually divide the medieval era into two periods: High Middle Ages and Late Middle Ages.
- The High Middle Ages extended from the 5th to the 10th centuries. It was the time of consolidation in the Western Europe of feudalism, the predominant socioeconomic system in the medieval era.
- The Late Middle Ages comprehends from the eleventh century to the end of the medieval period in the fifteenth century. This is when feudalism peaked and went into decay. Slowly, it began to undergo transformations that would only be completed in the Modern Age, when it would be replaced, in the political field, by national monarchies and, in the economic, by the mercantilist system.
This period marks the fief as the economic base, the political structure based on the system of vassal and lord, certain social statism, where there was little mobility and a strong hierarchy between classes and the dominance of the Church in the religious scene. In addition, the medieval wars and the Black Death decimated much of the population of the time.
All three are ways of approaching the economic system and how much the government should be involved in that system.
Capitalism involves private ownership of businesses with little to no government interference or regulation. Most countries do not run on laissez-faire capitalism in which there is no gov't regulation. However more run as a blend between capitalism and socialism.
In socialism, the government owns the means of production and sets pricing, wages, quotas, and production. Often managers are government appointed and the workers all receive an equal wage for their work. Cooperation is key to the success of socialism. This is also the step between an overthrow of capitalism to full communism.
In communism, the means of production are owned by the people and the gov't is no longer needed to regulate business and/or wages. It is a complete cooperative state where the workers work for the good of all.
Answer:
The geography of the region helped to shape the government and culture of the Ancient Greeks. Geographical formations including mountains, seas, and islands formed natural barriers between the Greek city-states and forced the Greeks to settle along the coast.
During the 19th century, European countries saw Africa’s richness in natural resources and decided that it would be a great place to conquer and colonize. Each European country raced to the continent and treated it like a huge buffet table; but perhaps forgot to ask Africa“Are you going to eat that?” The theft of the land included our heritage, resources, history, and was possibly the reason for the rest of the worst events listed.
