Answer:

Indulgence.

Explanation:

Indulgence refers to the grant of pardon given by the Pope that allows a person to be safe in purgatory and be 'forgiven' or be given a reduced punishment for the punishments due to him/her. In other words, indulgence means the "document" that grants pardon or forgiveness to a person after death, allowing him/her to be safe from being punished or be given a lesser punishment for the sins committed.

In the past, selling indulgences was a common practice and the church was also privy to that act. Moreover, it also allowed the "holy men" to 'sell' such pardons to get money. And this practice led people to believe that committing sins is an allowed 'enjoyment' as long as one can buy indulgences.

How was the Assyrian empire able to take control of the Mesopotamian area
shepuryov [24]
The Assyrians lived in the northern Mesopotamia, near the start of the Tigris and the Euphrates rivers. They rose to the power when the Akkadian Empire fell.
The main reason for the rise of the power of Assyrians were economic. Assyrians needed less artificial irrigation than  their rivals ( Hittites and Babylonians ). Horse-breeding was extensive. Trade was carried out in all directions. Long wars helped build Assyria into a warrior society. All male citizens were obliged to serve in the army. And also, during the period of the Middle Assyrian kingdom ( 1360 - 1074 BC ) their rivals were weakened.
Assyria conquered all of Mesopotamia and expanded their kingdom to the east.   
Answer:
- The rise of Assyrian economy.
- Assyria was a warrior society.
- Hittites and Babylonians both were weakened.
