Answer 2

Answer:

C. New forms of taxation to raise money.

Explanation:

During this period, new ways of taxation were developed. This responded to a change in society that took place during these centuries.

These changes led to new theories about the use of resources in society, eventually leading to a better implementation of taxation, and with it, stronger central governments.
