Peasants’ Revolt, also called Wat Tyler’s Rebellion, (1381), first great popular rebellion in English history. Its immediate cause was the imposition of the unpopular poll tax of 1381, which brought to a head the economic discontent that had been growing since the middle of the century. The rebellion drew support from several sources and included well-to-do artisans and villeins as well as the destitute. Probably the main grievance of the agricultural labourers and urban working classes was the Statute of Labourers (1351), which attempted to fix maximum wages during the labour shortage following the Black Death.
The uprising was centred in the southeastern counties and East Anglia, with minor disturbances in other areas. It began in Essex in May, taking the government of the young king Richard II by surprise. In June rebels from Essex and Kent marched toward London. On the 13th the Kentish men, under Wat Tyler (q.v.), entered London, where they massacred some Flemish merchants and razed the palace of the king’s uncle, the unpopular John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster. The government was compelled to negotiate. On the 14th Richard met the men of Essex outside London at Mile End, where he promised cheap land, free trade, and the abolition of serfdom and forced labour. During the king’s absence, the Kentish rebels in the city forced the surrender of the Tower of London; the chancellor, Archbishop Simon of Sudbury, and the treasurer, Sir Robert Hales, both of whom were held responsible for the poll tax, were beheaded.
It should be both but in equal and balance way that the resources can replenish and used in the future generations. Protecting the resources enables the source to replenish and regain what are lost. Using and extracting enables the society to work and survive. So both are needed to be balanced to work efficiently and effectively.
The imaginary line of secrecy and mistrust is called the iron curtain.

There are a couple of reasons for why the empire didn't last. One of those reasons is that the empire was too great (big). Because the empire was too huge, it was divided into different parts after Alexander's death. He also didn't have an heir to the throne, so when he died, officials fought for power and to become king, which also contributed to the fall of the empire as well.
