The correct answer is <em>2). Social ranking</em>.

In the beginning, only the Royalty of tribes in West Africa wore kente cloth, and they did so in special moments or religious activities. Nowadays, the use of kente cloth is more common to the citizens that do not belong to the royal court.

Kente cloth is associated with social status, wealth, and cultural or educational level. Often, kente cloth is used to cover deities of religious significance. In modern-day West Africa, people choose to wear kente cloth depending on the importance of its activities.

For instance, color blue represents love, green represents growth and energy, yellow represents wealth and royalty, White represents goodness, and red represents violence or anger.

The Black Death of 1348 to 1350
Citation: C N Trueman "The Black Death Of 1348 To 1350"
historylearningsite.co.uk. The History Learning Site, 5 Mar 2015. 19 Apr 2018.

In Medieval England, the Black Death was to kill 1.5 million people out of an estimated total of 4 million people between 1348 and 1350. No medical knowledge existed in Medieval England to cope with the disease. After 1350, it was to strike England another six times by the end of the century. Understandably, peasants were terrified at the news that the Black Death might be approaching their village or town.
The Black Death is the name given to a deadly plague (often called bubonic plague, but is more likely to be pneumonic plague) which was rampant during the Fourteenth Century. It was believed to have arrived from Asia in late 1348 and caused more than one epidemic in that century – though its impact on English society from 1348 to 1350 was terrible. No amount of medical knowledge could help England when the plague struck. It was also to have a major impact on England’s social structure which lead to the Peasants Revolt of 1381.
