The correct answer is C) They burned and looted, but also established trade routes and settled in Wester Europe. The vikings settled in Ireland (they founded Dublin), in Great Britain, in Normandy, France and in Iceland. They also helped developed the hanseatic league which in the future would dominate naval trade in northern europe.

The correct answers is: As vassals, they swore loyalty and provided military service. Knights were noblemen of lower rank than a count, duke or prince, and depended economically on them.

The correct answer is: a patchwork quilt of many small, misshapen patches. Feudalism was a system that encouraged political decentralization, because there was no strong central authority, but a myriad of local leaders who ruled over relatively small patches of land. For example, in Feudal France, there was a king, who in title, ruled over the whole territory, but in reality, he only directly ruled over Paris and the sorrounding countryside, while in other regions such as Normandy, local lords ruled without much interference from the king.

the answer is option a.

- a government ruled by the people, or assembly. officials monarchy - a single ruler like a king. over time some city-states, like athens would change governments. what this means is that all the citizens voted on all the laws.
