Use this picture for a question im going to ask, but theres more parts, this part 1

How do you describe a community defined by division and difference? You consider how agriculture, authority, and climate shaped Europe from 1200 to 1450 CE. Continuity and change, c. 1200-1450 If you went back to the year 12230 and aeked someone \"Where's Europe?" they would have been very confused by the question. The place we now call Europe was barely an idea at that time, but between 1200 and 1450, it was slowly becoming a reality. Europe, including many parts of the Mediterranean, would be defined by Catholicism, a widespread agricultural (manorial) and social system (feudaliem), and political fragmentation. These help us understand what made European states function in unique ways before 1450. From the tenth through the fourteenth centuries European communities enjoyed a period of remarkable growth. Across the two regions populations rose rapidly, commerce increased in scale and complexity, arts and culture flounshed, and cities multiplied and grew. In many places, populations reached levels not seen again until the eighteenth century. This Was an age of colonization and expansion, and of engagement with long-distance exchange across Afro-Eurasia. Such a general upturn wee not unique to Europe and the Mediterranean, and was driven in part by increased access to trade, ideas, and people from across Afro-Eurasia
