Guild
This group worked the land and received protection from the lord.
Serfs
Three-field rotation increased this important resource.
Food production
This institution was very important because most Europeans practiced this religion.
Christianity/the Church
A benefit of the clearer writing style popularized during Charlemagne's time was that books could do this.

Fairs
In the social hierarchy, this group fought and protected the lord's land.

One claim students should be able to support is that Charlemagne brought this to western Europe.

A system built on promises and responsibilities between people would most closely match this idea.
Loyalty
More food production could help a medieval population do this.
Grow/Increase
A student sees a handwritten medieval book and is asked who helped preserve books like it. The best answer is this group.
Monks
Give one type of evidence that could support the claim that Charlemagne brought stability to western Europe.
His leadership/strong government, support of Christianity, or support for learning
