In the 1300s, changes in warfare, such as the increased use of longbows and gunpowder, transformed military strategies and the social structure of Europe. The rise of infantry and the decline of knightly cavalry diminished the feudal system, as common soldiers gained prominence. This shift prompted the emergence of centralized monarchies and the need for more organized, professional armies, ultimately leading to changes in governance and societal dynamics across the continent. As warfare evolved, it also spurred technological advancements and the development of new political alliances.

What factors led to the breakdown of feudalism and the growth of towns?

There were a number of reasons for the gradual decline of feudalism. Among them were the fact that Europe began to experience a period of stability. This upset the feudal hierarchy: there was no longer a need for a large number of knights to protect their lord, and gradually, the control the lord had over these men weakened. Another factor that contributed to the decline of feudalism was the bubonic plague-- the Black Death, which killed so many people during the mid to late 1300s that workers were in short supply, and the nobles no longer had enough serfs to rely on. In fact, some laborers were able to hire themselves out and negotiate a salary, rather than being in a position where the noble forced them to work. Further, there was an expansion of exploration and trade in the world, leading to the rise of a merchant class. More merchants meant more goods to be sold, and cities and towns were established, as centers of commerce. Trade, especially trade with other countries, required the use of money, rather than just bartering out goods on a small, local scale as had been done during the height of feudalism. Even some serfs began to produce goods they could sell, and they were eventually able to buy their own land (and their freedom). Other serfs revolted, demanding better treatment; some left rural areas to move closer to centers of trade and commerce. These changes further eroded the total control the nobles once had, and ultimately led to the end of the feudal system.

How was warfare in America different from warfare in Europe?

well see warfare in the early 1300s was different because of the types of weapons used and the different types of techniques. The European settlers used pitch forks and rocks to fight away their enemies and used the printing press as a source to all of the other enemies war plans. Today we just bomb everything and erbody we dont like! but do to unfortunate and unplanned attacks sometimes it backfires but more then less our plans are thought out very well and normally works. But that is how America warfare differs from European warfare in the 1300s
