Actually, two generations, because both his grandfather and his father died before his great-grandfather. A similar thing happened in the next generation, when Louis XV oulived his eldest son and was succeeded by his grandson. Amazingly, between 1643 and 1792 France had only three kings.

Why were medieval abbeys rich?

The monasteries were wealthy because the church was wealthy. The church taxed everybody including the peasants a tithe (this meant they had to give a tenth of their harvest to the church). Also when people died some chose to give their valuables to the church - this made it even more wealthy. Finally people paid indulgences to the church. They believed that in paying indulgences they would skip purgatory (a place of punishment) and go straight to heaven. I hope this goes towards answering your question.


Why did they throw coins at end of wedding in old time England?

It was a symbol of the groom not needing his bride's dowry to take care of her so he threw the coins (specifically to the children) as part of his generosity -- how he felt so honored with his gift from his new father-in-law (his bride) that he must spread it out to the community. Many cultures have done this -- Scotland, Ireland, Germany, even Iran. You can make a nod to this today by tossing those chocolate coins during the reception -- a good option if you wish to skip the garter toss, like more and more people are doing these days, and a great way to involve the kids at your wedding. --- From a wedding coordinator


What factors led to the rise of communism in China and Russia?

Now we skip ahead to Russia: 1900. Russia is being led by its oppressive Czar, Nicholas II. The proletariat (public) dislike this form of government. This leads to the overthrowing of this White Russian aristocratic government. In 1917, Vladimir Lenin takes power.
