Explanation:

Analyze Question 1

The Hundred Years' War (1337–1453) led to heavy financial burdens resulting in increased taxes, massive casualties (high number of deaths), and a strong rise in national identity and patriotism (nationalism) in both England and France. Therefore, all listed choices are correct.

Analyze Question 2

Johannes Gutenberg developed the movable-type printing press in Mainz, Germany, around 1440. The first major book printed using this technology was the Gutenberg Bible (also known as the 42-Line Bible), completed around 1455.

Analyze Question 3

The Black Death (plague) decimated Europe's population, which drastically reduced the labor force. This labor shortage caused the price of labor (wages) to increase, not decrease. Consequently, an "increase in the number of workers" is false, making it the correct answer for what was not a consequence.
