o a the start of the conflict between the taira and the minamoto families
o b the reward of tax exemptions by the emperor
o c the introduction of crop rotation and terrace farming
o d the establishment of a military government based in kamakura

Explanation:

Pregunta 1:

In Japan, feudalism developed mainly due to internal power - struggles and social changes. In Europe, the threat of outside invaders like the Vikings, Magyars, and Muslims contributed to the rise of feudalism as local lords provided protection. Option b is incorrect as there was an exchange of loyalty for protection in Japan (samurai - daimyo relationship). Option c is wrong because in Europe there was no real unity among feudal estates despite theoretical claims, and in Japan there was a loose imperial structure. Option d is false as there was conflict among daimyos in Japan.

Pregunta 2:

Tax exemptions for land development in the 8th - century Japan led to large land - owning estates that were not contributing to the imperial treasury, weakening the centralized power of the emperor. A tax increase would have potentially strengthened the emperor's power. The abolition of serfdom was not a factor in 8th - century Japan's decline of imperial power. The appointment of a powerful shogun happened later and was a result of the decline of imperial power rather than a cause in the 8th century.

Pregunta 3:

The establishment of a military government (bakufu) based in Kamakura in 1192 is generally recognized as the beginning of Japan's feudal period. The conflict between the Taira and Minamoto families preceded the establishment of the feudal system proper. Tax exemptions by the emperor did not mark the start of feudalism. The introduction of crop rotation and terrace farming was an agricultural development, not the start of the feudal period.

Answer:

Pregunta 1: A. The initial source of instability was internal to Japan and outside invaders in Europe
Pregunta 2: B. Tax exemptions for land development
Pregunta 3: D. The establishment of a military government based in Kamakura
