ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS • Based on the map and text readings, discuss in your new groups the following questions: • In what way did the arrival of the “barbarians” lay the foundations for what would later become future modern nation states of Europe? • In what way(s) did the Church justify the power and authority of early medieval rulers? Why do you think the Church took these actions? • What is meant by the terms “Carolingian Renaissance”?
There are eight pawns situated on each side of the board. They are the least powerful piece on the chess board, but have the potential to become equal to the most powerful The rook, shaped like a castle, is one of the more powerful pieces on the board. The rooks, grouped with the queen, are often thought of as the "major pieces". Rooks are worth a bishop or a knight plus two pawns. The knight is the only piece on the board that may jump over other pieces. This gives it a degree of flexibility that makes it a powerful piece. The bishop may move any number of squares in a diagonal direction until it is prevented from continuing by another piece. The queen is, without doubt, the most powerful piece on the chessboard. She can move as many squares as she desires and in any direction (barring any obstructions). Though not the most powerful piece on the board, the king is the most vital, for once he is lost the game is lost http://www.conservativebookstore.com/chess/kings.htm
