Question

A.
The systems in both places had similar political structures.
B.
The systems in both places valued people who produced food.
C.
Warfare to gain land was discouraged in both systems.
D.
Trade was a necessary part of the economy in both systems.

Answer 1

Based on the information provided and the context of feudalism in Japan and Europe, the most appropriate conclusion would be:

**B. The systems in both places valued people who produced food.**

This choice reflects the importance of agricultural production in both feudal systems, where land ownership and the labor of peasants (or serfs, in the European context) were fundamental to the economy and social hierarchy. The other options either do not accurately represent the historical context or lack sufficient evidence in a comparison of the two systems.
