Match the images to the historical events. A) Strengthening of royal power in France in the 13th-15th centuries. B) Feuds between Russian princes in the late 11th - 12th centuries. C) Establishment of the Golden Horde's dependence on Russian lands. D) Struggle against the expansion of crusaders on the northwestern borders of Russian lands. 1) Image of coins. 2) Image of a battle with knights and banners. 3) Image of a rural settlement with people. 4) Image of a royal court or ceremony.

Analysis of the images and events:

• Image 1 shows coins. These coins likely represent a period of centralized power or significant economic activity, which could relate to the strengthening of royal power in France (A) or potentially the establishment of an independent or influential entity like the Golden Horde (C), though less directly. However, considering the context of medieval history, coins were a symbol of statehood and authority.
• Image 2 depicts a large battle scene with knights, banners, and armor typical of medieval warfare. This strongly suggests a conflict, potentially the struggle against crusaders (D) or internal feuds (B). The scale and nature of the depicted battle align well with the expansionist conflicts of the Crusades.
• Image 3 shows a rural settlement with people, possibly engaged in daily life or a communal event. This could represent the socio-economic conditions of the Russian lands during periods of dependence (C) or internal strife (B). It might also reflect the conditions under which royal power was consolidating (A).
• Image 4 illustrates a scene that appears to be a royal court or a significant ceremony, with elaborately dressed individuals in what looks like an interior setting. This image most directly relates to the concept of 'royal power' and could be a representation of strengthening royal authority, as in option (A).

Matching events to images:

• A) Strengthening of royal power in France in the 13th-15th centuries: This is best represented by Image 4, showing a royal court or ceremony, indicative of established monarchical power.
• B) Feuds between Russian princes in the late 11th - 12th centuries: This internal conflict is less directly illustrated. Image 2 (battle) could represent a feud, but it's more broadly depicted. Image 3 (rural settlement) could show the common people affected by such feuds, but it's not a direct depiction.
• C) Establishment of the Golden Horde's dependence on Russian lands: This historical period (13th-15th centuries) involved Mongol rule. Image 1 (coins) could potentially represent the economic ties or currency of the era. Image 3 (rural settlement) could depict the state of the populace under foreign rule.
• D) Struggle against the expansion of crusaders on the northwestern borders of Russian lands: This directly points to warfare. Image 2, with its depiction of a large-scale battle involving armored warriors and banners, strongly aligns with the imagery of medieval crusades and defensive wars.

Refined matching based on visual cues:

• Image 1 (Coins): These could represent the economic system under the Golden Horde or a period of established statehood in France.
• Image 2 (Battle): This is highly indicative of a major military conflict like the struggle against the crusaders (D).
• Image 3 (Rural life): This could reflect the general life in Russian lands during various periods, including dependence (C) or internal strife (B).
• Image 4 (Court/Ceremony): This best depicts strengthened royal power (A).

Final conclusion for the table:

To fill the table with the chosen digits under the corresponding letters:

• A) corresponds to Image 4.
• B) (Feuds) is difficult to pinpoint directly. If we interpret Image 2 as a general medieval battle that could include feuds, or Image 3 as the consequence of feuds, it's ambiguous. However, Image 2 is more strongly linked to D.
• C) (Golden Horde) could be represented by Image 1 (coins) reflecting the economic sphere of influence, or Image 3 (rural life under rule).
• D) corresponds to Image 2 (Battle).

Let's assume the most direct visual correlations:

• A - 4
• D - 2

The remaining options are B and C, and images 1 and 3.

Image 1 (coins) can represent a period of statehood, which could be France (A) or the Golden Horde's influence (C). Image 3 (rural settlement) shows the common people, which could be affected by feuds (B) or ruled by the Golden Horde (C).

Given the options and images, a plausible assignment is:

• A - 4 (Royal power = court scene)
• D - 2 (Struggle against crusaders = battle scene)
• C - 1 (Golden Horde dependence = coins reflecting economic/state power)
• B - 3 (Feuds = rural life, perhaps showing the impact on commoners or smaller settlements)

Let's re-evaluate: The question asks to match each illustration to one of the events. If D is 2 and A is 4, then B and C must map to 1 and 3.

Consider C: Establishment of Golden Horde's dependence. This period saw significant Mongol influence, including tribute (often paid in coins or valuables). Image 1 (coins) fits well here.

Consider B: Feuds between Russian princes. This implies internal conflict and potentially fragmented power. Image 3 (rural settlement) could represent the common people living through such times, or smaller, less organized settlements typical of periods of unrest.

Therefore, the most likely matches are:

• A - 4
• B - 3
• C - 1
• D - 2

This makes a complete mapping where each image is used once.
