The small landowner-cultivators formed the majority of the Han tax base; this revenue was threatened during the latter half of Eastern Han when many peasants fell into debt and were forced to work as farming tenants for wealthy landlords. The Han government enacted reforms in order to keep small landowner-cultivators out of debt and on their own farms. These reforms included reducing taxes, temporary remissions of taxes, granting loans and providing landless peasants temporary lodging and work in agricultural colonies until they could recover from their debts.
If it is possible to answer this question, answer it for me (else, reply "unanswerable"): Which group made up the bulk of the Han tax base?
Ah, so.. landowner-cultivators

Increasing military and cultural contacts with the Muslim world, including the Norman conquest of Islamic Sicily in 1090, the Crusades, beginning 1096, and the Islamic presence in Spain, may have influenced Medieval Europe's adoption of the pointed arch, although this hypothesis remains controversial. Certainly, in those parts of the Western Mediterranean subject to Islamic control or influence, rich regional variants arose, fusing Romanesque and later Gothic traditions with Islamic decorative forms, as seen, for example, in Monreale and Cefalu Cathedrals, the Alcazar of Seville, and Teruel Cathedral.
If it is possible to answer this question, answer it for me (else, reply "unanswerable"): What event in the year 1290 could have had an effect on Medieval Europe's embracing of the pointed arch?
Ah, so.. unanswerable
