I am the pope, the richest and the most powerful person on the Roman Catholic Church.  The beliefs of the people were if they didn’t pray to zesus they would get punished. We have a special activity name indulgences, where the peasants pay and get their sins forgiven.  We also had a lot of power over the people. We controlled them by fear because they thought they would go to hell if they don’t obey our commands. Also, they had to pay one tenth of their money even though we are the richest because they thought they would get punished if they didn’t. So to explain it easier, the peasants were scared of us because we could punish them by the name of the zesus
