The correct option is C Both statements are true

The Black Death was a pandemic that consumed nearly one-third of the world’s population. It is said to have devastated populations across Europe, Asia, and North Africa.

The feudal lords slowly lost their relevance, when farmers began revolting against the pre-existing balance of power in society. This slowly dissolved feudalism and made way for capitalism in Europe.
