 * __The Big Question__**

Considering the buildings that you have studied, write a small composition (20 lines) in which you explain: 1. In what ways society organized in Madrid during the Modern Age? 2. What did the people who built the buildings hope to show with their structures? 3. What role did religion play in 16th and 17th century society? Was it a private and personal matter? Or, was it related to social status? Give your personal opinion, but support it using the buildings and exampled what you have studied to defend your ideas.

During the Modern Age,the society was organised in the Feudal system. This means that society was organised into three groups, nobles, cleargy and peasants. Two of them privilages estates nobles and clargy and the other no-provilaged estate, the peasants. So Madrid during the Modern Age was organised in three estates. Between the privilages and the no-privilage estate were many diferents, like, oly the pesants had to paid taxes and they can't had their own land and in society they didn.t have rights... The Rich people like the nobles and the kings, built important and large buildings to show the society how powerfull they were and to show that they can't had the power. During the 16th and the 17th centy the cleargy had an important place in society. The Pope was more important than the king.
