HW#4

1. Canon Law was basically the law of the Church during the medieval times. People would get punished if they violate the Canon Laws. Some punishments were excommunication and interdict.

2. If they didn't follow the cannon law, they would be denied salvation. If they still disobeyed the laws, sacraments and religions will be banned to perform in the rule breaker's land. It's pretty much like in modern times, where you break a rule, you get punished for it. For example, if you keep talking in class, the teacher might call your house as a punishment which will result in you getting grounded which is never a good thing.
