Your answer would be A). the epic poem Beowulf was written.

According to your question, the event happened first in history was the epic poem Beowulf was written.

The epic poem Beowulf:

The Beowulf, a poem, was written around 975-1025 AD. It is known for being one of the world's oldest epic poem to survive, also being written in the English Language.

Explanation:

The reason why the epic poem Beowulf was written would be your answer because based on all of the answer choices in the question, the Beowulf would be the oldest things among all of the answer choices. It is one of the world's oldest surviving poems that was written in the English Language, that's how old it is. There is many replicas of the poem, but the real one was made a long time ago.

Why the other answer choices are incorrect:

Answer choice B). the population of Europe peaked is INCORRECT because:

The population in Europe peaked at around the 1600s, meaning that the population started to grow tremendously in the 1600s. This event happened hundreds of years after the Beowulf poem was written. So this is why this answer choice will be eliminated.

Answer choice C). the Hanseatic league formed is INCORRECT because:

The Hanseatic league was an organization that was formed in 1358, that was about 200-300 years after the Beowulf poem was written. This organization was known for protecting trades for places like North Germany, and other merchant communities.

Answer choice D). The Canterbury Tales was written is INCORRECT because:

The Canterbury Tales were written between 1387 and 1400, which a couple hundred years after the Beowulf poem was written.

When you see the trend, all of the other answer choices occurred AFTER the writing of the Beowulf poem, and there is a couple hundred year difference between the other answer choices and the Beowulf poem.
