Middle Ages Report
What are the Middle Ages? Do you know the answer to that question? Or do you think you know the answer? The Middle Ages were a time of knights, kings, and castles basically your average fairytale. But the Middle Ages were not fun all the time. There was the Black Death, the bounding church and the life as a serf. I bet you don't even know what a serf is. Well I'm going to tell you all about the Middle Ages. After the Roman Empire fell in c. 500 AD, Europe entered a new era of history. This era was called the Middle Ages. After the fall of Rome, the people left behind many useful things. Such as roads, Language (Latin), and a growing religion (Christianity). Sadly though they also left a crumbling economy, and when the economy fell so did trade. Thus started a form of stereo typing... Feudalism. Feudalism is just another word for social classes. The reason I use the word stereotyping is because in the Roman Empire mostly people were treated equally but in the Middle Ages things changed. There became ranks or groups depending on your wealth and power. Kings, Nobles (Lords), Nights, Vassals and Serfs. Only Nobles, Kings and Nights could own fiefs. These fiefs contained a Manor (very big house), small vill
Now that you know the joys and triumphs and the sadness and destruction of the Middle Ages you know the answers to the questions I asked you. This led to the revolts against the church. They attacked Jerusalem for two days killing many Muslims and Jews. The wives of the noble's were called noblewomen. It started in Siena, Italy in May 1348. Knighthood exists in two places simultaneously, in the world and in our "imagination". The nights practiced a thing called chivalry. age (usually filled with serfs), Mill (to grind the wheat and such to make bread and other useful things) and a church (to pray and help the poor (at times)). They had large rooms to hold tons of food for the hungry and such. I hope you teach others what this report has taught you about the Middle Ages so that everyone will know the forgotten facts. We can talk about ideas versus realities, probably the central problem with knighthood and the chivalric ideas. They spent most of there day in prayer but they also did crafts, farm and make medicine.
