The Early Middle Ages

What were the Middle Ages?

Western Europe in Decline Invaders sweeping across the Roman region Trade was slow Towns were empty Education no longer truly existed 500 to 1500: Known as the Middle Ages also called the Dark Ages There is little known about this period because there is little written history of the time- due to illiteracy! Medieval: Latin meaning, “middle age”

Rise of Germanic Kingdoms Franks – Germanic tribe that conquered present-day France and neighboring lands in the 400s 486: King Clovis: conquered former Roman province of Gaul Converts to Christianity: gains allies Some cities existed near rivers and where trade routes crossed paths. No written laws existed; communities were governed by unwritten customs. The kingdoms were ruled by elected kings, whose role was to lead in war. Muslim empire threatens Europe Islam began in Arabia in 600s (Muslims) Muslim army comes into France Charles Martel rallies Frankish warriors He was known as “The Hammer.” He led the Franks in the Battle of Tours. Battle of Tours 732: Christian warriors triumph He served as Mayor of the Palace.

Battle of Tours 732

Brought Christendom, but also angered the eastern Roman emperor in Constantinople (deepened split). This event deepened the split between eastern and western Christians. This event revived the idea of a united Christian empire which affected politics in Europe for years.
