The Middle Ages So what comes to mind when we say “Middle Ages?”

Knights!

Castles!

Feudal Warfare!!!!

Chivalry- code of honor

Vikings!

Jousting Tournaments

The Middle Ages were a dangerous time in Europe The strong empires of Rome and Greece that protected trade routes and encouraged science and freedom were gone. Education died out Only the Christian Church kept education alive in monasteries –Hand copied books

Invaders and Raiders make life dangerous Vikings Huns Neighboring Tribes

Invaders and Raiders Genghis Kahn Mongolian warrior A particular problem for the Russians. Mongols conquered Russia and ruled it for 400 years Russia has been behind the rest of Europe ever since

So Who is Where? Angles and Saxons in Britain. –Thus the term “Anglo-Saxon” –Also where we get the term “England” (from “Angle land”) Franks in France (well no duh!) Goths and Visigoths in Italy, Spain and Eastern Europe Russ in Russia (no kidding) Slavs in Eastern Europe A mixture of everybody in Germany

Russ Angles and Saxons Note: The Eastern Roman Empire is Still going strong Slavs

No Strong Central Govt. So how will we be protected? Lack of central government for protection leads to rise of Feudalism

What is Feudalism? Feudalism Feudalism Feudalism: “loosely organized system of government in which local lords governed their own lands but owed military service and other support to a greater lord.”

See Bubba’s Kingdom

Feudalism (political system) So who is in charge? The kings had plenty of land; but he could not control it all –So he gave land to lords in exchange for protection, loyalty and $. Lords then gave their land to knights in exchange for protection, loyalty and $. Knights let serfs (peasants) work the land and he would protect them. Serfs got food and shelter. Thus, each person had rights and responsibilities Higher lords

Manor Life So where do the people live? In Medieval Europe, people lived on manors –self-sufficient communities consisting of a castle, church, village and surrounding farmlands. –Serfs work land and give part of their crops to the local (land) lord, for letting them farm the land.

Problems with Feudalism Possible to have allegiances to more than one person No strong central government –King must ask his lords for knights in time of war –King must ask his lords for money to pay for things –Lords hold most of the power Lords constantly fighting among themselves.

How to Gain / Stay in Power GET More LAND!! More land = more crops = more $ How to Get More Land? Conquer it Medieval times saw constant fighting Marry into it Make Alliances It helps to have friends Marry off your daughter to secure an alliance

OK, but lets get to the stuff you all want to know –Knights in shining armor, Castles, Horses, Warfare, and general mayhem.

See Castles Unit

The Norman Conquest In 1066, England was invaded by Normans (Vikings from modern-day France) The Battle of Hastings –Harold, King of England killed –William of Normandy (William the Conqueror) takes over. –Can YOU win the battle of Hastings?Can YOU win the battle of Hastings?

William of Normandy helped make England what it is today and codified feudalism (gave it the force of law).

French was spoken in the English court for the next 200 years William I creates Domesday Book for purposes of fair tax collection. –Great resource for modern historians to learn about Medieval life) Norman ship William of Normandy

The Magna Carta English King John was a bad king so his nobles forced him to sign it Limited powers of king. Signed in 1215 Example of Rule of Law

Magna Carta No royal official shall take goods from any man without immediate payment. No free man shall be imprisoned except by the lawful judgment of his equals or by the law of the land. In future no official shall place a man on trial without producing credible witnesses. Courts shall be held in a fixed place at a fixed time. The barons shall elect a House of Lords for the creation of laws. The English church shall be free. For a trivial offence, a free man shall be fined only in proportion to the degree of his offence. Due Process of Law
