Renaissance

The period from about 500 to around 1500

is known as the Middle Ages. Many wars

were fought, but the world also became more

interconnected as trade grew and explorers

traveled widely.

What Was Europe Like in the

Middle Ages? During the early Middle Ages, invasion and

war were common. People in Europe had to

find new means of defending themselves.

Feudalism A new kind of government

evolved during the Middle Ages. Kings.and

queens divided their lands among warrior

nobles. In return, nobles promised to fight

for the ruler when asked. This system of rule

by lords who ruled their lands but owed

loyalty and military service to a monarch is

called feudalism (FYOOD ul iz um).

At the top of feudal society stood the king

and the most powerful lords. Next came the

lesser nobles. Most people in feudal society

were peasants who farmed the lord's lands
