00:00:14
commenced in the year 476 with the fall of the Roman Empire and finished in 1492
00:00:25
with the discovery of America. In medieval times the great territory
00:00:34
dominated by the Roman Empire in Europe broke in many different ways and in many
00:00:43
of them a monarchy was born which is the form of government when a king or queen
00:00:49
queen is in power.
00:00:53
Royalty had absolute power and received their authority because of the feudal system.
00:00:57
This system was based on a pyramidal structure.
00:01:03
Royals were the most powerful of all, at the very top.
00:01:09
Noblemen were just under, formed by counts, dukes, barons and other gentlemen and ladies
00:01:14
that controlled territories.
00:01:19
These were the vassals, who worked and lived in the lands dominated by the noblemen and
00:01:23
gave part of their work in exchange for protection and help.
00:01:29
When they were attacked by enemies, vassals would run to the noble's castle.
00:01:34
Vassals were farmers, shepherds, craftsmen and soldiers who were considered free men.
00:01:43
In the lower part of the pyramid, the poor and slaves were found, who were often war
00:01:51
prisoners and would do the toughest jobs in exchange for nothing.
00:01:56
Christianity was the religion that dominated Europe during the medieval ages, and its power
00:02:02
was tremendous.
00:02:07
Only the Pope in Rome was on top of the kings.
00:02:08
The Pope acted like another king.
00:02:13
He controlled territories, formed alliances, and declared war.
00:02:15
The most important wars were the Crusades, where European knights and their troops tried
00:02:20
to dominate the sacred land, dominated by Muslims.
00:02:25
Islam was the other great religion during this time, and confrontation between Muslims
00:02:32
and Christians was constant.
00:02:38
Although medieval times are referred to as dark times, in reality it was very different.
00:02:43
In monasteries, monks conserved and developed olden times' knowledge, and the first universities
00:02:51
in Europe were established during this period in history.
00:02:57
The truth is that medieval ages are a fascinating era in history, don't you think?
