Middle Ages Renaissance Reformation,Medieval Europe,BackgroundThe Middle Ages were a dark age for Europe.Near constant invasions and scant resources required that Europeans develop a new system for living.This system included all aspects of life,social,political,and economic.It was called Feudalism,Feudalism,Feudalism was a social,political,and economic system that dominated all aspects of medieval life.The economic portion of feudalism was centered around the lords estates or manor,and is called manorialism.A lords manor would include peasant villages,a church,farm land,a mill,and the lords castle or manor house,Manorialism,Manors were self sufficient;all economic activity occurred on the manor.This meant that little to no trade occurred during this time period.Most of the peasants during the Middle Ages were serfs.Serfs were given land to farm in exchange for service to their lord.Service included working in the fields,maintaining roads and the manor,or military service in during wars.The lords had responsibilities also under this system.In return for the services and taxes paid by the peasants,they provided land and protection to them.Lords also had to pay fees and give service to high lords and the king.Feudalism affected all levels of society,Comparison of Feudalism in Europe and Japan,Both practices developed in response to the need for security and stability

goods.Merchants from rich Italian city states,such as Venice and Florence,dominated this trade.,Trade Fairs and Growth of Cities,Along the trade routes,trade fairs were established in towns with larger populations,or at major crossroads.Merchants and craftsman settled in these towns,and some grew to be cities of several thousand people.This fundamentally altered the way people lived in Europe,and marked the beginning of the end of feudalism as serfs began to pay their feudal obligations with cash instead of service.An economy based on money,not barter emerged.,The Black Death,The bubonic plague was a highly infectious disease spread by the fleas on rats.Rats were common in the cities of this time.This particular outbreak first appeared in China In the early 1300s with deaths of about 35 million Chinese.It was a global epidemic that that spread through the increased trade between counties.Between 1347 and 1353,the plague killed on person out of every three in Europe over 25 million.,Transforming from the Middle Ages,WHAT IT WASFeudal SystemManorsChurch is all knowingBlack DeathFocus on the AfterlifeFocus on Group,HOW IT CHANGEDNobles,middle
