∙ 12y agoAfter the fall of Rome, there was no central government governing the formerly united Roman Territories, especially Spain, Gual (France) and England and Italy. The country was plummetted into chaos. Simply put, immagine if every government agency, police, schools, trade, military, government, in the United States were all of a sudden gone, there were no laws, what would happen? The Poor, would fall victim to the wealthy who could pay for mercenaries to defend themselves, eventually the poor would allign themselves with wealthy landowners in return for protection from other people, this is known as feudalism.
OUt of the wealthiest families, the strongest in each of the territories began to rule over the less powerful lords, giving us the new monarchs, who also fought each other for the best land. Italy remained un united, cut into small rgions and city-states under the protection of powerful cities like Venice, Naples and Florence.
During the chaos, communication was drisrupted, local dialects began and the unified language gave way to English, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese weakening learning. Frthermore, the wars pulled much of the nation's resources to battles, and less people were avalible to study and learn or keep up the learning that had taken place during the ancient periods of time. A good way to remember this is if you are being attacked you need soldiers, then you need farmers to make food for the soldiers, then you need miners for metals, horse keepers for horses, blacksmiths, and finally if u still have leftover people you can have education. Europeans were never able to fund institutions of education because of the demand for warfare.
