The difference was: manual weapons vs. mechanized weapons, Negligible wound care vs top rate health care in the 20th and 21st centuries, Communication that took weeks or months vs. communication that is instantaneous and global transport that took months to go a short distance vs. transportation that can go around the world in hours. Another difference is they often fought "a gentlemen's war" according to a code of honor and methods. Today we go all the way to win the battle using any method we can to achieve victory. The gentleman's war idea went out with the US Civil War when they learn mechanized war weapons could do so much more.

How did the homes change from the Middle Ages to the eighteenth century?
Perhaps the biggest change was the introduction of chimneys, which were invented during the middle ages, but did not become a standard feature until later. During the middle ages, people with dirt floors built fires on the floors, and people with stone or wood used braziers. The smoke went through a hole in the roof or just under the peaks of the roof. Another change was the common use of glass, though poor people in the eighteenth century might have used oiled paper instead. And another was the common use of wooden doors and shutters in the poor houses of the eighteenth century, where people of the middle ages did not necessarily have wooden doors.

Culturally - in the arts and architecture - the eighteenth century was the period of first the Baroque and later, the Rococo style. Both styles were heavily influenced by the Catholic Church and its Contra-Reformist policies. No specific other culture was 'idealized' there either.
