After the Medieval Period, the Renaissance began. Towards the end of the Medieval Period, the plague (or black death), struck Europe killing 1/3 of the population. After the plague struck, and so many people died, many people began wondering what life was all about. Thus, the Renaissance (a rebirth of art and literature), began.
I belive this is true.
true or false?
The Byzantine Empire was the eastern half of the Roman Empire during Late Antiquity through the Middle Ages. The Roman Empire was divided in 285 CE; it wasn't until 1453 that the empire fell to the Turks - over one thousand years after the Western Roman Empire, based in Rome, fell. Its capital was Constantinople, founded by and named after Constantine I, which is modern-day Istanbul.
The eastern half of the Roman Empire became the Byzantine Empire.

The Byzantine Empire, also known as the Eastern Roman Empire
Historians have coined the term Byzantine empire to indicate the eastern part of the Roman Empire after the fall of the western part of this empire. The eastern part continued to exist for nearly 1,000 years. The people in question did not use this term. They called it Roman Empire.

Western Europe (Eastern part of the Roman Empire did not collapse and became known as the Byzantine Empire) went into a period of chaos, then arose in the feudal society (Middle Ages)
The Western Roman Empire was the western half of the Roman Empire, from its division by Diocletian in 285; the other half of the Roman Empire was the Eastern Roman Empire, today widely known as the Byzantine Empire.The Western Empire existed intermittently in several periods between the 3rd century and 5th century, after Diocletian's Tetrarchy and the reunifications associated with Constantine the Great and Julian the Apostate (324-363). Theodosius I (379-395) was the last Roman Emperor who ruled over a unified Roman empire. After his death in 395, the Roman Empire was permanently divided. The Western Roman Empire ended officially with the abdication of Romulus Augustus under pressure of Odoacer on 4 September 476, and unofficially with the death of Julius Nepos in 480.Despite a brief period of reconquest by its counterpart, the Eastern Roman Empire, the Western Roman Empire would not rise again. As the Western Roman Empire fell, a new era began in Western European history: the Middle Ages.
It was known, while it existed, simply as the Roman Empire. In order to distinguish it from the Western Roman Empire, historians have taken to calling it the Byzantine Empire. This name refers to Byzantium, which was the original name of the city of Constantinople, the Eastern Roman Empire's capitol.

The western part of the Roman Empire was not known for anything in particular. It was just the western part of the Roman Empire. Eastern Roman Empire and Western Roman Empire are terms which have been coined by historians. The Romans did not use them. They just said east and west. These two units were created by the emperor Diocletian in 286 as administrative units of a sole empire which he stressed were indivisible. The western part of the Roman Empire had Rome and Italy, which was the most urbanised area of the empire and the hub of trade in the empire; the mines of Britain and Spain, and the Fertile lands of Tunisia and Sicily, which were the most important suppliers of grain after Egypt (which exported 50% of the grain the city of Rome imported). Spain was the biggest producer of olive oil.
No. The Middle Ages is the time between the fall of the West Roman Empire and the Modern Age. Alexander's Empire was long gone when the Roman Empire was founded.
Charlemagne united most of Western and Central Europe under the Carolingian Empire, which was the first new empire in Europe after the collapse of the Western Roman Empire.
