When Rome fell in 410 AD it left a vacuum and that vacuum was soon filled with raids by barbarian tribes and chaos. The world was no longer stable and any services that Rome provided were gone. ( just imagine what it would be like if everything quit working today). Soon the chaos was replaced by people who were strong or had built an army in local areas. They took control and a feudal system was established. If you took over the land, built a castle, and had a army of thugs (this is what knights started out as) then you controlled the population and they became serfs to work your land, grow your crops, feed your animals, cook your food, and fight your wars. No education was offered so people couldn't read and write. When Charlemagne became the head of the Holy Roman Empire he added the Church to the crown and made it part of the government .As soon as that was done everyone, including the king, now needed the Church to be the middle man between man and God. The Church taught that man was born in sin and to work their entire life to go to heaven. Taxes were added by the state and the church ( even a death tax) and people lived in a world of superstition, darkness, and death from wars and disease. Plus it just wasn't really that cool.

What else can I help you with?
Which time period would you preferred to have lived in the Renaissance or the middle ages explain your reasons why?
Personally, I would have preferred to have lived during the Middle Ages. One reason is that people in the Renaissance looked down on those of the Middle Ages as barbarians, but the people of the Renaissance were more superstitious and less rational. They pursued witch hunts and suppressed science in ways that were not done in the Middle Ages. Unfortunately, we tend to buy the propaganda of the Renaissance, partly because they were the only ones who could make the comparison - the people of the Middle Ages did not know what was coming. There was a lot of activity in the Middle Ages in engineering, science, philosophy, education, and mathematics that we little of today. The people of the Renaissance tried to work in these fields, but took a less practical and more cosmological point of view, resulting in ecclesiastical suppression. The food and medicine in the High Middle Ages and Late Middle Ages were no worse that that of the Renaissance. The people of the Middle Ages believed that cleanliness was next to godliness, so they were clean. They also believed that bad air, with bad smells, could carry diseases. The people of the Renaissance covered their bad smells with perfume and called the Middle Ages stinky. The people of the Middle Ages believed in their religion and believed a person was no better than his word. The Renaissance produced Macchiavelli and people who thought he was just dandy. One thing the Renaissance had was a greater proportion of houses that had fireplaces and chimneys.
What are bad things about Knight during middle ages?
it was bad to be a knight because you could die.
Why was the government bad in the middle ages?
The question assumes the government was bad in the Middle Ages, and this was not always true. King Louis IX of France is said to have sat under a tree outside Paris, on regular intervals, to hear whatever anyone who wished to speak with him might have to say. A serf could approach the king and express his concerns. I would not have called that bad government. When the government was bad, it was for the same reasons governments are bad today, because they are run by bad people.

The new age of thinking after the Middle Ages' magic and mysticism?
I know most people would answer, claiming that the Renaissance was rational and the Middle Ages dedicated to superstition. My own view, after studying this for a while, is that the Middle Ages were considerably less superstitious than the Renaissance. The bad witch hunts happened after the Middle Ages ended, as did Church attempts to suppress science. The Renaissance was really no more prolific in production of new inventions or science than the Middle Ages. The Renaissance also saw a decline in the rights of women and lower classes. I have included a link below to an article on witch hunts, which illustrates the point pretty well, I think.
How middle age aqueducts worked?
The aqueducts that were built by the Romans in various areas were soon broken down and were unable to be used in the middle ages. One of the primary problems in the middle ages was the water was bad and people suffered from water born diseases. So, to answer your question they didn't work and the people didn't know how to repair them or get them to work.
