Christianity.
The reason is because the Pope sent them North to teach people about Christianity.
Missionaries from the Christian part of Europe traveled to those countries to convert the pagans.
It would be different forms of Christianity. French, Spanish, and Portuguese missionaries would spread Catholicism. British, Dutch, Swedish, Danish, and German missionaries would carry different forms of Protestant faith (such as Anglican, Methodist, Moravian, Lutheran, and Reformed).
Latin Christianity became the branch of Christianity of the west because it became the Christianity of Italy and, through this, spread in the western part of the Roman Empire. It later spread throughout Western Europe. Pagan or Arian Christian Germanics invaded the empire in the west. However, the Visigoths who took over Spain and the Franks converted to Latin Christianity. The kingdom of the Franks covered Gaul and also parts of central Germany which had never been under the Romans. This helped to spread Christianity there. Charlemagne invaded northern Germany and sent missionaries to covert the pagans in that area. Another element that spread of Latin Christianity was the creation of the monastic orders. Monks became missionaries who worked throughout Western Europe. Pope Gelasius I sent missionaries to Ireland in the 490s. Pope Gregory I sent out to convert the Angles and the Saxons in England and sent missionaries there in the 590s. As for the domination of society, Medieval Europe was deeply religious. The church had a dominant presence through its influence on the populace, its links with kings and aristocrats and the pope being seen as the head of Christendom.
It allowed the safety of missionaries who taught that a personal relationship with God was more important. Pagan traditions were incorporated with Christianity. This allows Christianity to spread all over Europe.
The conversion of Clovis.
Missionaries come from all over the world.
There is no significance to missionaries because they didn't exist. The whole of Europe was Catholic and travel outside of Europe didn't happen until the late 1400's so people didn't need missionaries to convert people.___Not all of Europe was Christian. Missionaries were sent out by the Church to convert the remaining areas like pockets in Scandanavia. John of Montecorvino went to China and established a mission in Peking in the early 1300's.
