Yes castles were used as defense against outsiders, each castle had multiple traps and levels so it was very difficult for enemies to overtake a castle
Castles changed because people kept on finding stronger materials and better structure. To keep castles going now they would of had to find a material that couldn't be effected by gunpowder, which is nearly impossible! Also they were some disadvantages about some castles such as the Motte and Bailey castle it had a weakness and the weakness was that it was made out of wood and could burn.So they changed it to a stone keep and this just carries on changing and changing getting better and better. Hope that helps.
was to make money and find better living then they had in Europe,better land to live in.Finanacial reason's make better life.
Medieval castles evolved because the old Motte and Bailey castles where easier to set alight and where not very strong, so they made stone castles to improve defence.
In 1066 Castles where only made of wood and earth ( Motte and Bailey Castle), but around 1558 castles where built of strong stone, with thick inner walls and turrets. (Concentric Castle. Castles started off as weak and not good at defence or attack, but over the years they have been improved for battles and for more people. For example: The Concentric castle took years to make because it had inner walls made of thick stone. Castles changed because when a place expands and changes, castles need to get bigger and better with it. Also, they need to be prepared for enemy attacks.
To hard and costly to make.
Castles went out of fashion because scientist found better and more resistant materials to make other buildings out of.
he built woodern castles He built these castles in England for better defence.

motte and bailey castles were the first castles built by william and later stone castles came around they were first rectangular but then were made circular which was better defence. e.t.c. ;-)
There were not any castles in the roman times as they did not make any
people got better technology and have used that stuff to destroy them & plus weve made better buildings that work better than castles
Concentric castles were better than Motte and Bailey castles because concentric castles were made out of stone and Motte and Bailey castles were made out of wood. Stone's better than wood for these reasons: * Wood catches fire easily * Wood rots within a few years * Wood's lighter making it easier to knock down Even though stone is better than wood in those many ways, wood's cheaper and, as explained above, is lighter. The wood being light means that it's easier to built.
it made life better because people now can communicate better
THEY STARTED TO MAKE TE CASTLES ROUND SO IT WAS HARDER TO KNOCK DOWN BECAUST THEY WOULD START BY KNOCKING DOWN THE CORNERS TO MAKE IT EASIER SO THEY MADE THE CASTLES ROUND
maybe to get better security
draughty and cold
