Monastic orders set up schools and libraries all over Europe. Students would come live in cities where many learned teachers were living because there was not very many schools for people who wanted to attend. They gathered to hear hese teachers. In time, these gatherings grew into universities. Church scholars also aided education by studying the writings of ancient Greek and Roman thinkers. In the mid 1200's the Christian scholar Thomas Aquinas studied the works of the greek philosopher Arisotle.He used his knowledge to argue that Church and governmentcould get along as long as time, such ideas led to new ways of thinking about government.

How did the medieval church unify Europe?

The Church was an organization that existed in practically all of medieval Europe. It had its own rules, which it could impose on the governments of countries, and though it did not do this often, it did have the effect of producing a certain level of uniformity in how kings and other leaders dealt with their people. The Church provided much of the education of the Middle Ages, and what it did not provide usually conformed to the Church's practices. In Western Europe, Latin was the language of this education, and so there was a single language nearly all well educated people used over Western Europe. In Eastern Europe, Greek was used, but the Eastern Churches tended to use the vernacular more. Pilgrimage and crusades sometimes threw people of different countries together.
