What is the medieval age?

Answer 1

Medieval comes from the Latin medi(um) aev(um) "the middle age". It refers to the roughly 1000-year period between the Ancient Times (up until the fall of Rome in Western Europe in 476 AD) and the Renaissance or modern era (about the 14th century). Hence "Middle" Ages.

Answer 2

Primarily the study of Europe during its "Dark Age" which effectively began with the fall of Rome and lasted until its revival which is usually considered to be theRenaissance. During this time, the Catholic Church played a large role in state affairs, feudal systems arose, Vikings did their thing, the Black Death caused the death of millions, eventually separate kingdoms began to arise and compete with each other, but overall Europe's role in world affairs was about the same as the America's, 0. None of the negative effects had anywhere near the effects on the two main powers at this time, Muslim Middle East and China, but even they were not as spectacular as they were during the classical era.

It is interesting to note however that the average lifespan was actually significantly higher than during the so-called glory days under Rome. Just goes to show, that history is never as one-sided as the victors make it out to be.

Answer 3

only the most awesome period in history.
