Dark Ages

the economy was very bad and most communication was lost. There were many hardships and shortages of food. The people had to work at every oppertuninty to make enough money and food to survive. But during the winter, crops did not grow so the people often starved and half of the children died. Because the times were hard, the surviving children also had to work the contribute to the income. At this time in the Dark Ages, many people started believing in folk tales and stories because they were not educated enough to see the impossibility of the stories of dragons and heroes. Many people died due to starvation but others died due to disease and epidemics. Therefore, the church and monasteries were an important aspect in the lives of the people because they gave a sense of hope for the people that God is watching over them. But life as a monk was hard especially with Benedict as the abbot or head of the church. He told the nuns and monks to give up their will by not talking. The monks tried to kill him twice by poisoning him, but failed both times.

Barbarians

they were feared by all for their savage ways of murdering and stealing. They often times traveled on ships and raided the people and stormed through the towns taking things and destroying things that they didn't take. They were the cause of many social and economic changes. Great boats and ships were built by the viking and they were often buried with their ships. Farmers were the core of their economics. They resorted to stealing and violence during the dark ages. Many different groups of barbarians were present but they eventually banned together to make better ships and more successful raids. Their ships were their pride and were very well made, they revolutionized traveling over water. Most other people at the time could not make vessels comparable to those of the vikings and barbarians so that was a major advantage for them. The barbarians and vikings were not led by a king or leader, that is what contributed to their brutal ways.

Foods of the Middle Ages

meals eaten by the commoners lacked in quality and amount compared to the nobles. The royal and the nobles often ate feasts which had wine, meat, bread, soup and vegetables while commoners rarely got meat. Kings and queens sometimes ate with expensive silverware like gold plates. Also, spices that were introduced later were quite expensive and therefore only eaten by the nobles. The lower class were not allowed to poach so their meat intake was minimum.

Clothes of the Middle Ages

commoners and pheasants wore very plain clothes that were often ripped or torn. However, the nobility wore expensive clothes. Most clothes were made of cotton or wool. But some were made of fine silk woven by tailors. The poors' clothes were very dull in color such as gray and brown. Royalty had bright colored silks though.

Commoners of the Middle Ages

the commoners mostly led a hard life that involved working from sun up to sun down. These people were the foundation for the royalty and everyone else though, They are the ones who farmed the land and made things necessary for the people. They lived on the lord's land in a small shack which was generally made from hay. They often raised animals and crops. Because they depended on what they grew, they often starved when the crops didnt grow,

1 the information that 20% of the world population is Muslim didn't surprise me because I knew that there are a significant number of people who are Islamic. 2 I was surprised that China had a high population of Muslims 3 Indonesia has the highest number of Muslims at 181 million 4 I think that Indonesia has the highest population of Muslims because it is a third world country and therefore does not have that much of a diverse religion 5 I think that Islam spread out so much because the Muslims immigrated and therefore spreading their culture and religion.
