HEY HISTORY!TOPIC: WESTERN ROME VS. EASTERN ROME
Prior to 476 AD, Western Rome endured a string of military losses against outside forces.
It was also crumbling from within thanks to a severe financial crisis. Constant wars and overspending had significantly lightened imperial coffers, and oppressive taxation and inflation had widened the gap between rich and poor.
Additionally, with such a vast territory to govern, the empire faced an administrative and logistical nightmare that ineffective and incompetent leadership could not solve
In the year 476 AD, eventually the last emperor of Western Rome was defeated and killed by invading Germans
Eastern Rome was having a bit more success as a rising civilization.
Write your own prediction for what you believe was happening in Eastern Rome during the same time period.

HEY HISTORY!
Topic: The Rise of Western Rome…
As You may recall, Western Rome encountered several issues before the eventual fall of the last emperor in 476 AD
What do you think would have helped Rome survive? How would you have fixed Western Rome’s problems?
Share and discuss with your table members… You may add anything that you hear and like in your HH Records.
31
THE MIDDLE AGES
For hundreds of years, after the fall of Western Rome, Europe was in constant change and disorder.
Waves of barbarian invasions brought many new customs and lifestyles to western Europe
Gradually, Europeans began to restore order
This period, between 400s and 1500s AD, became known as the Middle Ages (Between classical age and beginnings of modern world), or Medieval Period of European development
One Germanic tribe that had a lasting impact on the European world was the Franks
32
THE FRANKISH RULERS…
During this age of transition, from about 200s to 800s AD, several Frankish kings ruled over the Frankish tribes and shaped the new landscape of post-Roman Europe.
Clovis
Pepin II
Charles Martel
Pepin III
Charlemagne
Each group is responsible for creating a miniature biographic profile for one of these rulers. We will share after!
33
CHARLEMAGNE!
Charlemagne held the Frankish throne from 768 to 814 AD
He was instrumental in the spreading of church teachings and Christian beliefs
He was able to unite most of Western Europe for first time in 400 years (Charlemagne successor to Roman Emperors)
34
CHARLEMAGNE!
Government: His empire was divided into regions, each led by a count acting on his behalf.
Education: he was not formally educated, but he did place a great value on education, starting schools for his own children and the children of young nobles
Curriculum was based on learning a number of different subjects (Roman Model)
He also commissioned the writing of a new, updated bible, which was distributed and used throughout his empire
35
FEUDALISM AND THE MANORIAL SYSTEM
Charlemagne’s empire did not survive long after his death. Weak leadership and invasions by Germanic tribes, such as the Vikings, once again led to the split.
Within 100 years of Charlemagne’s death, the large scale government he had established was mostly gone throughout Europe.
Most Europeans were governed by small, local, independent leaders mostly called local lords. This political organization was part of a system known as feudalism.
Feudalism provided a political and social structure; likewise, the economy of much of Europe was based on a self-sustaining system known as the manorial system.
36
FEUDALISM AND THE MANORIAL SYSTEM: BROCHURE/INFORMATIONAL
Imagine you and your group have been tasked with creating a brochure explaining Feudalism and the Manorial System to travelers coming through medieval Europe
Brochure should include the following:
definitions for terms such as vassal, fief, and lord
information about the roles different individuals play in the system
information about feudal justice and warfare
a brief note about chivalry
graphic representations to help explain concepts
