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.

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

NOTES ON NOBLES
The Nobles lifestyle was generally not like how we see it
in the movies
Castles the noble lords lived in were simple structures
made from earth and wood; later on, stone.
The lord or head of a peasant family depended on his
wife and children for help; children were often a
welcome source of farm labor
45
KNIGHTS…
Knights were the soldiers of the middle ages; a boy had
to be of noble birth to become a knight, then pass
through several stages of training
Knights went into battle with full armor, a closed helmet,
and displayed a coat of arms.
The coat of arms was a graphic symbol that identified
the knight and represented his personal
characteristics. (examples, page 107)

HEY HISTORY!
Topic: The Caped Crusader
1) Who is the caped crusader?
2) What do you believe a crusader does? What is his or
her purpose?
3) Why do you believe this person is known as a
crusader?
53
WHAT ARE THE CRUSADES?
As you may recall, during the 900s, Turkish Muslims started to take
over much of Asia Minor
In the late 1000s, Seljuq Turks took control of Palestine – known
among Christians as “the Holy Land”
When the Turks started to move on the Byzantine Empire, the
Emperor called on Pope Urban II in Rome for help
54
WHAT ARE THE CRUSADES?
Eager to regain the holy land, Urban called a meeting of church
leaders and feudal lords in 1095
Urban asked for the lords and leaders to unite as one to win back
the Holy Land
They would “wear the cross of Christ on their right shoulder or back,
and with one voice… cry out: God wills it, God wills it, God wills
it!”
Thus began the Crusades – a series of military expeditions to regain
the Holy Land

ALSO IN THE HIGH MIDDLE AGES…
With the rise of the Middle Ages, manors grew or made basically
everything they needed
After the Crusades, trade began to grow again in Europe; the
Crusades led to the demand for exotic or new goods from Asia
Important business developments began to occur during this time,
most notable the development of a new manufacturing system,
banking system, and the practicing of investing shared wealth
As the economy improved, towns were able to grow larger and richer,
and partly due to a growing middle class of merchants and
master workers
