No central law or government. No protection, Infrastructure decays, cities not safe. Church dogma and doctrine keep lay people illiterate. Trade stops. People move from cities to the country. Germanic Kingdoms pop up with a government of feudalism 2- Why was Constantinople known as the “New Rome.” Roads spread through the empire. Justinian Code provided unified law. Strong central government and a strong military. Great buildings and public works. 3- Summarize the ways in which the Byzantine Empire flourished under Justinian. He was an autocrat. He rebuilt the city. Created the Hagia Sophia. Justinian’s code, military conquest, wealth. Education and art.

Putting down the Nika Riots at the Hippodrome (blue Greens) outlawing gambling, prostitution, massive rebuilding projects, Increasing military and gaining back Western territory, Increasing taxes all on his own decision. 6 -Explain how feudalism shaped medieval society. after cities collapsed people went to the countryside to seek protection. Germanic Kingdoms sprang up. Mutually loyalty and obligation traded land for service, military, crafts, food. Mixed loyalties, much warfare 7 -Analyze how the economic system of the manor worked and how it affected peasants and nobles. A manor was granted to Nobel, lords (Vassals) in return for loyalty and to provide Knights. The manor was a self sufficient economy. All goods and services were created at the manor or on the land (Fief) of the manor. In return, each offered loyalty and knights in support of their lord or the person granting the Fief. Peasants gave food in return for shelter and protection Peasants paid taxes and 10% to the church. Peasants were tied to the land for life 8 - Why under Feudalism was their much fighting and confusion Mixed loyalties among lords and vassals lesser lords. Battles for land 9 -Explain how the Church shaped medieval life. The church was the center of Medieval Life. A priest or bishop was needed for sacraments from birth to death: baptism, Eucharist, marriage, sickness, penance, and last rites for death. Cathedrals would be built to create economic tourism, Relics would bring pilgrims, and the main pilgrimage would be to Jerusalem which would lead to the Crusades. 10 - Understand monastic life and the influence of medieval monks and nuns. Daily prayer, working in the fields, wine and bear, crops. Manuscripts: the copying of books and the bible. Flailing self-mutilation, Gregorian Chants (music) Monasteries became profitable. 10 percent of the population became monks or Nuns. Modeled poverty piety and humility. 11-Analyze how the power of the Church grew during the Middle Ages. Papal Supremacy made the pope and the church above any secular leaders. They controlled vast amounts of land. They had their own soldiers. Since only church members were educated they were needed and used in kings and nobles, lord’s governments. Cannon law provided the church with separate law all must follow. The threat of excommunication was the worst punishment of all.

Jews migrated to Eastern Europe and would face anti-Semitism there. 13 -Show the secular and church social and political hierarchy (see pyramid chart) 14-In what ways did the Church contribute to a lack of knowledge during the Dark Ages Church dogma and doctrine limited literacy by having mass in Latin a language people did not understand. People had to follow cannon law, going against church teachings was to be a heretic, which was punishable by excommunication, exile and death. Example Galileo and Giovani Bruno 15. What was the Great Schism? The official split between the Roman Catholic and the Eastern Orthodox Churches The Western Pope and Eastern Patriarch each excommunicated each other 16-Analyze how Christianity in the Byzantine Empire differed from Christianity in the West.

Mosaics gleaming in gold radiated that essence. Jesus usually portrayed less suffering than the West. 19-Be able to compare and contrast Church architecture between the Western and Eastern Empire By 1100 Hundreds of massive Gothic Cathedrals sprang up in Western Europe. Heavily decorated and carved on the outside. Tall pointing spires reached toward heaven. With High vaulted ceilings and stained glass. The insides were not painted. Light filtered through magnificent stain glass windows that created another worldly experience Byzantine architecture featured the Dome the Hagia Sophia is the perfect example. Plain on the outside, but rich mosaics, paintings and carvings made the inside beautiful. Light filtered from the dome windows creating an other worldly experience 20.
