Medieval Europe
During the time of Medieval Europe history portrayed it as being a decade or decay and diseases. When that period is introduced to me it seems as if it had nothing to offer history wise, and it also seem uninteresting and lacking. I feel that the period was a time of intellectual and political progress, I plan to explain how the role of the church and how that pertains to the government, also show how the church rose to power, and lastly I will explain the system that was developed for the treatment of other religions during that time as well.
