Contemporary Age

The Contemporary Age is the historical period between the French Revolution (1789) and the present. It is a time characterized by revolutions, that is, quick and big changes. These transformations affected everything: art, population, society, politics, technology and economy.

Medieval Age

The Medieval Age is the historical period that goes from the fall of the Western Roman Empire (476) to the Discovery of America (1492). During this long historical era all knowledge had to be based on what the Catholic Church said. New ideas were not accepted.It was a time of famine, disease and wars between kingdoms. The society was divided into two main groups:- Lords: nobles and religious, with privileges and owners of the lands.- Vassals: the rest of the population, who had to pay taxes to the lords.

Modern Age

The Modern Age is the historical period that runs between 1492 (discovery of America) and 1789 (French Revolution). Unlike the Medieval Age, reason was given much importance. This allowed cultural progress, technical advances, scientific and geographical discoveries.The modern state was born and a new social class was strengthened, the bourgeoisie, which would be vital for next changes.
