- The Middle Ages & Feudalism: The Middle Ages (476 CE–1400s) followed the fall of Rome, leading to chaos and decentralization. Small Germanic kingdoms, like the Franks, emerged. Feudalism structured society, with land exchanged for military service, creating a hierarchy from kings to serfs.
- Charlemagne & the Church: Charlemagne expanded Frankish rule, spread Catholicism, and was crowned Holy Roman Emperor in 800 CE, leading to power struggles between the monarchy and the Church. The Church’s hierarchy controlled religious and social life, with excommunication as a powerful tool.
- The Magna Carta & Governance: King John of England’s oppressive rule led to the Magna Carta in 1215, the first document limiting the king’s power, establishing the foundation for British Parliament and constitutional governance.
