The Middle Ages for Kids
The Middle Ages in Europe occurred between 500 and 1500 CE. It was the age of feudalism and manors, of lords, ladies, knights, serfs, and peasants. The government of Rome had disappeared. It was replaced by thousands of small, regional feudal governments, where the local lord was in charge. But the real ruler was the Catholic church. Religion dominated everything people did in their daily life. Whether you lived on a manor or in a castle or in one of the growing towns, daily life in the Middle Ages was deeply religious and often violent.
