  3. 7.6.1 Students study the geography of the Europe and the Eurasian land mass, including its location, topography, waterways, vegetation, and climate and their relationship to ways of life in Medieval Europe. • Europe is a “peninsula of peninsula’s” • Mountains: The Alps, The Pyrenees • many countries; attached to Asia (Eurasia) • Northern European Plain • Rivers: Danube, Rhine • Franks take over after W. Roman Empire falls • Charles Martel (the Hammer), Pepin the Short, Charlemagne (Charles the Great) • Charlemagne wants Christian empire in Europe; supported by Pope/Catholics • Strong leader, knows languages, loves learning, follows the law • Weak government, rules personally

  4. 7.6.2 Students describe the spread of Christianity north of the Alps and the roles played by the early church and by monasteries in its diffusion after the fall of the western half of the Roman Empire. • deeply religious men want to live lives of study/prayer; join religious orders • monks live in monasteries; nuns live in convents/nunnery • handmade illuminated manuscripts (fancy bibles) • monks take vows of poverty, chastity, prayer • St. Patrick – converts Ireland • St. Boniface – converts Germany and the Netherlands • Benedict of Nursia, sees greed/corruption in the world, writes the Rules of Saint Benedict for monks • convert pagans • Christians: Monotheistic, heaven/hell, Bible, sacraments (Communion, baptism) • Religion is the ONE thing that unifies Europe

  5. 7.6.3 Students understand the development of feudalism, its role in the medieval European economy, the way in which it was influenced by physical geography (the role of the manor and the growth of towns), and how feudal relationships provided the foundation of political order. • Vikings are raiding/invading Northern Europe; people want protection • feudalism= land for loyalty • lord grants land (fief) to vassals; vassals provide knights to protect • serfs are “tied” to the land, farm/work the land • knights follow Christian warrior code of chivalry • three-field system • self-sufficient estate of a medieval lord = manor • lady of the manor – runs the castle, takes care of manor when lord is away • lord of the manor – collects taxes, judges crimes, solves arguments
