Franks •The Franks were the most successful of the Germanic kingdoms.

Clovis • Clovis became king of the Franks, conquered the former Roman province of Gaul, and converted to Christianity

Islamic Empire

Charlemagne

•Charlemagne became king of the Franks and built an empire that included most of Western Europe (France, Germany, and a part of Italy).

•He united the empire by building roads, schools and churches.

• Pope Leo III crowned Charlemagne as Emperor in 800 CE. This formed an alliance between the Frankish Kings and the Christian Church, reviving Roman culture in Western Europe.

Viking Invasions and Early Norman Manors

Influence of these invasions: •Towns emptied and trade was disrupted.

• People fled to manors with castles that provided protection from invaders. • They entered into feudal agreements with the lords of the manors who promised them protection.

Manorial System During the Middle Ages • A manors was the lord’s estate. •Manors were selfsufficient agricultural communities. Everything one needed was made on the manor. From crops, clothing, fuel, to a water source.

• Manors had a rigid class structure: Nobles were at the top (king, lords, and knights) and serfs were at the bottom.

King

Lords

Knights Vassals

Serfs (peasants)

Feudalism • A loosely organized system of government based on the exchange of land for protection and services .

• A lord would give a grant of land called a fief to a knight. In return the knight would fight for the lord.

The knight who received the fief became the lord’s vassal. The vassal would pledge his loyalty and military service to the greater lord. In turn he would become lord of his own smaller manor (fief).

Manors and the Feudal System

• The lords held most of the power in feudal society because they had complete control over their manors and the people who lived there.

• Kings had very little direct control over the people. They had high social status, but little power.

Weak Kings and Strong Nobles

•Knights were mounted warriors who pledged to defend their lords’ lands.

Knights

• Serfs were peasants who were bound to the land. The serfs farmed the land for the lords in return for protection from invaders. Serfs made up most of the population.
