Middle Ages: The Dark Ages

The Middle Ages should be labeled as The Dark Ages because barbarians invaded places, people fled from towns to forests and hills, and people were slaughtered. In addition to The Dark Ages the label Age of Faith is adequate because there were lots of loyalty and protection. The label Age of Feudalism is a poor label because there is very limited evidence to show that. The only evidence we have is that people owe service to a fief and the King and he will pay them back. In addition to The Age of Feudalism the label A Golden Age is also a rough label.
The label The Dark Ages is a excellent label. The Dark Ages is a good label because it talks about people invading and running towns. In document one it talks about “ barbarians have broken through
In document six it talks about “even at its worst it performs the function of guarding, frequently by accident and chance, the knowledge and treasures of what had come before, but even more it was creative and inventive, and transmitted to later ages riches of its own.” That is a good quote for The Golden Ages but that only happened rarely mostly it was wars and people getting slaughtered. For Age of Feudalism there was more fighting all over than one empire taking control of everything and even if they did that would be better because then they would have an empire controlling and no more wars.
The Dark Ages and The Age of Faith are good labels. They are good labels because the was a lot of dark things happening in those times. There was people getting killed and towns getting taken over. There was also people being faithful to their towns and helping play defense against the people that attacked. The Golden Age and The Age of Feudalism are not as good labels. They are not good labels because there was little good things that happened and that includes very little innovation. In addition there was no main kingdom that took over everything it was more everyone against
