Feudal+and+late+Medieval+Europe

After the Western Roman Empire fell in 476 C.E., Europe became an unstable and violent place. Feudalism emerged as the new social order of the Middle Ages and the Roman Catholic Church became a dominant institution. During this period in history, major events such as the Crusades, the bubonic plague, and the Hundred Years' War shook European society. These events also moved Europe slowly away from feudalism. Later, new technologies and ideas directed European society toward the early modern era.
