Question

The period from 500 to 1000 AD was known as the "Dark Ages". How would you explain to another person WHY this was called the Dark Ages? Do you think this is a correct term for this period? Why or why not? Be specific

Answer 1

A good way to explain why it is called the dark ages is for one the Roman Empire fell. After the fall of Rome people started to become unsanitary. With people being unsanitary the Bubonic Plague started in. he Plague was started by the bite of a simple flea, later on about 2/3 of Europe was wiped out. Tell the person tat disease had entered and many other terrible things to sum it up.
