The Rise of Feudalism
• While Charlemagne’s descendants were not able to recreate the glory of the Roman Empire, the Franks did greatly affect life in the Middle Ages.
• Indeed, the Frankish practice of giving land to nobles in exchange for loyalty and military service spread throughout Western Europe.

Questions for Reflection:
• Why did historians call the early Middle Ages the “Dark Ages”?
• Who was Clovis and how did his conversion affect the Franks?
• Why did Pope Leo III crown Charlemagne “Holy Roman Emperor”?
• Define feudalism.• How is feudalism different from other
political systems?
