Famous Medieval Events
The Medieval Age was an important period in the history of Europe. Although historians hold different views about its start, many believe that it began with the end of the Western Roman Empire c.476 and ended c.1485.
This ushered in the so-called Dark Ages which were marked by mass migrations, chaos, a lack of strong kingdoms, and an overall period of disorder.
Towards the high and late medieval period, new kingdoms and empires came into being until the Renaissance of Europe finally began and brought back the once-forgotten Roman and Greek knowledge into mainstream consciousness.
Issue of Magna Carta *1215
Magna Carta was a treaty that was issued in 1215 to develop peace between kings and rebel barons.
The Magna Carta was issued by Henry III in 1215 and remains very significant as a landmark constitutional development in the history of Europe.
The treaty provided a practical solution to the dispute between barons and the king. It stipulated that everyone, including the king, will be subject to the law.
It was one of the most important documents in English history because it ensured and guaranteed every individual’s right to justice by a fair trial.
It laid the foundations for other individual liberties.
