Who gave you this assignment? The Middle Ages were a thousand years long (from 431 to 1453) and spanned a dozen countries with different cultures, languages and governments. How are you supposed to distill ALL of that in a single paragraph?

The best I can suggest is that the Middle Ages were a time of change. Concentrate on one area, like the Frankish kingdoms or England, rather than trying to make sweeping generalizations about the entire continent.

easy as a doozy![ :

Europe in the middle ages was basically in a society of feudalism. kings and queens on the top, lords and ladies next, then knights, and finally peasants and serfs.the magna carta helped demolish some of the king's power in england.the crusades happen between 1095 to 1291, was a series of battles by christians against muslims. christians wanted to recapture jerusalem.church was important in the lives of people in the europe. the black death happened at the late middle ages, plus the hundred years war.

I was actually there in the middle ages, so listen to me.
The middle ages was the years around the middle of each century, like 1950, 1850, 1750, ect. Basically, being alive sucked, the only thing to do was play tetris on the massive computers that they had. A lot of people commited suicide because life was so boring, then the president to Europe came along and made it illegal to kill yourself, so of course, everyone stopped and began learning about things like polo and how to talk weird, they even developed their own language after based on todays American English. I was called Englesch. But soon people became bored again and began to kill eachother instead of commiting suicide. The president at the time, King Soloman, quickly made it illegal to murder, so since no one could die, everyone lived forever, and life became extremely dull.
