TIMES
47
A range of significant events that shaped our
48
modern age occurred in the 1250 years from 500
49
to 1750 AD. As the Roman Empire declined towards
50
500 AD
groups of invaders moved into and took
51
control of Roman territory. One such group was
52
the Vikings from Scandinavia. European society in
53
the early medieval period was organised as a rigid
54
feudal system. Feudalism also dominated distant
55
Asian empires. Early medieval times are generally
56
considered periods of little progress in technology
57
and knowledge. Later
in the Renaissance period

Middle Ages
65
The rise of Islam saw the growth of a new world
66
religion that was to clash with Christianity in
67
Europe. The Crusades were evidence of one such
68
conflict. Under the Umavyads
Abbasids
69
and Mughals. Islam spread across a large area of
70
Asia and western Europe.
71
Far-eastern and south-eastern Asia also
72
experienced transformations. The Khmer Empire
73
grew and flourished in Laos
Cambodia and
74
Thailand. In Japan there was ongoing rivalry
75
for power
and control of the country gradually
76
shifted from the emperor to noble families. Central

Asia experienced the rapid rise of the Mongols
81
who developed a vast empire that extended into

Europe and connected these two continents.

During this period
not only were the nature

and organisation of society transformed but the

ability of countries to look beyond their own

countries explored far beyond the boundaries
96
of their known worlds. This period saw new
97
connections develop between continents. The
98
societies of Europe and Asia developed trade links
99
along the Silk Road. The European discovery of
100
the Americas and Australia was made by daring
101
explorers who sailed into uncharted seas. There
102
were movements of people and ideas between
103
continents. This interaction of people
cultures and
104
ideas triggered the revolution in technology and
105
science that transformed our world.
