CH 10- The Worlds of European Christendom: Connected and Divided 500- 1300

CH 10- The Worlds of European Christendom: Connected and Divided 500- 1300

This chapter largely focuses on Byzantium and Western Europe becoming the focal point of the Christian world. Byzantium was a continuation of Roman Empire which was part of an ancient Greek city. Christendom was divided into two parts the eastern and western. It is interesting to see that the western part collapsed while the eastern part persisted. In addition, the religious and the political became separate things while before they worked hand in hand. Finally, we will always see change throughout history because that is what allows us to learn and improve the way that we live for the most part.
