🏰 The Fall of the Roman Empire and the Middle Ages
This paragraph delves into the division of the Roman Empire into the Western and Eastern Roman Empires, with the latter moving its capital to Constantinople. It outlines the decline of the Western Roman Empire due to military losses from Germanic attacks, leading to the fall of Rome in 410 AD and 450 AD, and ultimately the end of the Western Roman Empire in 476 AD. This marked the beginning of the Middle Ages, characterized by feudalism and church domination. The socio-political system of feudalism shifted the economic focus from trade to agriculture, leading to a more agrarian society. The influence of the Roman Catholic Church grew, and the period was marked by religious revival and the marginalization of scientific thought, which was often at odds with church teachings.
🔭 Scientific Revolution and Conflict with the Church
The final paragraph explores the scientific revolution and the conflicts it sparked with the Church. It discusses the heliocentric theory proposed by Copernicus, which was initially rejected by the Church in favor of the geocentric model. The Church's resistance to scientific advancements led to the persecution of scientists like Giordano Bruno, who was labeled a heretic and executed. Despite the Church's opposition, evidence supporting the heliocentric theory continued to mount, as seen with Galileo Galilei's support and the improvements he made to the telescope. Galileo's support for the heliocentric theory resulted in his own persecution, including house arrest and the banning of his works, reflecting the intellectual stagnation of the time, often referred to as the Dark Century.

This is a map of the European continent, the majority of countries in Europe are developed countries
in various fields. Europe as a pioneer of industrialization, a
developer of science and technology as well as the quality of the world of education is qualified,
but have we ever thought, how Europe has achieved various advances to
date. The answer is in this video. Let's learn history and learn from history
This is the city of Florence, a historic city in Italy with architectural masterpieces of buildings
and natural beauty that holds a long story about the rise of Europe. Florence is crossed
by the river Arno at the foot of the Apeninne hills which makes the area relatively fertile. Its strategic location
as a center for meetings of various cities in Northern Italy make florence as the
City's biggest trading and richest in Italy in the 13th century until the 16th century was not wrong when
florence referred to as the City of advanced and dynamic in his time most of the people who
play a role in development Renaissance was born in Florence and its surroundings like Leonardo Da Vinci
Michaelangelo and Machiavelli. From florence, the renaissance movement was born and spread to
other cities in Italy such as Genoa, Venice and Rome then expanded to
European countries such as England, France and the Netherlands but briefly What is Renaissance?
Literally renaissance comes from French which means rebirth or revival
by the term Renaissance was a period in the history of Europe in the 14th century
until the 17th century were marked by the movement to revive the Greek and Roman culture
characteristic of movement renaissance is a freedom of thought creative and slowly began to
break away from the traditional dogmatic realm of thought. In classical times Europe never
progressed Greek and Roman civilization is a symbol of the heyday of European classical
ancient Greek civilization has a distinctive due to its height in the field of literary philosophy,
astronomy and other sciences
just that Philosophy makes this civilization becomes more special when it appears a group of
philosophers has laid the foundations of this science in Greek civilizations such as Socrates, Aristotle and Plato
After Greece collapsed, Rome developed from the Apenine Peninsula.
Since the 2nd century AD the Roman Empire grew into one of the largest
empires in the world. During its heyday, the Roman Empire was sovereign over the coastal areas of North Africa,
Southern Europe, most of western Europe, the Balkans and most of
the Middle East. Roman civilization adopted the form of Greek civilization they built theatres,
performance arenas to gardens, they were also very proficient in the art of carving
sculptures and pictures. In addition, literature is also growing rapidly in its civilization.
During the time of Constantine the Great he moved the capital of Rome to Constantinople. This decision
caused Roman rule to be divided into two parts,
the western Roman Empire with the capital city of Rome and the Eastern Roman Empire with the capital city of Constantinople.
During the reign of the Western Roman Empire. The territory of the western Romans continued to shrink.
This was due to the military losses incurred as a result of the Germanic
attacks . At the beginning of the 4th century Germanic Barbarians such as the Goths began to dare to attack the
borders of western Roman rule. The frequency of attacks by the Germanic tribes threatened the
territory to the Roman Empire at the end of the 4th century and the beginning of the 5th century.
Until finally the Visigothic King, Alaric managed to penetrate the defenses of the city walls of Rome and plundered the city in 410 AD
After the penetration of the defense of the city of Rome, the Roman population lived
under the threat of the German attack, until in 450 AD the
city of Rome was again attacked by the Germanic people, precisely by the Vandals. The destruction of
looting again occurred in the city of Rome and in the end the Germanic leader named Odoacer
succeeded in forcing the Roman Emperor Romulus Augustus to surrender. The fall of Emperor Rumulus is considered to be
the main factor that led to the end of the reign of the Western Roman Empire. The fall of Western
Rome in 476 marked the beginning of the Middle Ages.
The Middle Ages is the period in Europe between the fall of the
western Roman empire and the birth of the Renaissance. Medieval features were feudalism and
church domination . Feudalism is a socio-political system based on land tenure and
land management. Land management was carried out in exchange for political and military loyalty,
this caused the orientation of the economy to shift from trade to agriculture
so that trading activities in the Mediterranean sea became quiet.
The face of Europe changed to an agrarian society with closed village households
At the end of the 8th century the Frankish Empire led by Charlemagne conquered European territories
The Roman Catholic Church led by Pope Leo III tried to use Charlemagne's power
to protect it from attacks by the Barbarians and the coup of his enemy, while on the other hand
Charlemagne needed the legitimacy of the church to strengthen his power from here, these two
institutions influenced each other and were related to each other. In the year 800 on
Christmas Satisfaction Leo III crowned Charlemagne as Roman Emperor in Saint Peter's Basilica, Rome.
He was considered the successor of Rome and his empire earned the title of holy Roman empire.
Since that event the church slowly began to dominate Europe.
Medieval was a century of religious revival in Europe. At this time the
religion to grow and affect almost all human activities including administration,
as a consequence of science that has evolved in antiquity and marginalized
and regarded as witchcraft that distract people from thinking of divinity
at the time of the work of scientists widely repudiated by the Church for being the bearer of
teachings heretical even the Roman Catholic Church had a court or inquisition tasked with judging
and punishing anyone who dared and disagreed with the official teachings of the church at that time.
The beginning of the conflict between scientists and the church can be traced to the research of Nicolas
Copernicus. ,
A planetary system with the sun at its center otherwise known as the heliocentric theory.
Several centuries earlier, precisely in the 3rd century BC
Greek astronomer Aristarchus had called the Sun the central unit surrounded by the earth,
but this theory was discarded in the lifetime of Copernicus because the idea of the earth as the
center of the solar system was more accepted by the Catholic Church, which was very influential at that time.
This Copernican theory shook the Catholic Church and was considered a violation of religious teachings.
Finally, until his death at the age of 70, Copernicus did not make
any meaningful dissemination of his theory. The church branded him a heretic
by marking his grave with the words "The loser who asks God for forgiveness is
like a thief who died on the cross". The end of Copernicus' life was still
luckier than Giordano Brunodi. Giordano Bruno was an Italian philosopher and
mathematician who is very determined to support the Copernican theory
he himself belongs to spawn once the relevant work in the present which states that the star
is just the sun surrounded by exoplanets. Bruno was immediately considered a heretic by the inquisition,
he was thrown into prison and sentenced to death even though Bruno did not even want to
change his stance on his scientific beliefs. The church was getting so angry that
he was sentenced to be burned alive in the city square of Rome. Because of his persistence in
defending scientific theories in this modern era, Bruno was nicknamed the warrior of science.
Even though the church inquisition had punished the proponents of the heliocentric
theory, in fact the theory was getting solid evidence in the hands of scientists. In 1604
Galileo Galilei publicly stated that he supported the theory put forward by Copernicus.
Galileo also had a big hand in improving the telescope by making magnifications
up to 30 times with better image quality. With the telescope he created,
Galileo then observed objects in the solar system. He was then
able to put forward a theory about the solar system in more detail and reasonable.
Because he supported Copernicus' theory, Galileo was opposed by various parties, as a result he was
then arrested and taken to Rome to undergo an inquisition. The Catholic Church ordered
Galileo to forbid condemning and despising this theory. Galileo was sentenced to life under
house arrest and Galleo's books were also banned. Such conditions
made European society experience a decline in science and
intellectual backwardness so that the Middle Ages was referred to as the DARK CENTURY.
