The middle ages was a time period of about 1,000 years, from about 500 AD through 1500 AD, between the fall of Rome and the Renaissance. Civilization mostly existed as feudalism in Europe. Until the 12th century in Europe, science and learning was mostly limited to churches and monasteries, which continued to copy ancient manuscripts and religious writings.

Because of it's length, it is helpful to divide the Middle Ages into three overlapping periods. they are the Early Medieval, which dates from about the last quarter of the fifth century to the middle of the eleventh; The Romanesque, which, in most areas, took place during the eleventh and twelfth centuries; and The Gothic, which overlapped the Romanesque and continued in some areas into the sixteenth century
