1095-1291: The Crusades (27 nov 1095 – 3 mars 1291)
Description:
Before the crusades, Europe's economy was centered around manors, but the Crusades marked the decline of feudalism and the rise of towns as centers of trade and commerce. During the Crusades, and similar expeditions afterwards, various arts, goods, inventions, and ideas were introduced and exchanged between Europe and Asia. The increased trade led to several improved economies, and the new knowledge brought by returning crusaders helped to bring about the Renaissance in Western Europe.Ajouté au bande de temps:
