Dark Ages (jan 1, 476 – jan 1, 1300)
Description:
A period of time between the end of the Roman Empire and the Renaissance which is widely believed to have little to no significant societal contributions. This is likely due to lack of documentation surrounding the time period or "later scholars who were heavily biased toward ancient Rome."
