Decline of Feudalism

100 Years of War

The 100 years of war was actually 116 years of war it was in 1337-1453 it began after the French king's death without a successor and the English King claimed it for him self (due to his Norman heritage)

The English started winning first due to the weapon they had their weapon that made the win first was called the English Longbow. But the France started winning again for their cannons and chain shot.

There was this girl named Joan Arc she was a peasant then a knight she inspired men and that made them fight harder against the English. She got caught and burned being named a Witch. Instead of making the men feel bad and disappointed it made fight harder. In the end the French won

The Plague

The Black Death was originally from Central China then spread-out all the way to Europe it was from trade that spread it. It was not only that but there hygiene as well.

The rats started coming since they just threw their feces and urine out of there house. That meant the rats would get infected from there urine and feces and since the rats came that means also fleas.

People in the Medieval times didn't have any sewers or toilet they didn't have a proper system for hygiene. So what people would do is they would throw their poop outside in the streets of there house.

Since the fleas bit into the rats and killed them the fleas would get infected because of the rats making a disease. So the fleas would go to the people now making them get infected of the disease called the black death.

The Black Death killed half of the population in all of Europe and other countries as well. The symptoms of the Black Death were high fever, lumps, coughing blood, and etc.

Political Changes

King Henry II of England insisted that people should have a fair trial by a judge or jury. This eliminated Trial by Ordeal and Trail be Combat

The Magna Carta was a contract the nobles forced King John to sign because he was abusing his power. The Magna Carta took power away from the king and empowered nobles and commoners.

The Magna Carta introduced the idea that the monarch was not above the law. It also introduced the idea of "habeas corpus" which said that an accused person cannot be jailed without being charged with a crime.

Because of the change fewer innocent people were wrongly punished

King Edward decided that England needed to include more people in government. He created the Model Parliament

The Model Parliament was a governing body that included commoners in government. That allowed the common people to have a voice in making decisions for the country.
