The "Dark Ages" occurred during medieval times.. During this day and age there were lots of social conflict(diseases , child labor, and human trafficking) and enviromental conflict as well. the "Dark Ages" may have been the worst years in the lives of the people in Europe.

The dark ages may have many definitions based on who is defining it, but, it has a general definition which defines it as the time period ushered in by the fall of Rome. This era took on the term "dark" by later foreigners due to the backwards practices and ways that seemed to prevail at this time. Future historians used the terms to denote the fact that little was actually known about this period. In this era the term "Dark Ages" may not be used frequently whereas the term "Early Middle Ages" is more widely used. The "Dark Ages" occurred during medieval times.. During this day and age there were lots of social conflict(diseases , child labor, and human trafficking) and enviromental conflict as well. The "Dark Ages" may have been the worst years in the lives of the people in Europe.

During the dark ages the people of Europe struggled with a lot beyond the health of themselves and family members. In this time period , they struggled with many hardships that , sadly, they had no control over. The society in this era was more than misconstrued and hard to deal with. Education was a huge factor in the society as well childlabor, human trafficking, etc. Though the Europeans didnt have it easy , it was a time period in which they had to do what had to be done in order to survive and make it out alive. Another great factor of this time period was war. War was a very common aspect in the lives of the European in this era. As many know this area was very barbarous and full of war, which brings me to my next point. War also played a large role in this times and the violence endured...
