Medieval Europe, also known as the Middle Ages, was a period in European history that lasted from the fall of the Western Roman Empire in the 5th century to the beginning of the Renaissance and the Age of Discovery in the late 15th century. This thousand-year era is often divided into three periods: the Early, High, and Late Middle Ages.[1]
