Medieval Religion

"The head of the Church, the pope, claimed authority over emperors and kings, and often appointed them. The clergy, or church officials who were authorized to perform religious ceremonies, often owned large tracts of land and were lords of their own manors."

"Much of the Clergy's power cam from the fact that they were virtually the only educated people in medieval Europe. they alone could read and study the bible and other holy writings of Christianity, so they controlled, how faith was interpreted and communicated to the people. Every Christian was expected to show unquestioning obedience to Church authority."

Middle Ages Culture

“During the centuries when the different tribes were conquering and settling various parts of Europe there were no regular governments. There was no law and no means of keeping order. The king claimed all the land in his kingdom and kept large parts of it for himself; the rest of it divided among the followers who had fought with him to get it, on condition that they would help him defend the land in case of attack. These men, having more land than they could defend, divided up their land among other men, who in turn promised to be loyal to them and aid them in time of war.”
