Were the Dark Ages really that dark? Many things changed in Europe after the Fall of (Western) Rome in 476 AD (CE). Governments broke down. People moved to the countryside. Cities fell into ruin. Engineering and architectural skills were forgotten. Raiding and warfare were common. But the early Middle Ages prepared the way for the emergence of new social and political structures in the Late Middle Ages and Renaissance era. And, in the eastern city of Constantinople, the Roman Empire survived for another 1000 years.
