Question

What was not the cause of chaos in the Dark Ages?

• A. Difference of opinions between the state and the church
• B. Emergence of new businesses in the midst of the Dark Ages
• C. Conflict between the vassals and their kings
• D. Fall of Western Roman Empire

Answer 1

The correct option is D Fall of Western Roman Empire

The Western Roman Empire fell before the onset of the Dark Ages of Medieval Europe. During the Dark Ages, the lesser feudal lords began to indulge in new businesses which made them rich. So, they broke away from their feudal contracts and some even began to challenge their kings. At some point in the Dark Ages, the church wanted an upper hand in administration and clashed against the state.
