Today in west civ, we took more notes on  Germanic kingdoms and how they united under Charlemagne. I like when you post power points on your blog. It makes it easier and if you forget something you can always go back and look it up later. We talked about the effects of invasion. It effected the learning. There was a decline in learning. Tribes had oral tradition, songs, but couldn't read Greek or Latin. They had romance languages. They had a few priests that were literate. We learned how they emerged. they emerged from AD 400 to 600. The Germanic warriors loyalty is to the lord of the manor. He provides them with food, weapons, and treasure. There was no orderly government for large areas and had small communities that rule.
