WEEK 4
TEST 1
GROUPS IN SOCIETY
KING - kings in medieval times had an easy life. they ruled the lands and was on top of the rank.
NOBLES - The nobles' place in society was essentially to function as middle-men between the peasants and the royal family. Nobles provided work, land, and protection to the peasants while providing funding, supplies, and military service to the king.May 29, 2012
CHURCH - The Medieval Church played a far greater role in Medieval England than the Church does today. In Medieval England, the Church dominated everybody's life. All Medieval people – be they village peasants or towns people – believed that God, Heaven and Hell all existed
KNIGHTS - Knights were medieval gentleman-soldiers, usually high-born, raised by a sovereign to privileged military status after training as a page and squire. Originally knights were attendants or specialized foot-soldiers, but the status of knights was elevated around 800 A.D.
PEASANTS - Peasants were the poorest people in the medieval era and lived primarily in the country or small villages. Serfs were the poorest of the peasant class, and were a type of slave.

WEEK 5
CRIME & PUNISHMENT
TRIALS
TRIALS BY ORDEAL
Trial by ordeal was an ancient judicial practice by which the guilt or innocence of the accused was determined by subjecting them to a painful, or at least an unpleasant, usually dangerous experience.
BY WATER - trial by water was one of the ways of telling if the accused is guilty or innocent. people would tie the accused hands and legs and throw them in a pit full of water such as a river or lake and if they drown they are innocent if they float they are guilty. this process was very unfair as back then probably no one knew how to swim
TRIAL BY COMBAT - trial by combat was another way finding guilt in people back then. this trial was used for higher classes. the accused would fight the accuser and if the accused died they would be found guilty. some accusers would find a champion to fight for them which could be unfair for the other opponent because some champions could be skilled
TRIAL BY FIRE - trial by fire was the third way to find if the accused was guilty. they would have to either walk on a trail of hot coal or had to hold a hot iron bar on their hands and if it healed they would be found innocent
TYPES OF PUNISHMENT
excecution
ears or fingers cut off
the wheel
THE MODERN JUSTICE COMPARED TO THE MEDIEVAL JUSTICE
Similarities - crimes end with consquences
differences - modern justice is fair
The punishments are fair and fits the crime and most if not all countries don't execute the accused and now it is innocent before proven guilty unlike the middle ages when someone can be accused and only proven innocent after trials
