2.11 Here Comes the Hot Weather

In the 10th century, something started to change in Europe. The weather turned warmer, the population exploded, and the economy began to turn complex in new ways. These changes were the foundation for the aspects we commonly associate with medieval Europe to this day- including crusades. As always, maps and sources available at https://my.captivate.fm/historyoftheoutremer.wordpress.com (historyoftheoutremer.wordpress.com) and new episodes every other week.
