Synopsis "Europe A 2000-Year Chronicle (in English)"
Rome succeeded Greece as the dominant Mediterranean civilization. Emperor Constantine declared Christianity state religion. The Visigoths invaded Rome, which led to the end of the empire and marked the beginning of the Middle Ages. The Vikings dominated the period from the late 700s to the middle 1000s. They settled in Northern France and expanded through much of Europe. The Crusaders established trade routes that opened the way for the merchant republics of Genoa and Venice. The Renaissance saw the revival of classical learning and of the values of ancient Greece and Rome. Growing prosperity, the development of the printing press and the discovery of new continents led to the flowering of philosophy, literature and the arts. Beginning in the 1500s, European navigators conducted explorations that established direct links with Africa, the Americas and Asia. Britain led the world through the first industrial revolutiion which saw steam engines replace human labor in industry. During the second industrial revolution, its position as the world leader in industry was lost to Germany.

The United States and the Soviet Union emerged from the war as the tw global superpowers. In 1958, the European Economic Community was established.
