From the Fall of Rome to Viking Conquests: A Journey Through Medieval Power

Is getting your learner excited about medieval history harder than steering a longship through stormy seas? This self-paced mini-unit takes them from the fall of Rome to the rise of Charlemagne and the Viking Age, immersing them in the decisions, conflicts, and shifting power that shaped medieval Europe.

Before the Vikings launched their legendary raids, Germanic tribes carved up the Western Roman Empire, and Charlemagne worked to unite feudal Europe. Learners will step into the role of medieval leaders, making strategic decisions that will determine the fate of their people.

• Witness the Fall of Rome – See how invading tribes reshaped Europe after the empire’s collapse.
• Rise of the Franks – Follow Charlemagne’s reign and the foundation of medieval European culture.
• Command the Viking Age – Raid, trade, or rule—every decision shapes the future.

Why This Simulation Stands Out

Let’s face it—history is more than just memorizing names and dates. This simulation places learners in the heart of the action, where they’ll strategize, lead, and experience history firsthand.

• Make decisions that shape history – Expand empires, forge alliances, or conquer new lands.
• Step into the role of a leader – Navigate the power struggles that defined medieval Europe.
• Engage with interactive challenges – No passive reading—learners will explore history through action.

A Self-Paced Adventure Built for Engagement

This isn’t just a lesson—it’s a history experience that lets learners explore at their own pace, dive deep into key turning points, and take control of their journey through medieval Europe.

The fate of kingdoms is in their hands—are they ready to lead? Let’s set sail!
