Medieval+Times+Trading+Cards

= = =Due on Monday, January 14th=

When we hear the terms "Dark Ages", "Medieval", or "Middle Ages," we often imagine the Knights Templar, King Author, catapults, the black plague, serfs, or the Crusades. However, much of these images come from what Europe looked like between the 400's and 1400's CE

In this project, you will create Medieval Times Trading Cards, much like //Magic the Gathering.//



=Expectations=
 * All group members must be able to put all 15 events in order (Include a date for each card)
 * Each card must __explain what happened__ at each event, and __why it is important__.
 * Include a picture representing each event. The picture can be hand drawn or printed from a computer.
 * Use complete sentences when describing each event.
 * Each card must have a points value (between -100 & 100)
 * Each group member __**MUST**__ have a works cited page in MLA format!
