⚔️ When empires fall, civilizations must choose: fade into obscurity—or forge a new future. In The Dark Ages, renowned historian Charles Oman guides readers through the turbulent centuries between the collapse of the Western Roman Empire and the emergence of medieval Europe. Spanning approximately 476–918 A.D., this work covers the barbarian invasions, the transformation of the Roman world, the rise of Byzantium and Islam, the formation of Germanic kingdoms, and the early stirrings of European feudalism. Originally published in 1893, Oman's vivid narrative brings this era to life with a blend of scholarly insight and dramatic storytelling. It remains a foundational work in historical study—ideal for students, enthusiasts, and anyone curious about the roots of the modern West.
