The thousand years between Rome and the Renaissance were far stranger and more connected than the word medieval suggests. This collection gathers 99 documentaries on the Middle Ages: castles and knights, the crusades and the plague, feudal Japan and the Islamic world, and the archaeology that keeps overturning the idea of a dark age.
