Medieval Times reflection

We are in the middle of doing Medieval Times. For one of are class projects we need to create a medieval village in Minecraft. In groups we had to build our own building in the village. Iwas assigned to make the blacksmith. I have learned many things in this topic. Like how a plague wipe out the majority of a countries population. How merchants would travel to distant lands to seek rare items, and may encounter robbers or pirates. How offenders will be punished depending on their offence. How young knights would have to train all their childhood. And how the churches were powerful enough to start a war. Reading books and watching videos helped me to understand these.
