4.12 Exhibit
Joseph Lesher
The Mayan Calendar-ends in the year 2012 creating many controversies. It belongs in my exhibit because it was one of the first and most accurate calendars of the old ages.
Marco Polo-while traveling to China he met Kublai Khan and befriended him. He would belong in my museum because without him his book "Description of the World" wouldn't have been made ,obviously, but the people of Europe would still have been in the dark about China at that time.

The Byzantine Empire-the Roman empire was moved, when it fell in the West, to the crossroads of Constantinople. It belongs in my exhibit because, being a crossroad, it was heavily influenced by other cultures around it and recieved a myriad of tradding offers.

The Catholic Church-Besides being a religious outlet for the tough times back then, the Church also had a lot of power. It belongs in my museum because the Catholic Church has always been in history whether the reason was positive or negative. In these times it created monastic orders.
Clovis-after the fall of the Roman Empire the Germanic tribes we left to roam freely. Many of them tried to settle down, but only one survived, the Franks. The Franks belong in my Exhibit because they were one of the first other major races in Europe other than the English and the Spanish
