What changes took place in people’s lives during the heyday of the Middle Ages?

If we talk about the dawn of the Middle Ages, then it should be noted that during this period of time all power in the country was subdued by the kings. Absolutism flourished and the monarch had complete power over all inhabitants. Also, the monarchs controlled the church, and the latter, in turn, controlled society and was a powerful tool in the hands of power. People did not have their own freedom, but belonged to the feudal lords and worked on their land. People lived very poorly at this time.
