The year 500 was a turning point between the ancient and medieval worlds.&nbsp;
The Western Roman Empire was gone. New kingdoms were rising across Europe. Persia and Byzantium remained great powers, and civilizations flourished from China and India to Africa and the Americas.
It was a world divided by distance, yet connected by trade, migration, warfare, and religion, though probably not as much as it had been just a few centuries earlier.
Learn more about what was happening around the world in the year 500 on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
