Best Answer

The biggest influence on social life was religion, particularly the Catholic Church. The people of medieval Europe were very religious and most aspects of their lives reflected their beliefs. Politically, most European nation-states were established under an emperor or monarch. This paved the way for feudalism, a merit based system which determines the benefits one has that are earned by contributions to the country. The slave trade was a big factor for the medieval European economy. The imperialist superpowers like England and France saw slave trade as an opportunity for cheap or free labor.
