Catholic AnswerExcommunication and Interdiction were used in the medieval Church the same as they are today - to save people's souls. These are the most extreme punishments used to bring people to their senses, and only used in the most extreme cases. Excommunication is used to deny a person access to the sacraments, except of course, confession; interdiction denies the sacraments to a whole area or country. Though relatively rare, excommunication today is much more common as several very serious sins, such as procuring a successful abortion, incur automatic excommunication.

There really is no such thing as "medieval animals." There were animals used or that lived during the middle ages in Europe. They are the same animals that exist there today, with the exception of the turkey and a few other animals that were later imported from America and Australia.
The Franks used corporal punishments like flogging, amputation, and branding, which are not used in Canada today. These differences can be attributed to evolving societal norms, legal systems, and human rights standards. Canada's legal framework emphasizes rehabilitation and restorative justice rather than retribution.
