The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Following the fall of the Western Roman Empire and the decline in knowledge of Greek, Christian Western Europe was cut off from an important source of ancient learning.
- Although a range of Christian clerics and scholars from Isidore and Bede to Jean Buridan and Nicole Oresme maintained the spirit of rational inquiry, Western Europe would see a period of scientific decline during the Early Middle Ages.
- However, by the time of the High Middle Ages, the region had rallied and was on its way to once more taking the lead in scientific discovery.
Why it is Common

The European science in the Middle Ages article was read about 13,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 71 and blocks with 53: each hit it takes is cut by 21 %.
