Amid virtual slavery, territorial carnage, and devastating illness the Roman Empire disintegrated. Subject to new regimes and amid the continuing regional armed conflicts, substantive migration shifts, and plague; education became cloistered and the daily lives of plebeian peoples became focused on unmitigated survival.
