 | | During this period, Germany began the systematic genocide of over 11 million people, including the majority of the Jews of Europe, in the Holocaust. | | | Since many Jews worked as money-lenders (usury was not allowed for Christians) and were generally more protected from disease through adherence to their kosher laws concerning hygiene), the Jews were often disliked by Europeans, so it was popular to blame them for the epidemic. | | | Turkey possessed a large part of Europe, but was regarded as alien due to islam, which is a contemporary problem nowadays with the European Union. |

| | A History of Europe |
| | Thus, while universal history has not ended, history in Europe is now so strongly affected by what goes on in the rest of the world that it is no longer peculiarly European. | | | It would be difficult to write an equally complete history today, since hundreds of millions of people continue to live in Europe and persist in doing things of historical note. | | | For a while, and for the first time since the Arab invasions of southern Europe 1200 years before, the continent as a whole became an object of history rather than a subject. |

| | A History of Europe, Chapter 7 |
| | Although Dark Age Europe may not have been in the same class as Islam or China when it came to civilization, after 1000 Western Europe showed a steady economic and cultural growth that would eventually put it ahead of its rivals. | | | There was fear among some Christians that the world would come to an end in the year 1000; when the "Apocalypse" didn't happen, the result was a spirit of optimism that lasted for much of the eleventh century. | | | These were all right for traveling from Frisia to England, but they weren't seaworthy enough to go out on the open sea, so their crews never discovered any new lands. |
