Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -To many historians, the fall of the Western Roman Empire in the 5th century CE has always been viewed as the end of the ancient world and the onset of the Middle Ages, often improperly called the Dark Ages, despite Petrarch’s assertion.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Sack of Rome and the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 marked the beginning of the Middle Ages.
Detailed explanation-3: -The idea of the “Dark Ages” came from later scholars who were heavily biased toward ancient Rome. In the years following 476 A.D., various Germanic peoples conquered the former Roman Empire in the West (including Europe and North Africa), shoving aside ancient Roman traditions in favor of their own.
