5. Throughout the Middle Ages several political, religious and social crises ripped through the Holy Roman Empire. One of the greatest challenges to face the people living within the borders of the Holy Roman Empire were the waves of Bubonic Plague, or the Black Death.Almost a quarter of the population of the Holy Roman Empire were killed during the waves of the plague in the 1300s. The church remained one of the strongest institutions in Europe, and in the Holy Roman Empire.Individuals might have turned to the church for everything from spiritual comfort, to an explanation for the tragedy, and for more mundane needs such as food and other charity. Rulers knew that aligning themselves with this strong institution would also increase the stability of their own rule. Faith in the Face of Suffering Free to share, print, make copies and changes.

In the 12th century, Prague built new buildings such as monasteries, bridges, and the Old New Synagogue, one of Prague's first gothic buildings. In 1346, Charles IV became both the Holy Roman Emperor and the king of Bohemia.As a result, Prague became a major political center in Europe, attracting artists and artisans from various locations, including Italy. During this period, Prague became the third largest city in Europe, and Charles IV set about transforming the city in to an imperial capital with monumental architecture. Charles IV oversaw construction of the New Town, including the gothic Charles Bridge, as well as the St. Vitus Cathedral. Prague Free to share, print, make copies and changes.
