Events of the Eleventh and Twelfth Centuries, 1000 to 1199

This group gathers events that began between 1000 to 1199, placed among the events of The Post-Classical and Medieval World. The eleventh and twelfth centuries brought the Norman conquests, the first Crusades and the early growth of royal law in western Europe. An event belongs here when its cited article gives a start date inside this span. It excludes events that began earlier or later, which sit in the neighboring groups of the same period, and it does not turn on how large or famous an event was.
