Warfare was endemic to the period, often on a very small scale. When at war, medieval rulers typically depended on troops paid from their own resources, supported by soldiers provided by their vassals. This meant that only limited number of troops could be raised, and difficulties in logistics and communications further limited this number. For this reason, warfare was often conducted by raids through enemy territories and sieges of important towns or castles. Open field battles between armies were quite rare.

Notable conflicts of the era were between the [[British|English]] and the [[French]] in the [[Hundred Years' Wars]], the conquests of [[Charlemagne]], and several peasant revolts.
