In Europe, what were the main diferences between the 10th, 11th, 12th, and 13th centuries? Most Medieval-themed media doesn't seem to put much distinction between them as much as it does between the 19th and 18th centuries, for example.

The End of the XIII and the XIV marks the beggining of the Crisis of teh Late Middle Ages.
