None, it's never happened
You're moronic. The dark ages where a time of ignorance in Europe. Tools they required and techniques that would been greatly to their benefit where left forgot in old latin books while the world moved on. Remedies for illness and books upon book of recipes, forgot to time.

Didn't even read the rest. I already know you're moronic.
Can't tell if ironic or just low IQ tradcath

Some tech being used less often does not means it regressed
Massive population decrease due to slaughter and the destruction of millennia old irrigation works is a Catastrophe. You should thank the stars that SteppeBlack folk aren't a thing anymore
When things decay naturally you are watching an example of something surrounding such tech being obsolete. Is just a cycling
It wasn't obsolete. They didn't replace it with anything, the language devolved into vulgar latin and the tech was lost for a thousand years. It ushered in a new age of decay, they the black plague hit. Prevention of outbreaks and sickness was a thing the huge romen cities ordered, lost by the early medieval
2000s and 2010s and 2020s. People used to be more technology literate as in actually understand the concepts behind the tech rather than just being able to use it. Technology is also developing into a very cancerous version of itself. For example. Smartphones. A decade ago you used to be able to buy batteries when your battery died and could easily replace it whereas it's made deliberately more difficult. Before every smartphone had headphone jacks but those have all been removed thus you are forced to buy dongles for your old headphones which isn't a big deal since they're cheap but they barely work as your phone will treat it as a charger so most people are forced into buying pretty expensive airpods instead. Like $100-$400 dollars sometimes more. Once the battery in those airpods die you're forced to buy new ones. Compare this to your old headphones which were cheap and easy to replace. The final example is much more recent. The cancer that is esims. There was literally nothing wrong with physical sims and you could easily switch phones and god forbid you try that shit internationally. The objective of this so called progress is to neuter you. We are rapidly heading towards a dystopia with the stranglehold corporations and governments hold over us.
Unironically australian aboriginals. Especifically in tasmania.
The poor guys forgot how to do a lot of shit. they just didn't have the population to mantain it. So they ended up loosing the hability to make fire and all sorts of things due to freak events slowly killing off and the people who knew how to do those things in the island (such as how to make bone needles and things like that)
they even had laws dictating that no matter clan rivalries if someone asked your clan for fire, you have to give it to them by the time europeans arrived in the islands.
collapse of roman institutions in western europe
Khmer Rouge
Collapse of Khmer empire, the Khmer people regressed to jungle tribals flinging shit and using stick to fend off their thai and viet neighbors
Misc Pot's Kampuchea. He woke up one day and decided that his country needed to return to monke.
The Dark Ages and no Medieval simp can tell me otherwise.
>uoooh we invented better armor and fortifications so we're advanced! Ignore how we forgot basic civil administration, mass agrarian techniques, concrete....
>Live in a Roman Church and call it a Palace lmao
The absolute state of Carolingians.
based. The papacy is still squatting in the roman capital. They painted the ceilings with wieners and call it fine art.
agreed but for the vast majority of people absolutely nothing changed
Correct but depends on the region. Britain: absolutely, it was a total collapse. WRE, still very bad. ERE, not so much.
Collapse if the IVC and Mississippi and cultures.
The sinking of Atlantis.
Dont forget the leaving of Epithyrus, the city flew right of the flat earth. It went into the sky and wedged itself between two stars
Finno-Korean Hyperwar.
Worldwide flood.
>another day
>another variation of the fly on pepe
US not being able to go back to the moon and losing manned space lift for decades
Concord jets. And racial integration but that is more of a cultural regression.
Europe destroying their nuclear plants to buy coal
The Bronze Age Collapse, the Dark Ages, America's space program, and America's Nuclear program. "We" literally fired all of the engineers and scientists and had to bring them out of retirement again because "We" forgot all about the technology.
The literal greek dark ages
