Hello Tave this is a very impressive entry and I enjoyed reading it.
I have noticed a few anomalies you might wish to check.

1.The Pest A strain of Bubonic Plague Yersinia pestis or today known as Y-Pestis.
The estimated death toll 30% to 50% percent of the population of the time.
2.Cloisonné
known as Cloisonné work inlaid enamel Cloisonné is an enclosure enamel technique.
3,Christianity was spreading to former 'pagan lands.
4,From about the 12th Century onwards the Gothic period spread from France to central and parts of southern Europe.
5.Are you referring to the style of architecture?
6. To produce flat glass. Molten glass on a metal rod to form a flat sheet, this was cut and set in the lead.
7.Maybe at first paing was? paing = painting? Chemicals were painted on the glass and heated to bind the chemical paint to bond permanently with the glass.

Well done
smiley - cheers
