Answer:
The word 'Modern' is a periodisation that is borrowed from the West where the modern period was associated with the growth of all the forces of modernity – science, reason, democracy, liberty and equality.
Medieval was a term used to describe a society where these features of modern society did not exist.
The span of recorded history is roughly 5,000 years, beginning with Sumerian Cuneiform script;
the oldest discovered form of coherent writing from the proto-literate period around the 30th century BC.
Ancient history covers all continents inhabited by humans in the 3000 BC – AD 500 period.
