How much knowledge did post Roman Empire, but pre Renaissance people in Eurasia know about history?

Could you narrow this down just a little bit? Eurasia covers two continents with immense geographic, cultural, religious, and political differences, on top of the cast amounts of time that you're looking at as well. (and that's ignoring a society like the Byzantines for whom the idea of a post-Roman Empire world would be completely nonsensical)
