that was not typical
that seems like a city ordinance
@Pelth it was entirely typical. starvation, death in childhood, famines and so on were the norm
they would have no way to enforce those laws
@Pelth the people in the cities lived comparable luxurious lives with fine wares, lots of money to spend, exotic goods
@Pelth you're a fucking idiot who knows nothing about history and everything you say is wrong
you're just endlessly making up dumb shit that you for some reason wish was true
there usually weren't many laws
you're ignorant as fuck on this subject
you need to stop
justice was enforced by the serfs themselves in many cases
you're a clueless fucking mongoloid who knwos nothing about medieval economy
or by appeal to their lord
you dont' understand anything about serfdom, how it ended, the transition from open field system to agricultural enclosure
you're just some weirdo who got some weird romantic idea of serfdom and wants to make up dumb shit about it
a typical lord would have a handful of permanent soldiers at best
the reality is that in serfdom these people lived in rags, they were so malnutritioned that they usually only grew to about 5 foot to 5 and a half foot tall
literally that was their height
imagine eating so little nutrition that you grew to only 5 and a half foot tall
the population of medieval europe was actually quite low
and there were vast areas totally unpopulated
and what happened is that it broke down and was replaced by agricultural enclosure and people packed the cities and a supernova of advancement and innovation and trade and rising living standards occurred
THAT IS BECAUSE THEY WERE STUCK IN A MALTHUSIAN TRAP
OMG
people generally were pretty cool with each other
THE REASON THE POPULATION STAYED LOW IS BECAUSE THEY WERE STARVING ALL THE TIME
it was a bro relationship between lord and serfs
"people generally were pretty cool with each other"
homicide rates in holland and belgium
african warzone shit
not only were these malnutrition midgets starving, but they were constantly murdering one another
germany and switzerland
