It was probably from trying to gain the upperhand in war, like how most discoveries come about

Most people Like saint Thomas Aquinas did extensive writings on the works of Aristotle

They were the only ones not afraid of where their next meal will be. And felt "divine protectioj" from the disease

Millions of words written and disseminated

This is also not true

But the church and the clergy moreso didnt release much of their work until post dark ages

During that period food was more abundant than during the Roman Period

Wrong

Are you illiterate

The roman empire began the collapse due to shortages on food and cropping of disease. Europe went through a cold spell

Farming techniques and innovation skyrocketed after the fall of the Roman Empire

The viking raids for instance were due to this cold spell

The 3 cycle cropping

The aquaducts were dismantled for housing. How is that innovations?

the invention of a plow to be pulled by horses

The invention of the water mill

The aqueducts were an extravagance of the Urban

No point in having water go to a big city, when you can send it all to the farms along the way

The romans invented the horse drawn plaugh you nob

By the Han period, the entire ploughshare was made of cast iron; these are the first known heavy mouldboard iron ploughs. The Romans achieved the heavy wheeled mouldboard plough in the late 3rd and 4th century AD, when archaeological evidence appears, inter alia, in Roman Britain

It took wealth and centralized it in the cities

WRONG

wow, I didn't realize how much Pinker is a lying sack of shit

Key word here is HORSE drawn

It was horse drawn you nob

When was the fall of the Roman empire

mid 500s

It was not until the 900s that the Horse collar, horse shoe and plow were found

before that it was done by oxen

Sorry technicality they were oxen drawn but same bloody concept

Horses could pull as much weight

But oxen didnt need the harnes
