Question

Why wasn’t the Middle Ages a pleasant time to live in? List 3 reasons.

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

The Middle Ages was a period of time categorized for its famine, plague, wars/crusades, and "backward-ness".

1. Nobles often dominated over serfs, who barely had a livelihood and had to work for these lords.

2. The Black Death hit in the Late Middle Ages, creating a death toll that rose to about 1/3 of the population.

3. Terrible weather patterns resulted in poor harvest yields and thus led to the Great Famine.
