The richest people in the society (like elon musk or the kardashians lol) were called "aristocrats". Over a third of society were women and children, the others were men. Women were considered citizens but were not able to vote. Freeman, men who were not slaves (but were second-class to the common people), were not allowed to vote or participate in government (like run for senate or smt). Freemen made up around 10% of the population. They often were not born in Athens and moved there to find good jobs and make money. Freemen were often craftsmen and merchants. When the economy started going up, the number of merchants increased and trade increased as well. Slaves made up 1/3 of the population, and slaves were mostly prisoners of war (people captured in war). Slaves were considered private property, owned by an individual and not the government.
Not only were the royal coffers depleted, but two decades of poor harvests, drought, cattle disease and skyrocketing bread prices had kindled unrest among peasants and the urban poor.
what exactly do you want to write about the black death? do you want to talk about how it affected many people or how it started? these are common but are the most understandable and easy ways to start.
<span>C. Allowing newly added territories to the United States decide for themselves the slavery issue.

Popular sovereignty was proposed as a way to decide the issue of slavery in the new territories. Under such a system, the local population would decide the slavery issue rather than Congress.
