- The Dark AgesLifestyle
- In a European Kingdom, middle ages, king Arthur and his queen Guinevere dwell in the castle.
- Yes, I will grant you land, making you a vassal.
- A citizen asks to be granted ownership of a fief (land). This person is a vassal, the power level beneath a king.
- Your highness, I would like to be granted a fief to lord over if thou may be so kind to give into my request.
- Sir Lancelot
- The vassal then finds peasents to work the fief. These peasents accept, as they are the lowest in the class system, and this is their role.
- I shall offer this feif for you to work, in return you'll give me your crops, keeping some to feed thouselves of course.
- Deal, though labor is hardwork, it's our lifestyle as peasents, and we will never become more than that.
- These are some fine crops you've grown, I offer my protection to you and this land , and in return you could repay me with some of the harvest.
- A knight , Sir Kay, offers protection to a peasent for crops in return, knights are more powerful than peasents, but not vassals.
- Well thank you, I suppose that arrangement works.
- Many diseases ran rampant during the middle ages, but a specific plague hit europe in the 1300s... the BUBONIC PLAGUE.
- These vile rodents are everywhere!
- The bubonic plague was spread from rats, which infected insects clung onto, eventually spreading to humans and having detrimental effects!

- Eventually the plague stopped harassing this town and they all moved on with new economics and governing, trade and merchantmen flourished and soon the plague was a bitter memory, huzzah! Time for the end of the middle ages and the start of the age of exploration!
