my opinion on what life would have been like for peasants
what i think life of being a peasant would be like is a very hard, and difficult because of the social group you're in. peasants back then would have been treated very poorly because of how much money they have, which i think is terrible. I've heard that peasants back then were actually very loyal people, which i think is great, because since they had leaders of the monarchy, they most likely would have never actually turned on them, which i amazing, since most people probably would of if they treated them wrongly. being a peasant would be hard considering the fact that everyone above you on the social group would treat you terribly and you couldn't do a thing because of how low of a social class you are in. peasants had to deal with a lot of things including having to share a small house with your family, having to do so much work everyday, having to limit the food you eat because of how poor you are, working for the monarchy and feeling really low because of it, and having to sleep in one room with the rest of your family squishing so you would all fit, and i think its amazing that they dealt with that so controllably.
