@JethroTull739 #petersenPV10 it seems like absolute monarchies used serfdom as a tool to give the nobles a feeling of control over the people, while actually keeping them from becoming involved in government (Megan)

@famstructure10 #petersenPV10 this seems to oppose the traditional view of women in which they only served the purpose of bearing women.The need of women to work shows the slow shift of women beginning to join the work force even if equality within it was non-existent(Megan)

@18centCityboyz #petersenPV10 with more people living in the city there was an increase in the number of people working in the secondary sector. Since this shift, the number of people working in the primary sector in developed nations has remained low (Megan)

@procanman #petersenPV10 it is interesting how nobles used the courts to try to prevent absolutism as today the justice/court system serve as one way to balance power in government. It was like a branch of government before their were official divisions (Megan)

@BigStepNewAge #petersenPV10 The harsh and dangerous conditions in the factories led to the creation of labor unions that serve the purpose of fighting for the rights of workers. They are still in use today although they have greatly changed. (Megan)

@ageoftheghetto #petersenPV10 This separation continued into the 20th century with the persecution of Jews during the holocaust occurring greatly in and around Poland. (Megan)

@ageoftheghetto Anna Hallissey — a disgrace that Jewish people would be discriminated like this for years to come afterwards too because their discrimination didn’t end until the end of World War II #peoplesuck #jewishequality #PetersenPV10

@JethroTull739 Anna Hallissey — Watch plantings too many potatoes...soon there will be an outbreak and *BOOM* no more potatoes for you #potatofamine #PetersenPV10

[The Land and Its Tillers @ProTractor02496]

@18centCityboyz Anna Hallissey — The nobles only owned land making them richer, so they collected money and taxed the peasants. Rising bread prices was hard because the poor can’t afford bread as it is and the nobles could get anything they wanted because they controlled the land #petersenpv10

[The Land and Its Tillers @ProTractor02496]

@BigStepNewAge Anna Hallissey — The textiles had terrible working conditions for all of its workers, but many people needed money and jobs so they put up with the conditions. Women and children had it especially difficult compared to men who usually owned the textiles #petersenpv10

[The Land and Its Tillers @ProTractor02496]

@famstructure10 Anna Hallissey — These thoughts didn’t last very long since there was a population boom soon after meaning many women had children. I guess people don’t actually care about puerperal fever or infections. #sticktoyourmorals #petersenpv10

An English landowner and his prize. C.1770

[The Land and Its Tillers @ProTractor02496]

The English Game Laws were a series of legal rights that granted land owners the specific right to hunt game animals. These laws caused rampant poaching amount they non landowners.

[The Land and Its Tillers @ProTractor02496]

Should English nobles have the exclusive right to hunt gane animals?

[The Land and Its Tillers @ProTractor02496]

Peasant and Serf Rebellions were experienced all over Europe. Russia had the most with well over 50 in 5 years. Pugachev’s was the largest from 1773-1775. These revolts were violent and were directed at unfair feudal dues, unjust officials, and unfair pricing of goods.
