Effects on the Black Death, 9/20

The Black Death turned European life upside down, affecting every everything possible, except for the royal bloodline. The Ordinace of Labors states that was working in a profession they had not experience with because those who were trained in such profession were already dead for the plague. Everyone was equal in the fact that the plague spared no one. Everyone was affected. Villages were segregated, and families were divided.

Coming from Jean Froissart; on the Jagueariem political and social problems arose. Political leaders were no longer safe from the problems of the people, and there were many peasant revolts. There were gathering, with missing counsel members more often than not. Kinghts entered the rooms of women with families, violated the women, than slaughtered everyone.

Unfortunately, there cannot be a problem in Europe without some group, or party blaming the Jewish people. In this situation entire neighborhood of Jews were arrested, and tortured until a "confession" was reached. After the confessions were reached, the Jews were either burned, or butchered. There was one community however, Strasburg, that tried to save the Jews, but a mob overthrew them, and there was no such group.
