LAQ questions
what did I learn is that the city is ugly and in the coutrey you have to work all the time 

​what action will i take what action that was in the past.
​
​​what questions do i have the coutrey need to have freenom and back then they have to clean the citys.



Reflection

​ my reflection is that  I learn that most of the citys were not clean and the couthy was   were where people were forsed to do laber to  get food for there masters and they proply don't  have food for themselfes.City back then were more like towns then "citys."Most citys had 300,000 people I don't now that  meny people  is a town ok bye that is my reflection
most medieval city where small and most streets were not paved​ the streets where dirty and muddy most medieval city's had 8,000 people there was a lot of crime​.Most were densely populated.Streets were narrow, unpaved and at times muddy.There where markets in the center of the city inhabitants had the duty to welcome rural folks who visited the city.The space was at a premium in the city.Houses were tiny and clustered closely together.Camber pots were emptied into the streets and the pots where full of poop.Smallpox was endemic, leprosy was common and the victim was segregated.Over 90% of the population of Europe lived in peasant farming communities called villages.we are going to talk about that.Who live there peasants who lived in the villages.They had to do what there masters said like cut the grass or something like that they did that to get food for the rich and almost nothing for them
