in the middle ages, most people lived in villages and work as agricultural laborers, or peasants. every village has a “lord,” and the peasants worked on his land. much of what they produce go to the lord and his family. what little food was leftover goes to support the peasants’ families. in return for their labor, the lord offers them protection. a peasant’s day usually began before sunrise and involves long hours of backbreaking work, which includes plowing the land, planting seeds, and cutting crops for harvesting. the working life of a peasant in the middle ages is usually demanding and exhausting.
