Feudal peasants actually got a decent amount of time off, because the landlords understood that they had to keep the masses happy. Medieval peasants had an average of like four months of vacation time a year. Basically, the ruling class knew that the only thing stopping the peasants from marching up to the castle with pitchforks was the peasants’ own sense of civility.
My gut says medieval peasants had to use that time on chores. Where can I read about how medieval peasants had like, a good time? And that they weren’t unhappy enough to kill their Lords?
