The Black Death and other Misfortunes II

What other affects did the Black Death have on people? Well, because people, including laborers, were dieing of plague, there was a work shortage. And landowners didn't have enough people to have their estaites run properly. Many feilds were turned into grazing feilds because they required much less work to run. The wages also rose 80% in England. As you can see, the ecomomy changed quite dramatically when the Black Plague struck. As did many things, but that's for another day.
