They also figured out that crop rotation would prevent loss or failure through disease as when a crop becomes diseased, the diseases often reside at root level, more importantly in the soil itself, and each disease could only infect one particular type of crop, so by planting a different crop in that field the following year, the disease had nothing to infect and would die off, making the same field completely safe for that same crop type when the rotation was complete and it was time to plant that crop type again as three years would have passed by that time and the disease would be long dead. Very smart! And keep in mind that this was all figured out by people that had very poor or even no education whatsoever. They could feed entire towns, but probably couldn't even spell their own name.

Another thing to consider is that these people largely produced a lot of their day to day items on their own. The had to memorize every task they did, be they smith or whatnot typically. Paper or vellum wasn't cheap! And while later in the period a lot more people could read and write than we think, this came closer to the renaissance. Which means smelters and such had to memorize their recipes and methods. That's pretty amazing to me.

"poor education" is a very limited perspective. Humans tend to suffer from familiarity bias and the Dunning-Kruger effect in this as in everything else in life. Even in modern contexts, a formally educated person will often underestimate or outright ignore a lifetime of working experience (e.g. a college-educated engineer who doesn't understand why the veteran machinist is allowing for a certain tolerance in making tool components). Vice versa, a person who has learned their trade through work experience for a lifetime may dismiss or outright reject the usefulness of a formal education (e.g. a veteran machinist used to producing parts of a certain tolerance not understanding why a new computer-designed iteration needs higher precision parts for better performance). Each has its own strengths as well as weaknesses, like being able to organize principles and concepts versus understanding hands-on practical details of how things work or don't work. Modern people in industrialized countries tend to start from a much more formal educational background (even at a grade school level), and they look at people in developing countries or from pre-industrial historical time periods as ignorant -- in terms of formal education. But as OP alluded to, these people with no (formal) education had generations of informally accumulated habits, wisdom, superstitions, etc. This body of knowledge acts as a set of heuristic rules -- not necessarily logically or scientifically rigorous or sometimes even particularly correct, but they are mostly "good enough" for keeping people more fed than hungry, more healthy than hurt, etc. In a world with little to no scientific method, they were still able to figure out which plants and animals were worth cultivating for food, clothing, dyes, medicines, etc. for tens of thousands of years before modern medicine, agriculture, and other sciences were developed (and stopped killing people too frequently through Dunning-Kruger). Just seemingly simple things like how to plant a food crop and bring it successfully to harvest, or ensuring a newborn animal survives, involves a huge amount of knowledge.

Indeed. They were also much more connected to the land than we are and thus developed local innovations with local resources that are quite clever. We finally figured out Roman concrete, but only because we looked at local resources (volcano ash). I mean just because someone can't read or write doesn't mean they don't have a brain. I mean I always think about how I can improve certain things instead of struggling all the time (it's simple but a good analogy: I leave my shoes and keys and wallet in the same spot so I don't have to look for it). In a medieval context you could say carrying things by hand sucks so I make a sled. Well a sled can get snagged on things so I make a cart. Well the cart tips over too easy when loaded down so I make it wider. I don't need to read or write for common sense!

Just to add, Henry VIII would have been His Majesty, not His Royal Highness. Fun fact actually: he was the FIRST monarch of England to adopt the style of “Your Majesty” which is now the standard for (not only) British kings and Queens. He did so in 1519 (a full decade before the dissolution of the monasteries) after Charles V adopted the style of Majesty upon his election as Holy Roman Emperor, who felt that a plain old “Highness” was simply too pedestrian for an Emperor. That prompted Henry and Francis I of France to immediately do the same, because God forbid they ever let anyone one-up them.

Hi, I love the your historic comments, and that you buil historic forms of villages. And ilt's obviously the best village that I have seen among all playthrough I've watchof this game yet. But I found your explanation of farming a bit oversimplified : the revolution in farming of the middle ages, which takes place between the XI and the XIII centuries is not based on the three years crop rotation. There were even some places that keep the two years rotation of the roman... The revolution revolve arround the plough, but especially arround wagons in all their forms. It's the possibility of moving a lot of things that allowed to produce more food. Indeed, thanks to that people can move hay. So they can stock the surplus of grass of spring and summer, and feed the livestock with it in winter (generally in buildings). So they can have much more livestock because the lack of food for it in winter is no longer the limit. And as they now can move the manure to the fields thanks to carts, and as they have more animals, they have better yields, and more people can live on the same surface. (more manure means more minerals and nitrogen for plants ) Feeding livestock in building also allow that all the dung is collected and put in the fields rather than scattered in meadows and along the roads like it was before (the animals were put on meadows to eat during the day, then move to fields (in fallow) the night so a little bit of nutrients is move from meadow to fiels, bettering the yield) Meanwhile, the plough allowed one familly to farm a greater surface, and as the yields were better, not only farmers were better feed, but they can sell more of it, allowing artisans to flourish. Indeed, before this revolution,each familly needed to farm all year just to feed herself, and nobles, artisans and all type of people that don't produce they own food needed slaves and plundering of neighbouring cities or region to live. Another benefit of the plough, is to allow farming to extend on lands that were unusable before (soil too heavy, too damp, too poor for the old roman system of farming), creating a movement of extension of somes villages, and especially a movement of colonisation of large swathes of land that were unusable without this revolution. Then only, this system improve with the three years rotation, were the soil were not too poor. That allow to use fields to produce grain two third of the time rather than half of it. PS : before they were not wagon and cart able to move such mass, because they were attach to animals in a way that strangle them. That's why the romans needed four horses on they chariots, while after only two horses are enough for a whole wagon. My source is a book (in French) titled "Histoire des agricultures du monde" (history of world's farming systems) by Marcel Mazoyer and Laurence Roudart

True, but I’m pretty sure there were three very notable inventions that made it possible for societies to grow and develop into one with a monetary system once more. This process eventually caused societies to become an agrarian urbanism society. Sure, there was a groundbreaking new plough, but only in combination with what OPB described as the crop rotation (instead of the two-yearly crop rotation) and the often forgotten possibilities for deforestation and draining of swamp and other bogland would allow for there to be more space for properly designated land for agriculture. One last thing I’ve also not seen either of you mention is that instead of using oxes they started using horses for ploughing. Horses can dig way deeper into the ground to assure for seeds to be planted without failure. As a result of all of these inventions societies would be able to develop into those with more specialized varieties in work, like I’ve described at the start of this message. I hope that this is helpful and clears everything up a little bit more.

@@thitalo1239 Indeed, this revolution comes from a lot of innovation (or generalized use of very rarely used old inventions), but I have summarized 70 pages of one book in some lines, so it's very short... And all of this inventions work together, so I have only talk about the majors ones, and those that seems important to me in the context of the ostseelung. (I don't now how to write it exactly, I don't speak German) Firstly, they were a lot of land with already established farms, and those were often the latest to adopt the new system. Indeed this new system was very costly and so the first places to implement it were villages along swamps or forests that could have a huge benefit from it by extending their farmlands, and thus justify the investissement. Then there were colonies established by lords, wealthy people and monks on their lands unused untill then (great swamps, forest... the Flanders are a great example, even if it is quite peculiar as this was a gain on sea). After that some people did the same on other lands, it's probably the case of the ostseelung (but I don't really know). I know it's the case for Prussia under the Teutonic Order for example. And finally regioins were all the lands were already used switched to the new system. This took way more time because those investement were not justify by a possible expansion of farms, and especially there were many traditions and laws that had to be changed, or even all the fields had to be redesign, because before the plough, it was better to have rather small square field, and with the plough long and narrow fields are better. So I agree with you, to extend to this new places, a lot of deforestation had to take place, but also the draining of swamps. For the latter, it was almost unprofitbale to do it without plough, so I only say that the plough allowed to extend on otherwise too damp soils. And it's a grreat example of inventions that work together. For the horses that replace the oxes, it vary a lot from farm to farm. Horses are better because they are way more powerful, but when tractors arrived they were still oxes or even simple cows used to plough, and not only horses. So it's absolutely not something central. For the three years rotation, the book that I mention explain that at start people continue with the two years rotation for a while, before switching to three years rotation. It is wrote that three years rotation start during the XIII century while the farming revolution started during the XI century. During the XIV it was still the most common rotation, and it still exist during the XVII. So the two years rotation remained during several centuries even if the three year rotation was better on all points (exept on very poor soil) : less weeds, more grain on the same surface, it spreads the work on the fields, and it profit more of the manure. The book says that the traditions and laws can slow the adoption of the three year rotation, that it need to redesign the fields and redistribute them to the different families, and as long as the population hasn't grow enough to need to produce more on the same surface, it's useless. Another reason is that for the three years rotation to be better, it need to have enough livestock, and it's a very long process to increase the density of it, especially when all of excess animals are sold to new colonies so they can form they livestock. Finally, the plough by itself isn't enough, to work properly it need harrows and roller. To have enough, hay you need the great scythe, but also the wagon to transport it. Then you need stables to feed your animals with the hay and collect manure. You also need a cart to move the manure to the fields. For all of those carts, wagons, plough, harrows, and rollers, you need to have the new way to attach those to your animals without strangling them. And all of those inventions are the srict minimum to have the new system, and without one of them, either it didn't work, or it's very impractical. Funnily, the most symbolic of them, the plough, was invented before Christ, as the great scythe...

As an American we didn't really cover crop rotation in the more medieval sense of leaving fields fallow. But growing up in a rural area I did end up learning about the more George Washington Carver method of Crop Rotation. Where one of his big contributions to agriculture was basically coming up with a way to keep fields productive every year by changing what is actually planted in it. As various crops needed different nutrients and produced different waste into the soil. So you'd basically have Crop A depleted Nutrient A and creates Nutrient B, Crop B uses the new Nutrient B in the soil and produces Nutrient C, Crop C uses the new Nutrient C and produces Nutrient D, Crop D uses Nutrient D and produces Nutrient E. Crop E uses the new Nutrient E and produces Nutrient A, and have a 5 year closed loop where every year is productive. Really fascinating sort of stuff. But sadly most people know George Washington Carver for one thing he almost certainly was not in any way involved in "Inventing peanut butter". Which actually is a matter of historical contention about who did because there were three claims and patents filed within months of each other all claiming to have created processes for it. From Hiram Maxim (Yes the Maxim Machinegun Maxim, another fascinating figure who basically was a mad genius scientist like you'd see in a comic book with his over the top applications and the sheer variety of things you need to do) to a former lab assistant of Maxim's, and one other who's status I forget at the moment. But all seemed to have come at it independently at roughly the same time.

@@thebigree6155 Honestly a tricky question! Hmm, I might recommend starting with one of those permaculture design cert. courses- try to find a good one that isn't expensive (if it's too bougie that's a sign they don't *get* it lol), might be a good place to start. Andrew Millison on youtube has some great, great videos on all matters related to the subject, though obviously hands-on experience is better than a KZitem download. Permaculture is a really wide catchall term for a lot of different ideologies on regenerative/sustainable land management and agriculture so if it's a big passion for you in a career type way, you can find traditional educational tracks that deal with those larger concepts as a field of study, usually to do with macrobiology (land management, agriculture, yadda yadda, I'm not well-versed with that level of education.) When it comes to getting gardening, steading, and farm experience, there's always the famous WOOFing system, just do your research and don't work for free. Researching steads, farms, and other similar operations near you is a great way to find opportunities for experience as well. Additionally, finding some old people (who aren't jackasses) who have been doing it for a long time and spending some time with them is a super good way to get access to generational experience. A healthy mix of science, personal experience, generational experience, creativity, and time in front of a blackboard will turn you into a lean, mean, gardening machine in like a couple years or so- it's a rabbit hole but it's all super interesting and the community *I've* encountered are super forthcoming and excited to share what they know. Kinda spammy and unorganized advise but maybe it'll help!

Something to consider is the social standing of your occupations. The Millers were usually placed further from town and seen as dishonest and deceitful people, supposedly engaging in theivery.

I think you could've gotten a cleaner layout of the fields by the mill if you'd put in a circle shaped path around the mill so that the field boundaries would adhere to it

Maybe level up to have 2 level 2 homes that way you can convert one to a brewery and another to a shoe maker. Agree a tavern maybe next to the market would be good then a malt house that way the village should have all it needs with the exception of either a communal bakery or convert another home to a bakery for the making bread.

To get more weapons you could upgrade 1 house to level 2 and install a fletcher in it as an artisan to make bows. This would give you a ranged unit to support your spears.

Awesome job my friend. Finally someone is trying to discuss real history of urbanisation with a help of this gorgeous city builder game. Greetings from your eastern neighbour. P.s. We do have lots of such round villages in Poland that are from XI-XIV c. Those were very diverse processes of founding settlements in here and at schools we learned of seven main types (shapes) of villages on todays Polish soil. Round village was one of them.

I think keeping the town center open is the best idea, with pasture or market or something similar, but if beneficial for game mechanics as long as the tavern isn’t too large it would be okay

"Don't Mess with Texas. We will destroy you!" - Glad word's gotten around. :D Enjoying the informative gameplay. I am looking to incorporate some aspects of the village design from this game into my Medieval Dynasty play (particularly vegetable gardens in back yards and villages having larger fields for grain crops, as well as small animal pens behind homes). Thanks for sharing! A-Train from Dallas, Texas, USA! :D

I will have to play Kingdom Come: Deliverance again some time and check whether any of the locations there also follow the Rundling design. I remember that Skalitz had its church outside the town, but other than that I don't remember it being particularly round. Also, the one German family lived among the Bohemians. Maybe I can manage to find a console command that lets me fly, so I can get an aerial view.

One of the most important reason for the farmers having long thin fields to maintain that you did not mention is the fact that a ox and plow team is difficult to turn. If you had a square field you would have to keep doing all the work of turning the plow (Which kinda shows im a funny way the game struggled with it in the amall fields) but if you had a long thin field you might only have to do it a couple of times while it was your turn with the ox and plow.

Was land enclosure a thing in Germany? As in the combining of many smaller peasant farms into one or two large enclosed farms. It caused a lot of strife in England but is ultimately more efficient and allowed peasants to move to the cities and work in factories, although obviously over many centuries
