Disaster

Peasants' War

peasants_war

As discontent simmers in the countryside, the plight of the common folk grows increasingly dire. Unjust taxation, oppressive noble masters, and a sense of desperation have driven the peasants to the brink. A swelling tide of anger surged forth, leading to a cataclysmic upheaval that would come to be known as the Peasants' War.
