∙ 12y agoKing Edward III, who ruled England at the time, was powerless to do anything about the progress of the Black Death. He did act on the effects of it, however, by enacting a law called the Ordinance of Laborers, in 1349. This law fixed prices and wages, prohibited lords from enticing other lords' serfs away from them, required everyone under 60 to work, and outlawed collective bargaining.
There is a link below to an article on the Ordinance of Laborers.
There were, of course, many other kings in Europe if that time, and each handled the situation in his own way.
