How did king Richard II treat the peasant in 1381?
King Richard II was 14 years old at the time and had little involvement with the policy measures that led to the peasant revolt of 1381. The leader of the revolt - Wat Tyler - was however killed by his courtiers during a meeting with Richard. Richard II then allowed the othe peasant leaders to be pursued and executed. That ended the revolt and Richard during his lifetime did nothing to address the peasant's existing situation. The so-called Poll Tax - the reason for the revolt - had its name changed afterwards, but was not abolished.
