No, not everyone prospered in the Middle Ages. For example, many people were starving and poor. Also, the Jews did not prosper because the Christians treated them harshly. They were targets of violence, their lords took their land whenever, and the only job they could have was money lending and banking. Christians were forbidden to do this job because they were taught by the church that charging money for loans would make God look down upon them and curse them.

About 90% of the population were serfs and owed their lives to the manor. There wasn’t a system to improve life if you were born into serfdom and many died young fighting the nobility wars.
