The ramifications of this were huge, the feudal system introduced by the Norman on their invasion of England was stripped of power as peasants were now asking for payment because the demand for workers in agriculture. Aswell as this the Black Death (which was a combination of both the Bubonic Plague and pneumonic plague) is said to have been an indirect cause of the Peasants revolt in 1381.
