People living outside the monasteries during the medieval period often engaged in agricultural work, tending to fields and livestock, which was essential for sustenance. Many were part of feudal systems, serving local lords in exchange for protection and land. Communities were typically organized around villages, where trade, craftwork, and communal activities played vital roles in daily life. Religion also influenced their lives, with local churches serving as centers for worship and social gatherings.

Culture is the arts, education, attitudes, morals, and beliefs of people who live in a region. Environment can affect the culture of people and how they live by developing distinct ways of life because of limited outside sources influencing the way of life. In Ghana the people are very traditional and have limited outside influence on their culture.
Different orders were founded for different purposes, and monasteries were built for those purposes, although some evolved into other purposes. Some monasteries were simply places were religious people could devote their lives to prayer, as more than a few did. Kings sometimes abdicated and went to live in monasteries, and queens did even more often. Some were places where people who were in trouble or abused could seek refuge. The royal governments were reluctant to risk removing people from sanctuary because doing so could mean excommunication to the people involved, and an excommunicated king's vassals were usually freed from their oaths of allegiance, so the life and power of the king would be at stake. Some were hospitals, as we know them, and others were hostels, or places people on pilgrimage could stay. Some monasteries were devoted to transcribing books, or even specifically to transcribing bibles. Monasteries were places where some people could get educations. This is particularly true of people who were not to go to ordinary schools, and this included members of royal families because they were safer in monasteries than they would be in schools. Some monasteries became focused on the production of specific foods, such as cheese, wine or beer. Perhaps other people could add more to this.
Monasteries were a place for individuals to live ascetic lives away from the outside 'world' that are dedicated to Christian worship. Monastic living is not a Biblical principle.
