How crimes were regarded varied, of course, from country to country and from time to time.

In 12th century England, as an example, there were four capital crimes, which were murder, treason, arson, and rape.

Most lesser crimes were categorized according to some criterion of value. For example, stealing a cow was a worse crime than stealing some hen's eggs.

And of course, the person who asked the question is the only one who know what is meant by non-serious.
