What happened on 16th June 1381?

Answer 1

On June 16, 1381, the Peasants' Revolt in England reached a significant turning point as rebels, led by Wat Tyler, marched into London. They demanded an end to serfdom and oppressive taxation, particularly in response to the Poll Tax. The revolt culminated in confrontations with the ruling class, including King Richard II, who attempted to negotiate with the rebels. However, the uprising was ultimately suppressed, leading to the execution of its leaders and a return to feudal order.
