  1. I would not and I would want to live in the Medieval Times. some reasons why I wouldn't want to are because there are a lot of death penalties that are really painful. Also because there wasn't any internet back then and I like how my life is now. The reasons why I would want to live in thew Medieval Times is because it looks different then how life is now andI would like to experience something different. I would like to see how king Henri got that sword out of a rock.

  2. I wouldn't want to live in the middle ages because if you don't listen to the king or anyone who has more power than you, you could be tortured to death. I would also not like to live in that time because you will never be really safe because there are a lot of wars

  3. I wouldn't want to live in the medieval times because of how kids were treated like dirt and how women weren't treated the best. I also wouldn't want to grow up to 14 or 15 and then be sent off to train to be a knight and end up dying in a dumb war. They did things badly back then and wouldn't want to be there when a kingdom gets overruled by enemies and I don't know, it just seems really un-fun to live at that time.

  4. I wouldn't want to live in the medieval times. The women back then weren't treaded the same as the men.The women weren't treaded right and the men had all the power over them. If you got in trouble, they would sentence you to death. In this day in age, you would just get punished. It isn;t also the best time for good health. A lot of people back then get diseases and doctors didn't know how to cur it, so most of them died. I think it would be a great experience to see there society and how they lived but I don't think I would be able to live all my life there.

  5. I would not want to live in the medieval times because I find that period of time corrupt. The villages were unhygienic, which resulted sicknesses like the black plague, which wiped out most of the human population. There were no equal rights, and punishment for small things for gruesome and unholy, even though the people on top like the kings and queens are with the Catholic church and yet are spoiled with wealth and power. The medieval times wouldn't be the place for me.

  6. Well I would want to both,I will start with why I would't want to live there because that time period was really corrupt,what I mean is they're were so many diseases and sicknesses and the people were treated like peasents they would have to pay huge taxes and people needed money to provide for their families and it was so dirty and dangerous on the streets.The reason I would want to live in the medieval times is because if I had royalty in my family I would of had so much power I would have been treated like a king,sounds a little selfish but common who wouldn't want power.

  7. Never would I want to live in the medieval times, I don't think anyone would. Where do I start? The people were dirty, everyone needed to work a lot just to stay alive. If you weren't with the church, you would be punished. It was extremely dangerous back then. Just look at how many people died from the black plague. Judging from the stories, the kings were rude and greedy, they were not even good leaders. I mean, even the popes were bad leaders. Without electronics, I wonder how it was possible that children could entertain themselves. The punishments for committing a crime overflowed with injustice. For these reasons, I would never, ever, want to live in the medieval times.

  8. I would never want to live in the medieval times because there's a lot of death penalties and just by looking at the pictures it looks very painful. Also because there isn't any social media or internet so I don't know how I would be able to live! If you would follow a rule from the church you would probably be killed in an instant. That's why I wouldn't want to live in the medieval times because then you are forced to follow rules that you may not like, and I believe that everyone should have the rights to believe in what they want to believe in.

  9. I wouldn't want to live in the medieval times at all. The women were treated poorly and given no respect.There was also a lot of deaths inthe medieval times, like the black plague and people died because of the death penalties. The death penalties back then look really severe, I find it's unfair that if you don't follow a rulle from the church you have to go through a painful death. I also probaby wouldn't be able to follow every single command the church makes and I wouldn't want to be slowly killed for something I did wrong. That's why would'nt want to live in the medieval times.

  10. I wouldn't like to live in the medieval times because it would be very painful and if u don't listen to the king he can do anything he wants with you. Also there were no electronics in the medieval times, so if I was in danger I wouldn't be able to call anyone or text anyone. In the medieval times there were a lot of death penalties as well. If I lived in the medieval times I would have to obey the king and accept all punishment I may receive.

  11. I wouldn't want to live in the medieval times because you have no freedom of doing what you want. You need to follow the rules of the king and if you don't you get killed for it which is unfair. There were a lot of wars and death penalties back then which isn't good and there was also no electronics.

  12. I would not want to be alive during the middle ages because there were many bacterial diseases and very easy at a young age. I personally might just to see how the half lived back then and see King Arthur. It would be a great experience but I would rather staying in this day and age.

  13. I wouldn't like to live in the medieval times because of the black plague ( rat disease). In that time it'd be easy to die because of religion beliefs and diseases. It'd be nice to go but not for too long so that I can live and not get tortured or killed because of being Atheist.

  14. NO WAYYYYYYYY, because people cant have an opinion, people are not free. if someone doesn't listen, there are going to die, there not the most horrible rules... but I love living and being free, I don't want to change that.

  15. I would not and I would want to live in the Medieval Times. It really depends on what's your rank on their society, for example if I was a peasant I would not want to live there but if I was a rich wealthy man, or a king I would definitely live there. It really depends on the way you look at it, but to sum it all up I wouldn't want to live in that time period because they don't have our modern technology and Theresa lot of disease.
