the rich people were higher up and were well.... richer. they had facilities and food and shelter
Rich people often lived longer because at least they had proper food. Poor people were malnutritioned and had crap living quarters. Rich people had good houses to live in and water to wash in.

∙ 15y agoThe rich were most likely kings, queens, knights, lords , nobles and clergy they all most likely had bigger homes better jobs and opportunity respected more (well men were )Compared to serfs they did everything thought they did not get paid enough for all of there work they also were used as defense in a event that they were running out of knights so the sent them out though they were inexperienced,they didn't have weapons or armor( maybe a pitch fork)and were not trained
