Document Summary
Urbanizaion is the coninuing step as a result to privaizaion of rural land (as menioned in the previous paragraph) Public gatherings were harder to organize, afecing the link between families within a community in a negaive way. Urbanizaion changed the living spaces of people as they started to move into the city, meaning that people had to cope with crowdedness and unsanitary condiions in the city. Upper, middle and lower classes were diferent classes that were formed as a result of low class workers having to live in their own sort of neighborhood. The reason being is because the low class workers did not have money to aford what the upper class could aford. As a result, the diferent classes formed due to the need of low class workers to live in cheaply built homes, whereas wealthy industrialists would be able to aford beter living condiions. Courtyards were built to funcion as a communal backyard for gatherings.
