Most people think the Black Death was Europe's greatest catastrophe. But there's a problem with that story—it was actually the greatest wealth redistribution in human history.
This video reveals how demographic collapse accidentally created Europe's first labor market, transformed powerless serfs into negotiating workers, and forced feudal lords to compete for peasants instead of controlling them. The plague didn't destroy medieval society—it rebuilt it from the ground up, creating the economic foundations that would eventually become capitalism.
The same demographic mathematics that transformed medieval Europe are operating again today. Understanding this pattern isn't just history—it's economic survival in an age of demographic transition.
