HELP PLEASE!!! How did social changes in seventeenth-century eastern Europe compare with those in western Europe during the same period?
Many eastern European peasants moved to western Europe, because the West was wealthier.
Family size grew in western Europe but remained stable in eastern Europe.
Eastern Europe lagged behind in individual freedom, but kept up with western Europe in terms of economic development.
In eastern Europe, most people were still impoverished farm laborers, while in western Europe, income and urbanization rose.
