Patrician Vs Plebeian Class
To intertwine the economic and political difference between the Patricians and the Plebeian class, the economical aspect must first be examined. Plebeian economical environments consisted of property positioned outside of the walls of Rome with most of these properties consisting of farms subjected to various elements that made the properties easily worthless during the early times of Rome. Patrician economical environments consisted of property positioned inside of the walls of Rome, which conceded a higher amount of protection and retained either its’ original value or a close match.
Without the involvement of money, Patrician economical value is worth more than Plebeian economical value in this positional situation. Poverty and Distress

    At the beginning of medieval age in Europe, based on a feeble resource of data, it is believed that between 80‐90% of the economic activity was agriculture. Nearly everybody therefore, earned a living through agriculture as an economic activity. The economic structure prevailing then became known as Feudalism, a term which has come to mean, an economic system based on Lordship (ownership) of vast Land (also known as the ‘manor’ or ‘estate’), owned by a senior lord, who gave the right of cultivation (fief) to a lower rank of people called the vassals, who in return paid a stipulated amount from the harvests or from services rendered or ‐ later on ‐ through money, to the Lord of the manor. The vassals also received security from the lord of the manor. The origin of feudalism is sometimes traced back to the expansion of the Roman Empire.

In the midst of this time period, as poverty ran rampant it led to differing attitudes towards helping the poor as well as the concept of poverty. Poverty was viewed by the upper class as well as humanists as a negative influence to society due to characteristics like idleness which was thought to be the beginning of all evils.
