So .. where did they go and how did they survive, the working class that is.
If memory serves they went to like one of the hills outside the city proper and waited till their demands were met. As far as survive - they were the farmers, the bakers, the cooks, the soldiers etc. They weren't the ones with a problem surviving
They probably only got one foot out the door before the Patricians noticed the slaves doing some mental math and immediately caving.
how did they survive
Bro, they're the farmers, the producers of food, and chances are they only worked in those cities and didn't live in them. Most of history prior to the bubonic plague had like 90% of the work force as farmers.
Too bad we’re far too pussy to go without Starbucks and Netflix and Amazon prime now.
Speak for yourself. I'm waiting for you fucks to cotton on and become commies
