6 Effects Many saw it as God’s punishment Increase in deaths brought a decline in production. As many as 1/3 of Europe’s population died. Prices & wages rose (value of labor increased) Landowners switched from farming to sheep raising (villagers driven off land) Merchants laid off workers & demanded laws to limit wages Peasant & worker uprisings
