Our government here is feudalism. Some of our laws are anyone who infringes the king, will have to pay a fine, or go to court. If you kill someone else, you could be sentenced to death, or if you steal, you will lose a few fingers or pay a fine. Recently, a law was made to stop all punishment towards the messenger when he delivered any bad news. I definitely agree with the laws for anyone who steals of kills. Maybe after their punishment, they will know better next time not to do it again. I don't really agree with the law with the king. Unless they are threatening to kill. But if they just speak rude words, then I don't see any harm. I am a bishop, and go to the church here at the castle. So far there haven't been any real conflicts happening. A young boy tried stealing a fish, but he didn't get very far. Since he wasn't of age to be punished, his parents were given a fine to pay.
