A quick definition of carucage:

Term: CARUCAGE

Definition: Carucage was a tax that was imposed on either the amount of land that could be plowed by a team of oxen in a year or on the number of plows used on the land. It was a tax that was used in the past.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Carucage (kar-uh-kij) is a historical tax that was imposed on either the plows used on the land or on a carucate (an area of land that could be plowed by one plow team in a year).

Example: In medieval England, carucage was a common tax that was levied on landowners. For example, if a landowner had five plows working on their land, they would have to pay a carucage tax for each plow.

Explanation: This example illustrates how carucage was a tax on the plows used on the land. The more plows a landowner had, the more tax they would have to pay. This tax was used to fund various projects, such as building roads or supporting the king's military campaigns.

Example: Another example of carucage is the tax that was imposed on a carucate of land. For instance, if a landowner had a carucate of land that could be plowed by one plow team in a year, they would have to pay a carucage tax for that land.

Explanation: This example shows how carucage was also a tax on the amount of land that could be plowed by one plow team in a year. The tax was based on the productivity of the land, and landowners had to pay it regardless of whether they actually used a plow on the land or not.

Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
