LOCAL CUSTOMS AND MANNERS
There are manners to think about when we eat with our families or other customers. In the past few years time, people were eating with their
hands and diners were shared communal dishes. Many years have past quickly and we developed our ways of eating. We now have a fork, a
spoon and a knife.
The rich people can have lots of food but the people who are not that rich has to eat a loaf of bread for breakfast, lunch or dinner. In the
past times, people didn’t have any table manners at all but we now have table manners that we have to follow when eating. Table manners are
important during eating time. One of the manners is that people shouldn’t burp at the table. When we finish our dish and start to get full,
people start burping everywhere but burping was not aloud. Burping in front of families or customers is a bad manner showing to the family
or the customer. Another table manner is no spitting across the table. If people start spitting all over the place, it will get dirty and spitting
shows bad manner of that people. Spitting is not an appropriate thing to do. We have to be careful of manners during meals. We have these
sauce kind of thing nowadays. We might eat something that we have to dip meat inside. For example, ketchup, salt and other type of thing. In
our times, dipping meat or any other stuff directly into the salt dish is not an appropriate thing to do. Picking ones teeth in front of the people
is inappropriate. We pick our teeth with fingers when something is stuck between ones teeth. It happens when we eat kind of food like meat, and
other things that cause the teeth. If a piece of meat is stuck between a tooth and a tooth, we should take it out using our fingers. Picking ones
teeth in front of the table is showing bad manners. It could also mean that they are kind of bored and maybe the food was not so delicious.
These bad manners is not aloud.
There is another type of manner. Keeping breakfast, lunch or dinner time is very important. We must tell the reason if someone is late. It is
very important to tell the reasons why someone is late for meals and tell the situation of that person.
Slavery: Slaves are still being used. They are mainly used in a house, working, for example cleaners, maids and cooks and they do house
work. Cleaning tables, washing clothes, cook food and so on...
Social Class: There are total of five classes. The top class was the old aristocrat and a wholesaler. Below them, are the rich businessmen
and bankers. Below the rich people, not as rich as businessmen and bankers are there. Below them are the poor people. In the end, there are
slaves. Slaves are at the bottom.

CLOTHING IN ITALY
Men in the Renaissance Age commonly wore boots, pants, shirt, and a vest and a hat. Women in the Renaissance
Age wore shoes, an over and under skirt, a shirt, a bodice and a hat or a snood. They more often pigtailed their long
hair. Wreathe were a mark of beauty to the women. The adults would give the children what they wore when they were

of money would spend all their money on the clothes they wear. The women had well decorated their dresses.

PLACES TO STAY
Private homes
Out in the countryside, there are lots of inns. Inns can be few and far between, so people have to probably
spend at least one night in a stranger’s home. But you don’t have to worry about it because many strangers
and people welcome guest who share rooms with them. The towering pile in front of the house is the dug heap.
But don’t expect comfort inside the large house, because it is made of wood, mud and thatch. When you are
inside, you can see that the house is big because of its barn, too. Many animals like pigs, chickens, and even
cattle share the cold, dark, smelly spaces. The place where we storage corn, straw, and hay are also inside the
house. There is one room inside the house and the family lives in a single room. When it is time for them to
sleep, kids, grandparents, mom and pop crawl into one big bed.
This is the Italian Inn and lots of people stay in Inn. Families and other relatives stay
in here but they have to crawl all together in a small inn because there are so much people.

prepared to please the head and the eye of the house. Italian soups are very rich and very expensive. Some of the
families cannot afford it. And in order to make the head and the eye delighted, we have to generally make various
colors of soups and we have to sweeten the sugar. There are lots of ingredients added into the soup, such as marjoram,
sage, thyme, sweet basil and savory. The soups are resplendence and soups are taken instead of sweets. Italian roasts
are popular to many people as well. The sirloin of beef is one of the most common foods in Italy. The method of
preparing roasts, while resembling the present system, vary from boiling the strong meats first then the roast was
minutely basted with orange juice and rose water and protected with sweet sugar and powdered spices. A salad or
something else was never brought to table in its natural circumstances. Salad has lots of mixtures and it is mixed
with cooked vegetables, and the crest, livers, and even brains of poultry. The taste of the salad depends on the recipe. it
can taste very different. After eating salad, fish was severed next, which were fried and it was sometimes sliced with

HOW TO STAY SAFE AND HEALTHY
No matter where you travel, you always have to keep in mind of safety. Larger cities have a big problem in
safety because there are lots of bandits and rubbers trying to steal things from your bag or from your pocket.
There is a large amount of skilled thieves in the street. You have to keep in mind that the wallet of yours should
be hidden and be kept safe. Always put your back close to you and never let the thieves take your stuff. You
always have to think about thefts. Thieves tend to work together in a group and which means that they get skilled
abilities to steal stuff from your pocket or from your bag. They are cooperate and they can snatch your stuff very
quickly.
People also have to take care of health in Italy. We need to know what kind of food we eat and how healthy the
food is. There are certain food that are unhealthy for you. For example, pizza, hamburgers, soft drinks and other
things. Not only there are unhealthy food, but there are also unhealthy beverages. Lots of unhealthy beverages
are made by certain people and those beverages are taken by people. In order to stay healthy, we need to drink
clean and pure water.
Local meat, poultry, seafood, fruit and vegetables are considered safe to eat.
Diseases and Dangers
The black death happened in the end of the middle ages and it has affected the whole society. Black death had
killed lots of people during the middle ages, and the people later on, were more interested in medicine and
developed the medicine technology.
Crusades
The war that had affected Italy was the crusade. The main reason why this war affected Italy is that this war
started of the pope, who had the strongest and biggest power in the time of the middle ages. However, the war had
failed and lots of people lost their conviction to church and changed their minds to be focusing on humans, not
the church.
