The medieval manors were meant to be as self-sufficient as possible. Over time, the people wanted more things that couldn't be made locally i.e. within the manor and they became less self sufficient because they decided to go other places to get the things they wanted.

So I would say False.

Answer:

True, Medieval manors were nearly self-sufficient.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • During the early middle ages, the manors were mostly self-sufficient.
  • Many peasants never went more than a few miles from their villages.
  • The peasants who lived the villages produced almost everything of their need clothes, food, furniture, and other necessary tools.
  • They had no knowledge and no schooling in the larger outside world.
  • A typical manor included cottages and huts clustered close together in the villages.
