PLACES

The Revolta de les Germanies was a popular revolt that took place in Mallorca in the early sixteenth century and became a revolution that pitted artisans workers and peasants against the highest echelons of feudal society mainly because of the corruption exploitation and unfair taxation that existed at the time. There are surprising similarities between sixteenth-century Mallorca and current situations and realities which piqued my interest in the subject and has given me the opportunity to present and explain the places where the events occurred and which today have very different meanings.
