Just had the disturbing realization that my grandparents' village would rank as one of the top 5 biggest cities in Europe during the 700s
Constantinople (~400,000 - 500,000)Córdoba (~100,000)Rome (~30,000 - 50,000)Naples (~30,000)Paris (~20,000 - 30,000)
That's not really a village unless you're from China
