Re: "destitute well into the 19th century, causing the peasant war in 1653"


I doubt destitution in the 19th century could have caused a war in the 17th.

Gini coefficients and wealth distribution

The Gini coefficients are inaccurate. Denmark does not have a high Gini coefficient, it is one of the most equally wealth distributed countries in the world (not the worst as this article states). It cites a wiki page with Gini coefficients that are completely innacurate (listing Netherlands the most unequal country in the world for wealth distribution). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.192.113.11 (talk) 13:51, 5 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
