Medieval Hungarian society wealth distribution follows Pareto's law with a twist.
The distribution of wealth in Hungarian medieval society follows a power-law pattern, similar to Pareto's law. The wealth of nobles is measured by the number of serf families they own. The Pareto index for this society is 0.92, slightly lower than expected. This suggests that the society lacked a strong economy, leading to a less extreme wealth distribution. The findings support existing models of wealth distribution in societies with independent agents.
