This act represented an empirical form of passive protest and structural survival of the peasantry in the Romanian Lands facing medieval administrative abuses.
• Historical displacement — The act of fleeing into exile and its result; an archaic and regional form for the process of displacement or voluntary and forced relocation from one's native village hearth.
