Despite usually being poor, why were peasants considered valuable members of society? (points : 1) they grew the food necessary for others to live. the chinese were taught to value poor people. their lives were usually so short that they were considered precious. peasants were not considered valuable members of society.

The answer is because they grew the food. All humans require food, thus, there needs to be people who gather the food and where does that food come from? The peasants! Any empire, army, and country needs workers to grow food for their leaders, the soldiers, and everyone else. Any military, no matter how many men, the strength or skill of them cannot fight without food. No empire cannot survive and keep its citizens alive without food. Likewise, no country can survive without any food.
