When and where was it the worst place to live? I know the most straightforward answer would be in a warzone or any time period where slaves were kept, but I'm curious about where the average bloke had it the worst.

My vote goes to the first agricultural settlements
>Have to work the fields with extremely primitive tools and with near wild seed stock
>Very poor nutrition due to most food being starchy crops
>No one really understands what we're doing
>Crowd diseases develop and strike for perhaps the first time in history
>You literally live worse than yout hunter-gatherer grandparents but cannot stop because by now there's so much people they will all starve to death if the harvest fails

On top of this I'd also argue that anywhere in Italy during the Bubonic Plague, as well as being a Native American (maybe Aztecs) during the Great Dying caused by smallpox and Spanish subjugation

I think the worst place in the modern world has to be Goma, a Congolese city bordering Rwanda
>center of a massive refugee crisis following the Rwandan Genocide, the refugees being the people who had committed the genocide rather than the victims
>epicenter of first and second Congo wars
>half destroyed by a volcano
>surrounding countryside is filled with child-killing invisible poison death clouds
>located on the shore of a lake that will probably explode and kill everyone
>>
For more recent history
>China in the Cultural Revolution
>Belarus or Poland in WW2
>Aleppo, or any populated city in Syria now
>North Korean countryside

Older history
>Anywhere the Mongols targeted
>Wallachia with Vlad the Impaler
>Native Americans when they were at war with eachother or the colonists
>One of the small tribes the Aztec slaughtered
