How did deflation doom the debt ridden farmers

for a "civilization", you will need a set of laws or codes. Without them, people will constantly quarrel, because everybody has their own thinking of what is "right'. With a set law, however, there is a general 'right" that is agreed upon by most people and would be followed by all people of that particular land. Without the code, there wouldn't be a civilization.
