One social norm that was present during this period of history was that political prisoners would be forgotten in prison and would simply spend the rest of their life in prison. This was a product of a poor law and judicial system.

One norm that Dantes really liked was that there where many ships sailing in open water because after he escaped from prison he was rescued by a smuggling ship.
