Usage examples of "short-tailed sheep" in English with translation to Russian

<>
For example, among the Greenland Norse - a competitive rank society - what the chiefs really wanted is more followers and more sheep and more resources to outcompete the neighboring chiefs. And that led the chiefs to do what's called flogging the land: overstocking the land, forcing tenant farmers into dependency. And that made the chiefs powerful in the short run, but led to the society's collapse in the long run. Например, среди норвежцев Гренландии - в обществе с конкурентной иерархией - вожди хотели иметь больше последователей, больше овец и больше ресурсов, чтобы переиграть соседних вождей. И это привело к тому, что вожди стали истощать земли, создавая слишком большие запасы, вынуждая фермеров-арендаторов впадать в зависимость. Это сделало этих вождей сильными в краткие сроки, но привело к краху общества в долгосрочной перспективе.
