Well there's part of your problem. In a place with an economy like that, all kinds of things that require large markets or significant infrastructure are unavailable. That you can't buy a Resurrection is no more surprising an outcome of such a small scale fragmented economy than that you can't find a caravan of more than three wagons, a suit of plate armor, a shipyard that can build anything bigger than a rowboat, or a decent wine. And if you ignore the economics for those, well....
