Feudal System
Storyboard Text
- The Freemen
- Whew! The knight never said that this work was so difficult on a nice, hot, summer day!
- The Serfs
- You always believe you can no matter how many times I tell you. We are born into our class!
- One day, I will be king, or even a noble or a kight!
- The Knights
- This is my manor. I own the serfs you might have seen earlier , & the freeman is working for me, as I speak.
- The freemen, like the man here, paid the knights/nobles to farm land. They moved wherever/whenever they pleased.
- The Nobles & Lords
- Welcome to my humble abode, one of the many 3/4 land/feifs of the king.
- The serfs were linked to thier current lord, unable to leave. They made up most of the pesants, but were not enslaved. Serfs got food, protection, & shelter to farm the land & pay rent. They also had the oportunity to farm their own land 4/7 days of the week.
- The Kings
- We are the King & Queen who made the laws & owned the country.
- The knights got feifs, another word for plots of land, & serfs in return for homage & military service.They respected women & their lords & went to church often. The serfs lived in villages, but the knights got to live in thier own manors & castles.
- The Feudal System Pyramid
- The KIng
- The lods/nobles were the ones with the greatest power, other than the king. They owned lots of land, & got feifs & pesants for loyalty & military aid. They were masters to knights & many serfs, & had the most land of the three.
- The king gave 3/4 of his land to churches & lords/nobleswho swore an oath to be forever loyal to him.
- But it was mostly me.
- This is the Feudal system. Now you know how hard/easy it must have been to live in the Medieval Times.
- The Lords & Nobles
- The Knights
