Storyboard Text
- Feudalism was based on a system of Vasallaje and Feudo, or what is the same in a legal-political relationship on the one hand and as an economic-social relationship.
- feudal systems started from an initial relationship where the king granted fiefdoms to his vassals, in this case nobles.
- On the other hand we have to explain that the concession of fiefdoms or territories that the monarch granted to the nobles or vassals
- The feudal ones could be rights granted by a gentleman or they could be arable lands, forests, towns, farms, towns or villages, etc.
- In the Middle Ages the fiefdoms were delimited by fortresses or castles.
- The fiefdoms were conceived as an economic and production unit
- In this case the vassal was called servants.
- One of the features that characterizes feudalism is that the nobility, the dominant social class
- exercises an exclusive monopoly of law and justice.
- This means that only members of the nobility could impose the law and justice.
- En la edad media, la sociedad se estableció conforme a tres estamentos bien diferenciados: Nobles, Clero y Campesinos.
- The noble vassals, who in turn were lords of the serfs and the serfs, who were mere laborers of their lord's lands.
