- Hey, would you like to know what feudalism was like in Europe?
- Oh, that could be very interesting, tell me more.
- This what the system that Europe used in the middle age, in which the nobility held lands from the Crown in exchange of money for military service, and vassals were in turn tenants of the nobles
- Also, there were a lot features that characterized this period, for example: The ‘King’ was at the top of the society and he was quite powerless. Below him was placed the ‘Feudal Lord’. Then came the ‘Vassels’ or ‘Independent Farmers’. They could resort to independent profession and move from one place to another according to their own hill.
- There was also some causes that began this system, in this case the people searched for forces that would offer them protection. And local rulers developed into a more reliable power than kings.
- An in the end there was the effects, which were creation of very localised groups of communities which owed loyalty to a one lord who exercised absolute authority in his domain.
- fiefs were often hereditary, a permanent class divide was established, and monarchs could distribute land for political purposes, fragmenting a noble's holdings or distancing him from the court.
- And that´s it, did you liked?
- Yes, the system of feudalism changed the way everyone saw the world, thank you very much for the explanation.
