King
The king called someone and gave them land.
I will put all your land away from other lords land.
Lord
The lord gave a small manor to a noble so they can run that part of the land. The noble got peasants to work that manor.
Lord
Okay, I will give you a small manor for your to govern. You should get some peasants to work for you, but you will have to swear an oath.
Noble
Yes sir.
The Noble swore an Oath that he would be loyal to the lord at all times and would never betray him.

Noble
I swear that i will be loyal to you, my lord and never betray you.

The Noble got a few peasants to work for him and his manor so that they can make some tax and pay the revenue to the king. But first they would all have to swear an oath.

The noble gave another part of his part of the land to a knight so that the knight would be loyal and fight for the noble at all times.
