Feudalism was a system that was around in the Middle Ages. How the system worked was kings gave their land to vassal. The vassals would then work the land then the king would give them protection. This same process continued with vassals giving their land to knights who gave land to serfs( lowest class ). See picture above for further explanation. Why did the feudal system develop in the first place? Well the feudal system was created so that large areas of land could be better and easier protected from invaders. Personally I think that it is a good system in order to protect the kingdom but do I think it is fair. No. The serfs hardly got anything while the king was living.....well like a king!
As a walk the battle field I see the red grass
But I will not retreat I will fight for my fallen brothers I am a knight When I fight I fight for my country not bloodshed I am a knight I must remain faithful to thy word I will never retreat I will never stop I fight for family not only my country I am a knight |
