What was the dominant political system in the Middle Ages known as?
There was no single political system in use in Europe during the Middle Ages, though most countries were monarchies. Most medieval monarchies had a crown left to a single heir, usually, but not always, the eldest son. There were hereditary monarchies, in which the kingdom was divided among the heirs when the king died. The Kingdom of the Franks is one example. There were monarchies in which the monarch was elected. The Holy Roman Empire was one of these. There were feudal monarchies, in which the central government was weak and the local lords strong. The Kingdom of France was like this for much of its medieval existence. Some medieval governments tended toward being absolute monarchies, in which the king had all the power, though most of these came along after the Middle Ages. The Byzantine Empire retained the old Roman senatorial system until the 13th century. Iceland had a parliament whose seats were possessions a person could sell or leave to his heirs. There were monarchies other than kingdoms and empires, Catalonia, which headed by a count until one of the counts decided he was really a king. For much of the Middle Ages, most of Wales was like this as well. There was a territory headed by the Pope, called the Papal States. There were kingdoms that were no bigger than counties. The early medieval Kingdom of Kent is an example. There were independent republics, such as the Republic of Venice and the Republic of Genoa. Within some of the countries, there were many different political systems in use. In The Holy Roman Empire, there were kingdoms, counties of various types, free cities with republican governments and others.

How did monarchs gain their power and loose their power?

What was the life of a merchant in medieval Europe like?
In order to establish himself as a merchant a man needed to be free from feudal commitments; he needed financial wealth; he needed contacts among the merchant and seafaring community; he needed to know his goods in order to tell good quality from bad quality and avoid being tricked; he needed a place for storage and suitable sales outlets; he needed to know local laws and regulations on the import and export of goods, payment of taxes, prohibited goods and so on. For these reasons it was often the son of a merchant who took over his father's business when he retired or died. This allowed him to simply take over where the father left off, with all the contacts and trade knowledge he needed. We know from the wills of medieval merchants that businesses were often legally transferred to an eldest son.

What is the term for the legal system under which the eldest female inherits all property?
Throughout the history of the world there have been few societies where an eldest daughter would inherit. Female owned property was actually more common in the very ancient world. The term used to describe that system is "matrilineal succession". Although there are a few places around the world where inheritance of titles and property runs along the female line, generally, as "civilization" marched forward female ownership of property was usurped by men. That began to change in the mid-nineteenth century with the passage of married woman property rights acts in England and the United States. In a system of primogeniture the eldest child inherits everything. However, that is generally the eldest male child. In most such systems when there is no male child the title and property pass laterally to a brother of the decedent and then through his line. A system in which that privilege is extended to the eldest female child is called equal primogeniture. You can read more about it at the links below.
