Feudalism was a system that provided a distribution of power from the king down to the lowest levels of society, what was called the feudal pyramid. This worked fairly well to provide security for the farmers and feudal lords, but it was difficult for larger nations to unify. Eventually, large nations developed strong central governments, and feudalism ceased to have a reason to exist. Even for the local lords, it was much easier to free the serfs and charge rent.

Feudalism didn't just effect Europe socially, it was Europe's government and social class system until the end of the middle ages. It kept lords in power no matter what, and prevented the formation of anything even close to a middle class.
