The collapse of centralized governments in the early Middle Ages created a power vacuum, leading to local lords and elites asserting control over land and resources. In the absence of strong central authority, these lords offered protection to peasants in exchange for labor and loyalty, establishing a system of mutual obligations. This decentralized structure fostered the rise of feudalism, where social hierarchy became defined by land ownership and vassalage, as communities relied on local lords for security and governance. Consequently, feudalism emerged as a pragmatic solution to the instability and insecurity of the post-collapse era.
Feudalism Every sovereign state
Feudalism and manorialism are interconnected systems of medieval Europe, with feudalism referring to the social and political hierarchy based on land ownership and loyalty, while manorialism describes the economic structure that supported it. In feudalism, lords granted land (fiefs) to vassals in exchange for military service and loyalty, whereas manorialism focused on the organization of agricultural production on a lord's manor, where peasants worked the land. Essentially, manorialism was the economic foundation that enabled the feudal system to function, as it provided the resources and labor necessary for sustaining the feudal society.

Vassalage is the relationship between the feudal lord and his vassal. Kings had higher lords as vassals, and higher lords had lower lords as vassals. The practice was called subinfeudation.
During the Middle Ages people lived by farming, under a system called feudalism. Feudalism was based on the ownership of land. After the fall of the Western Roman Empire, Europe was divided into small kingdoms, but real power belonged to local landowners. Central government was weak and people were often threatened by war. Nobles fought to defend their land and win more. People looked for defence, so freemen placed themselves under the protection of more powerful freemen. Those who did so were called vassals. That was how vassalage formed.
Noble meant belonging to the upper class of society in the Middle Ages, during Feudalism. A nobleman had land as his property and this ownership of land was the base of Feudalism. They got the land from the king and they paid homage to the king and offered their service. If they had a land big enough, they also gaveland to others, making them their vassals. The 'chain' of vassalage kept the nobility together. Noble also means sy of high character and qualities, or something splendid as an adjective.
Born free; not born in vassalage; inheriting freedom.
