Was the feudal system humane

Answer 1

No, it was not, because it gave rights over land to a tiny minority at the expense of the vast majority. Lords owned the land and any peasants or serfs who lived on it. Peasants were allowed to till the land in exchange for a substantial portion of their harvest, which had to be surrendered as tax to the landowner (landlord). Lords, on the other hand essentially did nothing. Remittances forced from peasants were used either to support lavish lifestyles or to purchase more land through which they could exploit even more serfs.

The feudal system was also inhumane in the sense that it was hereditary. People had no hope of progressing beyond the positions held by their parents. In this manner, the system condemned many to perpetual poverty while maintaining undeserved privileges for a few.
