Best Answer

feudalism is the order that the king would supply land to barons who then supplied land to knights and then to peasants. In turn the peasants gave money and land to the knights and so on. Feudalism was based on the idea that everyone knew everyone else's position. It declined because these bonds began to break. People began to move to cities and make money rather then plant crops. The black death also killed much of the peasants therefore the remainder had more bargaining power.
