How did feudalism work in Europe during the Middle Ages?

Feudalism was a social system where the lesser ranks of society owed certain duties directly to their immediate superiors, who owed duties to their immediate superiors and so on up to the king, who was the ultimate superior. At each level, the inferiors also received the benefit of the duties owed to them by their superiors. These rights and responsibilities were hereditary. Thus a peasant, at the lowest level of society, owed a duty of work to the lord of the manor to which he was attached (he was obliged to labour on the fields for the profit of the lord) but the lord owned a corresponding duty of protection to the peasant (he was obliged to defend the manor and its people in case of attack).
