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.
