feudal lords
Manors were owned by Lords in English or Seigneurs in French and it was a segment of the feudal system that existed in Central and Western Europe during the middle ages
The hundred years' war weakened the feudal system because it helped shift power from lords to monarchs to commoners. Knights and castles were less useful because gunpowder and longbows were invented. Also a new feeling of nationalism shifted power away from lords
The king would give the lords more land while the lords added more knights to the kings army.
In the feudal system, lords received land, known as fiefs, from the king in exchange for their loyalty and military service. This land allowed them to generate income through agriculture and rent from peasants who worked it. Additionally, lords held judicial authority over their lands, enabling them to govern and administer justice within their domains. This system created a hierarchical structure that defined social and political relationships during the Middle Ages.

During the Middle Ages, the growth of towns weakened the feudal system in several crucial ways. For one thing, it shifted the focus-point for communities from the feudal manor to the local town itself, which was becoming more and more important. For another thing, the wealth of the small but growing "middle class" gave them more and more power with which to use as a new, independent force in the governance of lands once solely governed by the feudal lords.
During the middle ages most societies operated under some form of feudal system.

During the middle ages, freedmen were likely farmers who rented land from feudal lords. Unlike the peasants or serfs, freemen were completely free to come and go as they please and earn as much income from their efforts as they were able to.
