The middle ages had a system of society called feudalism, which meant serfs or peasants stayed a serf and nobles stayed as nobles. A serf was little more than a slave and worked their lord's fields. Nobles were knights, generals, lords, and kings. Society in those days was often brutal and unpleasant. They often called the Middle Ages the Dark Ages because of the lack of knowledge medieval scholars had because of the corruption of the medieval church not allowing scholars to open ancient textbooks because the church saw it as heresy and forbade these ancient books and certain biblical scriptures to be read, making basic knowledge lost to society.
