What was the feudal system in the middle ages?

Why and how did William gain control of England from 1066 to 1087?
== == He made a book called the doomsday book, which showed him how rich or poor everyone was so he would know how much to tax everyone (rich people more, poor people less). He would then use the taxes to fight wars, build castles. When William took the crown, his first order of business was to break the power of the Anglo-Saxon earls who were the real powers in England, not the king. The feudal system was like a pyramid. At the top was the king. Under the king were the barons. The knights served the barons and the peasants served the knights. The king owned all the land. He gave some land to the barons. The barons had to obey the king and pay him taxes on the land. The baron had to take care of the fief or land. The baron divided up his land and gave it to the knights. They had to serve and protect the baron. The knights divided their land up and gave it to the peasants who had to pay taxes.
