What are some examples of feudalism?
Examples of feudalism include medieval Europe, Japan during the shogunate period, and parts of Africa during the pre-colonial era. Feudal societies were characterized by a hierarchical system where land ownership and power were vested in a ruling nobility, with peasants and serfs working the land in exchange for protection and services.
What is the primary objective from middevial times?
The primary objective of medieval times, particularly during the feudal era, was to maintain social order and stability. This was achieved through a hierarchical system where loyalty and land ownership defined relationships between lords, vassals, and serfs. Additionally, the Church played a crucial role in providing moral guidance and unity, influencing both governance and daily life. Overall, survival, protection, and adherence to religious and social norms were central to life in the medieval period.
What factors led to the breakdown of feudalism and the growth of towns?
There were a number of reasons for the gradual decline of feudalism. Among them were the fact that Europe began to experience a period of stability. This upset the feudal hierarchy: there was no longer a need for a large number of knights to protect their lord, and gradually, the control the lord had over these men weakened. Another factor that contributed to the decline of feudalism was the bubonic plague-- the Black Death, which killed so many people during the mid to late 1300s that workers were in short supply, and the nobles no longer had enough serfs to rely on. In fact, some laborers were able to hire themselves out and negotiate a salary, rather than being in a position where the noble forced them to work. Further, there was an expansion of exploration and trade in the world, leading to the rise of a merchant class. More merchants meant more goods to be sold, and cities and towns were established, as centers of commerce. Trade, especially trade with other countries, required the use of money, rather than just bartering out goods on a small, local scale as had been done during the height of feudalism. Even some serfs began to produce goods they could sell, and they were eventually able to buy their own land (and their freedom). Other serfs revolted, demanding better treatment; some left rural areas to move closer to centers of trade and commerce. These changes further eroded the total control the nobles once had, and ultimately led to the end of the feudal system.

Have serfs ever traveled?
Serfs in Europe were not allowed to leave the manor which they were tied to unless given permission by their lord. If they were caught leaving they were severely punished. Does this mean none of them traveled at all? Of course not and I'm sure there are instances of escape to freedom. As a whole however, serfs did not really travel. Have they "ever traveled" yeah, of course. If I could think of an instance of mass travelling serfs, at least widely, I'd think of indentured servants. While these were not serfs, they came to America and essentially became serfs who payed their passage to the Americas by working for seven years. They were pretty much slaves, just like serfs.
What was the emancipation of the Russian serfs?
When Alexander II freed the serfs (peasants) in Russia in 1861. The serfs were never truly freed. The Russian government bought land from the landowners to give to the serfs, but the serfs were required to repay the Russian government. These repayments took 49 years and the serfs stayed on the land until it was fully repaid.
