Feudalism was a social, economic, and political system that dominated medieval Europe, characterized by the exchange of land for military service and labor. In this system, a king granted large estates to nobles, who in turn provided protection and governance over the land and its inhabitants, known as serfs or peasants. Key characteristics include a hierarchical structure of lords and vassals, the decentralization of power, and a reliance on agrarian economies. Feudalism emphasized loyalty, duty, and mutual obligations between different classes within society.
