Feudalism is a system in which the government is decentralized, and power is spread among a large number of local lords. It was caused in Europe by problems with maintaining the Carolingian Empire while it was under threat from outside, by such groups as the Vikings, and from within, by internal dissent.

The most significant factor that contributed to the development of feudalism in Western Europe was the collapse of centralized authority following the fall of the Roman Empire. This power vacuum led to widespread insecurity and frequent invasions, prompting local lords to seek protection and stability by granting land to vassals in exchange for military service. This decentralized system allowed for the establishment of reciprocal obligations between lords and vassals, forming the basis of feudal society.
