Did it break down, or did the crisis of the 14th-15th centuries and expansion of the 16th just provide a handy tipping-point in a centuries-long transition from classically "medieval" to "modern"? Some aspects did break down - feudal tenure with the rise of centralised monarchy, manorial organisation with the deepening money economy (already marked in the 13th century) and the demographic crisis of the 14th century - but much of what replaced them had long existed: towns, trade, merchants, manufacture, ambitious princes, bureaucracies. "Breakdown" is too simplistic: much of the old order carried over into the new, many of whose elements had grown up in its midst.
