How did the growth of towns decrease the power of feudal lords?

The growth of towns diminished the power of feudal lords by fostering economic independence and creating a new social class of merchants and artisans.

Additionally, the rise of a cash economy allowed townspeople to pay for goods and services directly, diminishing their reliance on feudal obligations. This shift in economic power contributed to the gradual decline of the feudal system.
