Feudal System in Europe<\/h1>\n

Definition of Feudal System<\/h2>\n

\n

The system of political organisation of States in the Middle Ages, based on land tenure. The King was the ultimate lord of all land. He granted land to his lords in return for military services, and they in their turn made further similar grants, the process known as subinfeudation. The unit of land in the system was the manor, each under its lord, who had a right to services in labour and in kind from the villeins, the servile tenants of the manor, over whom he exercised full jurisdiction. The lord in return owed them a duty of protection. The King had an overriding authority and claimed allegiance both from lords and their tenants<\/p>\n<\/h4>\n
