Today Mr. Schick had a powerpoint for us. Feudalism is a term used by government to describe relationships between the land owners and warriors. A warrior would pledge his alliance to a lord who would in turn give the knight some land. A fief is a term used for property. The warrior then would become the lord's servant. The vassel has to fight for the lord when he needs it and attend his court once a month. In the Medieval society the common people farmed on lands called manors. Peasants were serfs and had to give service to their lords on the fields a few times a week.
