were dark times. In the middle ages there were social classes that organized the people into sections. This was called the feudal system. The feudal system was a system in which the nobles of the middle ages kept the ownership and control of their lands. It was how people were ranked, for example peasants, lords and knights. It was cruel and unfair because some people were higher ranked than others, and fewer people which were called peasants had very few rights. On the other hand lords were the…

king, but instead by individual lords, also known as barons. These lords or so called barons administered their own estates, dispensed their own justice, minted their own money, levied taxes and tolls, and demanded military service from vassals. Feudalism in short was a relationship of obligation and mutual service between vassals and lords. A vassal held his land, or fief, as a grant from the lord. So in return for the land a vassal was required to attend to the lord, help administer justice,…

The difference between vassal and lord shows the ranking of power, and the foundation for feudal relationships of medieval history. Idealised views of feudalism represent honorable agreements between a lord and his vassal or vassals in which they both offered their loyalties to one another in exchange for land and services that were usually military in nature.

Feudalism, England’s alternative to a government during the Middle Ages, played a significant role in the age of war and monarchs, and in some ways continues to have a role in today’s government. The workings of feudalism are simple. A king, or lord, gives land, also known as fiefs, ownership to nobles, also known as vassals, and in return for the king’s overall protection, the vassals would be responsible for providing their support and defense in the form of knights. In reciprocation for their…

model of government predating the birth of modern nation state. It discouraged united government and trade and economic growth. Under feudalism the lord would grant his subjects land in return for their services. When the Roman Empire collapsed feudalism was able to grow out of pure chaos.

Feudalism was a stage of social and economic…

Spring Reflection on Pastoral Year Experience Pastoral Reflection: The last 6 months of Pastoral Year has been a great blessing. The people in the Parish received me with such love and care.

A couple that I got to know real well is the Bernard and Rosemarie Scheiff. They treat me like their own son.…

left a trail of angry noblemen and lords in their wrath. The Black Death caused Lords to no longer be able to manage, protect and produce what they otherwise would be able to and whole towns and cities shut down, causing a loss of necessary jobs. Things like the hue and cry and tithings no longer worked properly. It was certainly much harder to hold a manorial court with people who were afraid to leave their houses and so the system could not work as usual. As lords lost their power, peasants…

wife. Unfortunately, her efforts failed and Lady Madison passed away. A few weeks later the bodies of Charles’s eldest son and Sir Rose, were put upon an old mule and sent back to the manor house.
