Big Ideas about Feudal Europe  After the fall of Rome, a political and social system called feudalism developed in Europe.  Many societies rely on family roles and social classes to keep order.  Feudal society was divided into well–defined classes.  At the top were kings and wealthy landowners.  At the bottom were peasants, many of whom worked for the landowners.

The Emergence of Feudalism Notes for ISN p. 44  Warfare and the constant threat of invasion led to the creation of a political and social system known as feudalism. Feudalism emerged largely as a way for kings and nobles to hold onto their land and power during so much warfare. Lords gave pieces of their land to lesser nobles called vassals. These plots of land were called fiefs  Feudalism was based on an agreement between two groups of nobles—lords and vassals. A lord was a powerful noble who owned land. Lords gave pieces of their land to lesser nobles called vassals. These plots of land were called fiefs. In return for the land, the vassal owed his lord service in his court and army. Many vassals were warriors known as knights. Thus, they fought on behalf of the lord. Other vassals hired knights to defend the lord and his property. Vassals also paid taxes to their lord in return for their fief (land).

 Kings and nobles created a new system to keep their power during all of the chaos/war  New system known as feudalism; based on agreements between two groups of nobles: lords and vassals  Lords – powerful land owning nobles; gave land to vassals (lesser nobles)  In return, vassals defended lords’ property, many were knights  Vassals also paid lords’ taxes for their fief, or piece of land

Most were dead before they reached 30 years old. o The kings believed they were given the right to rule by God.

The Transition from Feudalism to Nationalism Notes Needed for ISN Page 48  Feudalism is a political and social system for kings and nobles to hold on to their land and power during warfare.  Because of famine and disease (Black death), there was a decrease in workers.  Because there was a decrease in workers, they demanded more power and rights.  Because they demanded more power and rights, the people were able to become merchants and craftsmen known as the middle class.  Because of the middle class, towns and cities began to grow.  Because of this growth, power changed from owning land to having money.  Because of success of the middle class, people had a feeling of pride and belonging to their country which is known as Nationalism.

The Transition from Feudalism to Nationalism Nationalism: A belief in the importance of your country or a feeling that you are proud to belong to your country. Devotion to their country and patriotism. The feudal society of Europe left the ideals of loyalty and honor which remain strong to this day. Another legacy of the European Middle Ages is surnames, or family names. Many European family names have medieval origins. For example, a person took a family name from his or her job. Family names such as Baker, Carpenter, Cook, and Taylor are still common today. Many medieval structures such as churches and castles still stand in Europe. One of the most powerful institutions during this time was the Catholic Church, which remains very active to this day.

During the Middle Ages, knights used a coat of arms to identify themselves. One man in armor looked a lot like another, so the coat of arms was used to identify a knight in battle. In a society where few people could read and write, pictures were very important. Only the oldest son would inherit his family’s coat of arms unchanged; his younger brothers would usually add a symbol to show who they were. The symbol a younger son added was often a smaller picture placed in the middle of the shield. When a woman married, the coat of arms of her family was often added to her husband’s arms. Sometimes the arms were quartered, or divided into parts. In this case, the man’s family coat of arms was in the upper left quarter and lower right, while the woman’s family’s arms were in the other two quarters. Shields are “read” like a book, starting at the upper left, going across and then down. Coat of Arms
