The Middle Ages

The beginning of the Middle Ages (AKA Dark Ages) Fall of Rome – No central power to provide order Many Peoples invaded the area Social and Economic Chaos Loss of education, literacy Trade Declined Cities were abandoned Moved to towns, villages

Rebuilding Society Feudalism (political system) Manor system (economic system) Rebuilt Trade and Infrastructure

Feudalism Form of government based on exchange of land for protection and services

Feudalism Hierarchy- Descending power and authority Social Class system- Inherited Well defined Investiture- Loyalty and Service secured by Oath (contract)

Feudal Class System Lords – Nobles that were given lands by king to maintain in return for service (Landlords) Knights- Lesser Nobles that were also given lands to maintain in return for service Serf- Worked the land and could not leave (Indentured) Peasants- Worked the land but could leave (Freemen)

How Feudalism Works King or Nobel gives control of a piece of land (Fief) to another Nobel (Vassal) in return for service and taxes Fief- is a piece of land given to a vassal by a lord to manage and protect. Vassal- Anyone who pledged their loyalty and service to another in return for a grant of land. Nobles can then divide up land further to other Nobles (Knights) or peasants/surfs in return for service and taxes

Vassals Most noble vassals were knights: Professional horse soldiers Vassals provided military service and paid taxes to lords Mostly taxes were paid in crops Ultimately everyone was a vassal of the king
