Feudalism was a system where land was owned by nobles and worked by peasants. Kings gave land to lords, and lords managed it with the help of knights. Peasants lived on the land and worked to produce food and goods. Each group had different roles and duties.

This system was common in medieval Europe and also existed in parts of Asia. Castles, villages, and farmland were part of feudal life. People were connected through agreements linked to land and service.

Feudalism was mainly used during the Middle Ages, from about the 9th to the 15th centuries. It shaped how societies were organized during that time. Different regions had their own versions of this system.
