What role did vassals play in the structure of feudalism

Sagot :

Vassals were otherwise known as knights, as the two were in the same social standing. Vassals were also referred to as lords, and held a place between the two. A vassal held control of an estate and also fought under orders from the area's ruler. Whether this ruler be a neighboring lord or a faraway king, orders remained stagnant. A vassal also housed serfs (peasants) on his land, who worked the land in exchange for part of the crops and housing space, similar to the situation of African-American and white slaves in the early United States and during the Civil War in the South.

Each vassal, under European ancient feudalism nomenclature, is one that within a recommendation protocol, intrudes into complementary commitment amidst a royalty, frequently fighting enrollment and common security, in substitution for a compensation. Vassals owed their ruler resolution, naval co-operation, bills subsidy on several occurrence, and a lawsuit to court. At last, this was a supporter for a nobleman by haunting and operating in his government and committee.
