Feudalism/Feudal System
The feudal system was a system of trust. The king gave land grants (called fiefs) to his nobles, barons, and bishops in return for their loyalty and their knights for his army. The nobles and barons and bishops, in turn, gave land to the knights in return for loyalty and working for them. The knights' first loyalties were to the noble/baron they served, then to the king. This was proven by the Magna Carta. At the bottom of the social hierarchy were the peasants. Knights gave them a tiny bit of land and protection (after-affect of the Vikings, don't you think?) in exchange for working the land (farming). This is called demesne. There were also serfs. Serfs were very much like peasants, except they had less rights and could not leave the manor, whereas peasants could, but rarely did so.
