How did feudalism emerge?

• The collapse of the Roman Empire led to political decentralization and fragmentation, leaving areas without government services and kings gave lands to loyal lords to defend and control.

• The Nobility, lords and knights, protected the Clergy and Commons, providing military defense and law enforcement.

• The Clergy gave up all their property and devoted their lives to the Church, who owned many manors across Europe where members of the clergy lived communally and prayed for the Nobility and the Commons.

• The Commons, mostly farmers who lived on manors, gave their labor and obedience to the Clergy and the Nobility.
