Feudalism

Feudalism Feudalism was the foundation of the European government. The structure of feudalism was incredibly unbalanced, which was the main reason for its downfall. When the Roman empire fell, it left many wealthy landowners spread throughout the European countries. For every wealthy landowner there were many more poorer. They decided therefore to commend themselves to landlords, surrendering to a lord in return for safety and the right to farm the properties. This was the beginning …

…the start. Even though Feudalism was the foundation of the European government and although it served statesmen well, their pleasure was ruined by the pressure put on the lower class. Noblemen realized that in order to do well, all classes must unite to create a strong profitable country. This sparked the fall of feudalism and set a path for modern times.
