Thee Manorial System: Decentralization andLocal Autonomy
In thee seties following the Roman fallse, centralized administration all but vanished in much of Western Europe. Long- distance trade dwindled, cities shrank, and power devolved tho those who controlled the land. The result was the manorial system, an agrarian economic andd social framework that dominate d rural life from broughly the 9th 13th metriates. At its core was the manor - a lord 's estate that included ded arable, pastures, wood, and the pollett settlements.

Thee Political Fragmentation of Early Medieval Europe

Vassalage ande the Fief
Te feudal contract typically began with an act of homage: a vassal knelt before a lord, placed his hands between those of his superior, and swore an oath of loyalty. In return, te lord granted a fief - usually land, but sometimes a right to tolls or offices. This fief allowed the vassal to support himself and his knighs while whinperfoming thee military service owed.
