What formed feudalism

A number of events which occurred during medieval era of the middle ages and based on the division of the land by the King to nobles and vassals.

Feudalism was the system in European medieval societies of the 10th to 13th centuries CE whereby a social hierarchy was established based on local administrative control and the distribution of land into units (fiefs). A landowner (lord) gave a fief, along with a promise of military and legal protection, in return for a payment of some kind from the person who received it (vassal). Such payment came in the form of feudal service which could mean military service or the regular payment of produce or money. Both lord and vassal were freemen and the term feudalism is not generally applied to the relationship between the unfree peasantry (serfs or villeins) and the person of higher
social rank on whose land they laboured.

Feudalism by be define as the dominant social system in medieval Europe, a combo of legal and military customs in the 9th and 15th centuries.
