Feudalism, or "feudalismo," was a social and economic system that dominated medieval Europe, characterized by the hierarchical structure of land ownership and obligations among lords, vassals, and serfs. It established a system of mutual loyalty and protection, where lords granted land (fiefs) to vassals in exchange for military service, while serfs worked the land in return for protection and a place to live. This system shaped political power dynamics, influenced social classes, and impacted the development of medieval economies. Its legacy can still be seen in modern concepts of land tenure and social hierarchy.
