"Father Francois, you are my honored guest. Please allow me to explain the feudal system to you before you ask any questions of me. I am but a simple farmer."
The King is on top. He needs soldiers to fight so he tells his vassals, if they get knights for him he will give land. His vassals make a deal with knights and in exchange for fighting , he will give them land. The knights make deals with peasants that if they do jobs for him, he will give land. In the end the King owns all the land.
