Discuss the condition of peasants under Feudalism in Europe? |
| Answer» Under feudalism,\xa0peasants\xa0lived in a state of serfdom, a\xa0condition\xa0that essentially turned them into rural slaves. The rigid and cruel medieval system of law and order that accompanied\xa0feudalism\xa0succeeded as a tool for social control and largely prevented\xa0peasant\xa0resistance or rebellion.\xa0At the bottom of the\xa0feudal system\xa0social hierarchy are the\xa0peasants\xa0and the serfs. ... The\xa0peasants\xa0divided the land in narrow strips for each family. This way, everyone got a share of the good land and the poor land. A fief typically needed dozens of\xa0peasant\xa0families to maintain it, grow crops, and raise livestock. | |
