Answer:

Lords give their LOYALTY to the king

Step-by-step explanation:

What it means, and how it works? The Lord was a member of the nobility, and had the authority to rule his land as he wishes. In some cases, Lords receives a land under the king's influence, with the promise that the Lord will serve the monarch without question. The service could be

  • Take part in the royal council.
  • to provide the King with knights to defeat any kind of war.
  • to provide food and other necessities to the king.
  • to pay taxes and fees to the king if he needed them.
