Question

The king is at the top and owned all the land. He gave areas of land to rich lords and nobles. In return, the lords and nobles agreed to protect the land and supply soldiers. Knights fought for the nobles and the king. Peasants worked for the nobles and knights, who in turn offered them protection from invaders. Why was there a "need" for Feudalism?

Question 3 options:

1. Vikings threatened everyone. Kings had lost their power to protect their land and the people. Feudalism helped to protect both the people and the King's lands.


2.The Vikings took over the monarchy and they set up the Feudal System so their lands could be taken care of while they were off on raids in other parts of the world.


3. Kings wanted to be in power and this was the only way they could control their citizens from overthrowing the monarchy.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Fuedalism:"the dominant social system in medieval Europe, in which the nobility held lands from the Crown in exchange for military service, and vassals were in turn tenants of the nobles, while the peasants (villeins or serfs) were obliged to live on their lord's land and give him homage, labor, and a share of the produce, notionally in exchange for military protection."

There was no where in the passage that said Vikings. Also peasants or serfs work for the nobles and knights. Knights work for nobles. And Nobles work for Royalty. So it is only logical to be 3.
