Feudalism describes the most mature type of social relationships during the Middle Ages, where the fully developed class society is formed as a pyramid, whose base are the common people, and its top - the ruler. He or she has the power to distribute control over the land of the kingdom to the nobles, who in turn distribute parts of their lands to minor nobles, who in turn own the common people living on their land. Everyone in this society knows its place, and what he/she is supposed to do, which ensures that the system works smoothly (to the extent possible). History proves that this is the most efficient societal organization for the technical level of the time.

abstract
| - Feudalism describes the most mature type of social relationships during the Middle Ages, where the fully developed class society is formed as a pyramid, whose base are the common people, and its top - the ruler. He or she has the power to distribute control over the land of the kingdom to the nobles, who in turn distribute parts of their lands to minor nobles, who in turn own the common people living on their land. Everyone in this society knows its place, and what he/she is supposed to do, which ensures that the system works smoothly (to the extent possible). History proves that this is the most efficient societal organization for the technical level of the time. Developing Feudalism is the key to continued social development in the Middle Ages, unlocking most further Civics. It is also the first Civic to make obsolete some Policies, and replace them with more modern ones. Maybe most importantly, Feudalism unlocks the Adjacency bonus for Farms, which is described below.
