feudalism is the political, military, and social system in the Middle Ages, based on the holding of lands in fief or fee and on the resulting relations between lord and vassal.

3.How was social order maintained? Because the population of the wealthy was 90% ,it was very hard to change the social order from having many rich people being too powerful and control the other 10%.

# data[].attributes.body
Like most society’s, feudalism was pyramid based, with people who hold power at the top (monarchs), and peasants at the bottom. I don’t understand or like monarchy, but that’s how things were (and still are in some cases). It is pyramid based as the largest portion of people were also the poorest population, peasants who would be under the control of feudal lords who would take basically all the currency they had as taxes. You can see their society’s structure in the diagram below

5: childhood you say was non existent, there were almost no play or schooling. children were “sources” of labour on a farm or helping women with their household chores. “ peasant children” were educated in how to harvest a field, fix a roof or milk a cow.
children were treated like adults a the age of 10! because once you hit they age you could now participate in farm work. and when they were about the age of 14 they were isolated as they didn’t go to school and they’re were only little opportunities to mix with people their own age.

In the Middle Ages, women had few rights. Women from the nobility married as early as early as the age of twelve, which was arranged by their family. Childbirth was dangerous due to poor medical care. It was estimated That during the middle ages, one in five women died while giving birth. Peasant women had fewer rights than the noble, and their families were reluctant to allow them to marry as young as the noble. The reason for this was because they were an important source of labour. Peasant women did just as much fun labour is the man, and on top of that they had to attend various household chores, such as cooking dinner, making clothes, and looking after the children and small livestock.

Medieval women, regardless of class, had few rights. Women from the nobility married as early as the age of twelve. Marriage was arranged by the family. The aim was usually to gain political power or wealth for the girl's family. In an era of poor medical care, childbirth for women of any class was dangerous. It has been estimated that during the Middle Ages, one in five women died during childbirth. The noble women could not own property, except as a widow. Peasant families generally were reluctant to allow their girls to marry as young as the noble girls. This was because children were an important source of labour. Peasant women did much the same farm labour as men. On top of that, they had household duties such as preparing food and weaving clothes, etc.

Children were unable to have time to play or attend school, that was the story for majority of the population. Children were regarded as sources for child labour on the farms. It was at first for helping with the women with household chores, but in the short amount of time they were expected out on the fields. Peasant children were only taught how to harvest fields, milk cows, and fix roofs. Adolescence was ignored, and children from the age of 10 we considered adults, because then they could work on the farms. Boys typically married a little older than girls around the age of 14.

Medieval women, regardless of class, had few rights. Women from the nobility married as early as the age of twelve! Their marriage was arranged by the family. The aim was usually to gain political power or wealth for the girl’s family. Her husband — and society in general — expected her to produce a male heir to continue the noble line of her husband. In an era of poor medical care, childbirth for women of any class was dangerous. It has been estimated that during the Middle Ages, one in five women died during childbirth. Although she looked after her hus- band’s household and had some command over the servants, the noble woman could not own property, except as a widow.
