From the Paper:

"During the Middle Ages, the feudal system flourished because of the economic benefits that it provides for both the lords and the vassals, the primary elements concerned in the said system. Under feudalism, citizens of a nation are governed by the lord, which is often the King belonging to the monarchial system of government. The history of feudalism is mainly rooted in the political situation of Western nations during the Middle Ages. During this period, nations are currently undergoing political turmoil because of colonization and invasion of non-Christian soldiers. In order to preserve their kingdom, the monarchy sought the help of the barons, who are next in line in the society's political hierarchy. The Kings guaranteed the barons' help by giving them lands in which they can gain economic profit and gain. The barons will be able to help by providing knights where the King can use for his fight against the invaders of his kingdom."
