What did a Medieval squire get for pay?

No pay. He was a noble boy who was in training to become a knight. People did not earn a "salary" in this time. Peasants worked for the house and land they lived on, nobles earned the manor for being loyal to the king for whom they protected politically.


How did feudalism work in Europe?

The feudal system was meant to help organize things for people (to help people). How it worked: What happened was that the king was at the top, and then the nobles were given land that was split up so they couldn't start a rebellion and the nobles gave their land to lots of knights which gave thier land to lots of peasants which farmed the land and paid taxes. The knights fought, and the king gave the noble more land so that he was richer. More land=richer you are! This kind of system was based on kept promises. If some promises were not kept, the entire system fails. For example, if a king gives 12 lords land to have in return for service, the lord promises to give the king knights to protect him. But if only 6 lords keep the promise, then the king isn't as well-protected and therefore has a chance to die.


What was the role of a noble during the dark ages?

The noble was a man who kept the estates and manors for a king. He got these in return for his loyalty to the king. Since Europe was a patchwork of holdings this was very important for the king and the noble. The noble pledged his men to fight for the king when needed. Many nobles were also knights and in war they fought as a knight. To be a knight was very expensive. A suit of armor, in today's standards, would cost the same as a 5 bedroom house today. They also had a horse that was trained for battle and not just for riding around on. The noble's role was to serve the king, provide protection to the king, pay taxes from his estates, and to provide food to the king.


What are the responsibilities of the peasants in the middle ages?

The peasant class were small farmers. Up to 90 of the total population were peasants. They lived mostly in small villages and farmed, gardened, tended animals, and practiced basic crafts. Peasants were essentially subsistence farmers, producing their own food, raw materials, and to a certain extent crafted goods, and selling their narrow surplus in nearby market towns. A few peasants were free, but most were classified as villeins, or serfs. Villeins owned labor to the lord of the land on which they lived. The exact amount varied by location, but it could be up to two days per week. Peasants also owed a variety of taxes, fees, and tithes based on their personal property and the land they held. Villeins could travel, and would often travel short distances to nearby markets or towns to trade. A villein could not permanently leave their village, however, without the permission of the lord, although this was sometimes arranged, sometimes in return for an annual fee. Villeins should not be confused with slaves. Despite having labor obligations and certain duties a villein could not be sold to anther lord or compelled to leave their land. They could own a house, movable property, and have rights to a certain amount of acreage in the village fields, a right which was inheritable by their heir. Some peasants gained control of enough land to need hired help to work their holdings. A few had sufficient income for a household servant or two. A villein of sufficient financial means could even hire a replacement to fulfill some or all of his labor obligations. This was the exception rather than the rule, of course, but it is an indication that status as a villein did not always mean poverty, nor did status as a free peasant always mean a superior financial position. Free peasants lived much the same life as their villein neighbors, but they did not owe labor (or only owed a token amount of labor) and had the right to relocate at their own discretion. Free peasants would pay an annual rent based on the amount of land they held in the village fields, as well as taxes and tithes based on their personal property.

How are the nobles conected to the king and knights?

Answer:The "nobles" were the king and the knights.Answer:The kings, of course, were usually at the top of the feudal pyramid.Below the kings were various members of the nobility, each of whom was given some responsibility for some piece of land and its people. After the initial chaos of the Middle Ages was over, the titles and land of nobility were usually hereditary.Knights were of the lesser nobility, but were also usually members of heavy cavalry. Unlike most titles of nobility, the title of knight could usually not be inherited. The land associated with the title, however, was usually hereditary.Younger sons of hereditary nobles usually became knights or members of the clergy.There is more information on how different ranks of nobility related to each other at related question, "How did the medieval titles of nobility develop?"

Why were medieval royal people always rich?

The economy of Europe was agricultural through the entire Middle Ages. The nobility controlled most of the land, and so they controlled most of the means of production of the economy. The peasants, most of whom lived on the land the nobles controlled, paid rent and provided services in exchange for their places to live and fields to work. So the nobles derived their wealth indirectly from farming.

Is it to whom of to who?

It is "to whom". You use whom as an object and whoas a subject, just as you use him as an object and heas a subject, or me as an object and I as a subject. This gives you an easy way to check whether you should use who or whom: try substituting he or him, or I or me.For example, would you say "give it to he" or "give it to him"? Since "give it to him" is correct, you know that you need to use an object after "to", so that tells you to use "whom". You could also have used "give it to me" or "give it to I" to tell you the same thing: "give it to me" is correct, showing that you need an object after "to".
