Through much of the Middle Ages, serfs were not allowed to move off the manors where they lived. For the most part, they had to live and work in the places where they were born.
The plague reduced the rural population so much that many members of the nobility did not have enough serfs to work their land. In fact some manors were abandoned altogether, because there were no serfs to work on them. The result was that a number of nobles bribed serfs to move illegally to their manors, and protected them once they got there. This broke the old manorial ties.
You should understand, however, that the manorial system was never in use over all of Europe, and it was already on the decline long before the plague. Also, in some places, it lasted until long after the Black Death was over. In some places, it was still in place until the 19th century.
The outbreak of war, particularly during the late Middle Ages and the Hundred Years' War, shifted power dynamics as monarchs required larger, more professional armies, reducing reliance on feudal lords. This centralization of power diminished the traditional feudal hierarchy and fostered a sense of national identity. Additionally, the war efforts encouraged increased taxation and representation, leading to the emergence of parliamentary systems and democratic thought, as common people began to demand a voice in governance. Consequently, the decline of feudalism paved the way for more egalitarian political structures.

By strengthening royal authority at expenses of nobles and shifting power to common people. ------------------------------- This is true for the Magna Carta, but not the same for the Model Parliament introduced by Edward I. The Parliament gave a voice to both common people AND lords. Both of them had voices and it didn't really weaken feudalism, as both sides of the story benefited from this. WIN-WIN situation.
England became the first industrialised country. The ownership of land, which had been the aristoracy's means of controlling the populace became increasingly irrelevent as more money was made in factories.
The Crusades caused many nobles and knights to leave their land which caused feudalism to decline. Because of the decline in feudalism, many kings took the opprotunity to come to power and create a kingdom.

Feudalism was already in decline by the time of the Crusades due to factors such as the growth of centralized monarchies and the rise of commerce. The Crusades did contribute to the decline of feudalism by weakening the power of feudal lords and increasing the authority of monarchs. However, it is unlikely that feudalism would have continued indefinitely even without the Crusades due to the broader socio-economic changes taking place in Europe during that time.
It is thought that they lived since the 12th century (1100s) to the end of the 16th century (1500s) Their decline was due to the sudden outbreak of smallpox and typhus.
