How was medieval society structured?

Answer 1

Social: Europe was divided by the Feudal system. In which a majority of the population was unskilled workers, peasant or serfs and mostly worked in the fields, and contained a very small skilled working class as well. Above them where Vassals or knights, who kept the peasants in line and provided protection for the Lord. The Lord was the head of the entire system and controlled the classes below.

Economic: Medieval Europe was dominated by a manor system. It which peasants where provided shelter and protection from Lords and Vassals as long as they provided crops for the Lord to sell and make a profit. So the wealth was concentrated in a very small few.

Military: Again the manor system. The military was more of small scale in manors instead of nations, since nations where very loose or non existent at the time. Also in the High middle ages the Long Bow was invented.

Religion: Pretty much controlled European life. One of the only books published in this era was either The Bible or something related to the Bible. (This of course was looser in the High Middle ages because there where many scientific discoveries in that era that where suppressed by the church.) The Church was one of the wealthiest establishments in Europe. They owned a third of all the land, and in a society based on land ownership for wealth, this gave them immense power.
