The feudal system allowed European lords to completely control the people and property on the land that he owned. The lord ruled on behalf of the king, who was God's representative on earth, therefore it was very difficult for the serfs to question the "natural" order of society.

The lord should have protected his people from other lords who during times of war would have tried to kill them, which therefore bound the serfs to the lord as their only means of protection.

One of the most important one was rule by divine right. God was said to have given the King the power to rule as he pleased and to give certain powers to the lords who owed him sworn allegiance.
