Correct Answer:
Option A – feudalism
Explanation
Feudalism is a system based on hierarchies of land ownership.
Ownership of land was vested in the king or Monarch or Emperor who also controlled all the users of the land. The landowners sublet the land to their subjects who must, in turn, render services such as work for certain days for the landowners, fight on his behalf, etc.
Feudalism was first practiced in ancient Europe from A.D.476 to AD 1500. Examples could be found in ancient India, China and Japan. It was also practiced in Asia and Africa.
