Correct Answer: Option A

A. feudalism

Explanation

Under the feudal system land was granted to people for service. It started at the top with the king granting his land to a baron for soldiers all the way down to a peasant getting land to grow crops. The center of life in the Middle Ages was the manor. The manor was run by the local lord.

Feudalism first originated partly as a result of Viking and Muslim invasions. Kings were unable to defend their lands, and lands of their nobles. Nobles had to find a way to defend their own land. The manorial system was related to the feudalsystem and it governed medieval economics.
