Kings and Generals animated historical documentary series on the history of medieval period continues with an episode on Feudalism and what everyone gets wrong about it. For centuries, feudalism has been portrayed as the defining system of the Middle Ages, with lords, vassals, and fiefs forming the backbone of medieval society. But how accurate is this picture? Modern historians have challenged the long-held belief in a universal "feudal system," arguing that it is more a construct of later legal scholars than a reflection of early medieval reality. In this video, we explore the myths and misconceptions surrounding feudalism, tracing its supposed origins in the Carolingian era and the traditional narrative of land grants, vassalage, and military service. We examine how scholars like Susan Reynolds and Roman Deutinger have reinterpreted medieval sources, revealing a far more complex and regionally diverse social structure than previously imagined. Was feudalism truly a medieval reality, or was it invented by 12th-century jurists trying to codify chaotic local practices? Join us as we uncover the real story behind medieval landholding, personal loyalties, and why the concept of feudalism may be more fiction than fact.
