Feudalism promoted a restructuring in the model of social, political, economic and cultural organization of Western European countries. The system created a mode of production that marked the beginning of the Middle Ages after the fall of the Roman Empire.

The system would have arisen from the junction of two elements that belonged to different civilizations. The settlement represented the mode of production exercised by the Romans, in which the peasants produced for the landowners in exchange for protection.

And the other element was the comitatus, characteristic of the barbarian peoples, which consisted of the loyal relationship between warriors and tribal chiefs, and which inspired the relationship developed between the members of the nobility in feudalism.
