Maybe you have a baron. And you could keep going down this chain of nobility where one noble is pledging fealty to the king, is a king's vassal, but then they are lord of another vassal. And you keep going all the way down until you get to a plot of land where the actual work might occur. And that term is often referred to as a manor. And a manor just doesn't happen at the bottom of this pyramid. A duke can have a manor, and they can split up the rest of their duchy and give sections of it to form counties that could be led by counts. But what we're going to focus on in this video is the manor itself, because that's where life in a medieval community actually takes place.
