In most legislative bodies, including Congress a conference committee occurs when each house has passed their version of a particular bill. The committee of conference is conv â¦ ened to come up with a compromise that both houses can agree on and approve.
Manor house A manor house is a country house that historically formed the administrative centre of a manor, the lowest unit of territorial organisation in the feudal system in Europe. The term is applied to country houses that belonged to the gentry and other grand stately homes.
The manor (large estate), headed by a nobleman, had absolute authority over the serfs, (peasants) who worked the land. Lords of manors were vassals, or subjects, of a king. The kingâs knights protected the lords and their land. Serfs (servants) owed allegiance to their lord.
