Answer:
The two features of early feudal society in France are as follows:
The noble enjoyed a privileged status. He had absolute control over his property, in perpetuity. He could raise troops called ‘feudal levies’. The lord held his own courts of justice and could even coin his own money. He was the lord of the people settled on his land. His owned vast tracts of land which contained his own dwellings, his private fields and pastures and the homes of his tenant-peasants.
The peasants comprised the third order. There were two types of peasants, viz. free peasants and serfs. The free peasants cultivated their own land and also worked on the lord’s land. The serfs did not have their own land.
