Question

Socially and politically, a landed aristocracy was the dominant class on the continent. The members

of this class were united by a common way of life that cut across regional divisions. They owned

estates in the countryside and also town-houses. They spoke French for purposes of diplomacy and

in high society. Their families were often connected by ties of marriage. This powerful aristocracy

were cultivated by serfs.
