The King gives land to the lords, in return, the lords give the King loyalty and soldiers, otherwise the King is just one man. The lords split the land given to them to the Knights, in return, the Knights fight for the lord, and through him, the King. The peasants just live on the land given to the Knights and they just farm in return for protection.
