> Knights, land owners, serve the king and do what he says

You have a very perverted sense of how monarchy and feudalism worked

You sound like the king of France before he got his head chopped off.

There is a relationship between king and subject, lord and vassal. It is a two-way street. It is quid-pro-quo.

You're the one with a perverted sense of monarchy and feudalism lmao. Some kings lost to nobility. Other kings destroyed their enemies. In all these instances of history, how many times was it that the kings expelled the jews vs. the nobility that usurped? I'll take King Louis IX, King Henry III and King Edward I anyday. Even King Alfred the Great and King Richard the Lionheart.

The kings of England were never absolute monarchs, but more of a chief of chiefs. Before the Norman invasion, the position of king was more of a temporary promotion, a position that only had meaning in times of invasion or war.

Even after the Norman invasion they had to work for the interests of their vassals, otherwise their vassals wouldn't support them. The Normans found out really quick that the English people were not ones to be pushed around and had to incorporate the Earls into their political hierarchy.

It's not like King Alfred the Great literally united almost all of England, when it wasn't a united country under a single ruler, against the vikings and crushed them or anything. It's not like his grandson Æthelstan formed and named all the different nations in England "England" or anything as a result. It's not like all of Europe united under King Charlemagne to forever stop the sheep fuckers that believed the smoke fairies told them to burn children vikings or anything. King Alfred didn't vote what his people thought about the vikings then acted. King Henry III didn't vote what what his people thought about the jews and the debts they owed them after he discovered they had been child sacrificing, he just hung them all *even though your very "White land owners" were rebelling against him for it because they DEFENDED THE JEWS SO THEY COULD KEEP MAKING MORE MONEY.* King Edward I didn't vote what his people thought about expelling the jews, he just followed his father's work and expelled them all *even though your very "White land owners" were rebelling against him for it because they DEFENDED THE JEWS SO THEY COULD KEEP MAKING MORE MONEY.* Do you see a pattern yet?
