Detailed explanation-1: -After the rank of king, the hierarchy was the nobles, the knights, the clergy (religious people), the tradesmen and the peasants.
Detailed explanation-2: -In England, the feudal pyramid was made up of the king at the top with the nobles, knights, and vassals below him. Before a lord could grant land to a tenant he would have to make him a vassal at a formal ceremony. This ceremony bound the lord and vassal in a contract.
Detailed explanation-3: -During the middle ages, in the feudal hierarchy, at the top of the chain was the King. After the King came the nobles. These were the Dukes, and the Nobility had vassals themselves, like the Viscounts and the Barons, who were of lesser rank. They were followed by the Knights and finally came the peasants and serfs.
