Simply put: there is no single "system". The system of allegiances changes with time and location. Logically deducing, the darn system might even change several times in a person's lifetime, and not just when another related individual dies.

Probably the one constant in all this is the fact that as long as anyone in charge think that they can get away with abusing whatever system is in place at the time (coupled with inadequate or corrupt supervision), they will do so, for profit or simply because they can (perhaps, by the grace of whatever they worship).

Sounds like it would make a fun game though. Take CK2, ditch de jure claims and vassalage, and replace the latter with flexible ties of varying power and duration, and we have a somewhat more accurate dynasty simulator! The maps would certainly look interesting.

So is there anything you agree with the popular understanding of medieval society?

Please fix the slowness of the game since Rajas. That's all I humbly ask :(

It's not just slow to catch up, Medievalists have been being deliberately ignored by popular culture and scholastic education from the start. and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future.
Most fields of historians are.

Too damn right. People still primarily see the Mongols as "super-badass horse archers who destroyed entire civilisations" or some muck like that, despite the fact that it's a view that's at least 17 years behind academia.

Wait, the Mongols did not make a pyramid of skulls 5 miles high and 6 miles wide?

OF COURSE THEY DID! Don't bother with the lies of the people whose only destiny is to bow before the Greatest of Khans! The Sky is Tengris Domain and it is his children destiny to rule all that is beneath it.

Guys, Its not about being 10000% accurate, its about having a fun, somewhat historical game. I think we can all agree the game is fun, no?
And if we cant, then Dracos shall rise and Smite all who oppose my glory and insight.

Oh, I have no problem with the game. Was just a comment on pop-culture in general :p.
