Wikipedia

  1. clientage

    A vassal or liege subject is a person regarded as having a mutual obligation to a lord or monarch, in the context of the feudal system in medieval Europe. While the subordinate party is called a vassal, the dominant party is called a suzerain. While the rights and obligations of a vassal are called vassalage, and the rights and obligations of a suzerain are called suzerainty. The obligations of a vassal often included military support by knights in exchange for certain privileges, usually including land held as a tenant or fief. The term is also applied to similar arrangements in other feudal societies. In contrast, fealty (fidelitas) was sworn, unconditional loyalty to a monarch.

    Clientage is a social system in which individuals seek protection or services from a powerful individual or establishment known as a patron, creating a mutual obligation relationship. The system consists of two main components: the patron or the superior party who provides resources or protection, and the client, who in return, offers loyalty or services. This can often be seen in politics, sociology, and ancient history. It originated in Roman society but can be applicable in various sectors such as business, law, etc. It forms the basis of patron-client relationships.
