No such thing as citizenship until the events of the french revolution (1789) Created laws which they themselves may not follow but was made to impose upon his subjects (the people were subjected to the king"s whim and will) Everyone and everything (i. e. land) was the property of the monarch. Land was parceled out to nobility (family and friends of the monarch) so that they may reside on the land so long as they remained in the good favour of the monarch.
