fief
fief The land held under the
FEUDAL SYSTEM by a
VASSAL from his lord. Fiefs ranged in size from vast duchies down to the area of land needed to support a single knight, called a knight's ‘fee’.

During the early Middle Ages areas which had been forest or barren land came under cultivation and were incorporated into the system.
