Various factors contributed to this phenomenon of migration and invasion, and their role and significance are still widely discussed. The period is traditionally taken to have begun in AD 375 (possibly as early as 300) and ended in 568. The term refers to the important role played by the migration, invasion and settlement of various tribes, notably the Franks, Goths, Alemanni, Alans, Huns, early Slavs and the Pannonian Avars within or into the former Western empire and Eastern Europe. The migration period was a period in European history marked by large-scale migrations that saw the fall of the Western Roman Empire and subsequent settlement of its former territories by various tribes.

A villein could become a free man this way. They could run away to another town and live quietly, without being noticed. However, outside the manor, their options were limited. Some villeins tried to escape from their lords’ manors. On the walls of their houses, villeins hung meats, tools, and dried vegetables. In return, villeins were allowed to live in small houses on the manor, with floors made of earth and a thatched roof. They could not leave the manor without their lord’s permission. They could not move or marry unless the lord approved. A villein was legally tied to their lord or his manor. They had more freedom than slaves, but they were not completely free. When a noble died, his firstborn son got everything his father owned. Manors were given from one generation to another. These people got food and housing, but did not get paid in money. Lords allowed many people to live and work on their manors. Each manor had its own church, village, mill, wine press, and pasture lands. In return, the lords promised to give their vassals protection, peace, and safety. When a vassal fished on the lord’s land, they gave some of the fish to the lord. When a vassal killed animals for food, they gave part of the meat to their lord. A vassal also had to give other taxes and gifts to their lord. They had to use the lord’s granaries to grind the grain. A vassal had to pay taxes of grain to their lord. A serf had to pay taxes of grain to their vassal. Instead, they were paid in services (like free labor) and products (like crops). Under feudalism, taxes were not paid with money.
