US FEDALISM
The political affairs of the world in eighteenth century left much to be desired by today’s modern democratic standards. Most dramatic regime changes following a revolution or war are quite easy to explain. France in 1789 was seething with discontent at a corrupt and insensitive monarchy. Russia in 1917 was long overdue for a revolution to sweep away on archaic, semi-feudal order. And the numerous colonial wars of independence in the post-1945 period were predictable, given the rapid political and economic changes which World War II and its aftermath had precipitated. The American fails to fit any of these neat stereotypes, however.
The principal aims that the Founding Fathers of the Constitution had been to guarantee the sovereignty of the people, to maintain a maximum of liberty for the citizens. To have popular representation without an unbridled majority rule. The sources of inspiration of the Founding Fathers were to a high extent John Locke, Thomas Paine and Montesqieu. To achieve the four main aims: The social contract, democracy and separation of power, federalism. In order to judge the success of the constitution to fulfil the aims of the Founding Fathers, one should look at the changes that have occurre! this is all i could find hope it helps

It is probably Feudalism not Fedalism.
Feudalism refers to a general set of reciprocal legal and military obligations among the warrior nobility of Europe during the Middle Ages, revolving around the three key concepts of lords, vassals, and fiefs.
The structure of feudalism can be seen in how these three elements fit together. A lord was a noble who owned land, a vassal was a person who was granted land by the lord, and the land was known as a fief. In exchange for the fief, the vassal would provide military service to the lord. The obligations and relations between lord, vassal and fief form the basis of feudalism.

You need to give the proper spelling here, dear. There are two words I can think of that MIGHT be the one you're looking for:
Feudalism:
1. A political and economic system of Europe from the 9th to about the 15th century, based on the holding of all land in fief or fee and the resulting relation of lord to vassal and characterized by homage, legal and military service of tenants, and forfeiture.
2. A political, economic, or social order resembling this medieval system.
Federalism:
1. A system of government in which power is divided between a central authority and constituent political units.
2. Advocacy of such a system of government.

If you mean feudalism then it is:
1- A political and economic system of Europe from the 9th to
about the 15th century, based on the holding of all land in fief
or fee and the resulting relation of lord to vassal and
characterized by homage, legal and military service of
tenants, and forfeiture.
2- A political, economic, or social order resembling this
medieval system.

It would help if you spelled the word correctly. "Feudalism" is the social system that was in place during the middle ages; it involved kings and lords and ladies and peasants (or serfs) who worked in the fields. Or maybe you meant "federalism". Try spelling the word correctly and looking it up on wikipedia.org. You'll get a lot more information than you will here.

I'm guessing you mean 'Feudalism' and the definition of feudalism is debated, but roughly speaking a feudal society is one where:
Land is held in exchange for service
Obedience is rendered in exchange for protection
Society is hierarchically ordered with a military class of highly-trained and expensively-equipped warriors supported by a mass of peasants who provide labor and are tied to the land.
