    That’s both not true and also not what I asked. The UK has a king and noble family, does that make it a feudal system?

        There are other monarchies in the world today that do hold political power. That doesn’t mean that they’re governing over a feudal system. The noble system I described is one of the defining characteristics of feudalism.

          Okay, in the oversimplified graphic of the meme, I was including absolute monarchy under feudalism, since I thought it was closer to that than capitalism.

            Right, because you’re doing zero analysis of the economic or political structures involved and playing fast and loose with terminology.

        They’re the largest landholders in the entire country. Holy shit you’re fucking dumb.
