Why was equality before law a challenge to feudal society?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because feudal society accepted inequality based on birth and status
Feudal society was organised through a hierarchy in which birth, estate and inherited privilege influenced a person’s rights and obligations. Equality before law rejected the idea that nobles and ordinary people should be judged by different standards. Thus option A is correct. Feudal society did not provide universal suffrage, equality did not stop trade, and the principle was not limited to aristocrats.
