      And during that time there was feudal relief, which was a one time payment for someone to inherit estate-in-lands or fiefs.

      Kind of like if your inheritance was rich and powerful enough you needed to pay a tax to have the inheritance passed on. Otherwise the state didn’t give a fuck. Sound familiar?
