A. Abolishment by kings of feudal ties, to establish government and extend royal power

Explanation:

The 1000-1150 period is in fact, a period when feudalism was at its peak. For example, France in the year 1100 was a unified kingdom in name only, it was in fact composed of several counties and duchies such as the Duchy of Normandy or the County of Champagne, that had political, military and economic power over these territories. The king ruled in name only, and in order to collect taxes, or raise an army, he needed the approval of local feudal lords.
