The main problems of evidence in dealing with early civilizations is that much of the potential evidence itself--such as tools, homes, etc--has vanished due to the fact that it was made of materials such as clay that could not withstand the test of time and weather.
The main obligations that a peasant had to the lord of the manor included the constant upkeep and maintenance of the land, as well a promise to give up the land upon command.

Renaissance marriages were not simply personal matters; they were
crucial to the network of alliances that underlay a family’s prosperity
and prospects and that, in turn, formed the fabric of loyalties,
affection, and obligation that supported civic institutions. Arranging a
suitable match involved family, friends, associates, and political.in aristocratic families, marriages were a currency of dynastic and diplomatic exchange
The structure of Congress is based on two major determiners: equal representation for all states and representation based on population. The Senate has equal representation from each state by allowing exactly two senators from each state to be elected in. The House of Representatives is literally representative of the people because the number of reps from each state is based on population, as a states population grows or shrinks compared with other states it's number of allowed representatives rises and falls. For example, a state with a huge population like California has 53 reps while a state with significantly fewer residents, like Wyoming only has 1 rep. Most states fall in between.
In my school's legislature I would have two houses to make sure there was balance in representation. One house would have 3 students from each grade who were elected into their positions. The other house would have representatives from every major club or interest group based on how popular that group is. For example, there are a lot of athletes at this school so there might be 5 representatives elected to speak and vote on behalf of their group. There are much less people involved in yearbook so they would have 1-2 representatives. The legislative houses could meet regularly to discuss major issues in the school and come with ideas to make the school better. All the members would have an equal value in their vote about solutions to the issues. The two houses could pass ideas by each other for major progress and change. I think that this would be the best way to make sure that every student in our school was represented in our congress regardless of grade level or interest group.
