2(i() Chap. VI] THE FEUDAL period; lands [§248 was detached (the " fief servant ") was said to be in the tenure (" mouvance ") of the part that lie retained (the " fief dominant "), that is, dependent upon it ; it was to the hind rather than to the seignior personally, that the feudal obligations were due, because if the seignior changed they were due to the new proprietor. The fief dominant was itself dependent upon a superior fief (the suzer- ain fief) over against which the fief servant was
...an " arriere fief " or " mesne-fief " [subfief].^ During the monarchical period it was generally admitted that all fiefs were " sub-fiefs " of the king ; no one in France could hold land without being amenable to the king for it (mediately or immediately). - The king, therefore, possessed the right of eminent domain over all land in the kingdom, ^ a universal lordship, an idea which did not, it appears, date from the earliest times of feudalism, because at this time the kings asserted only a right of sovereignty over French soil outside their own domains ; it was solely by virtue of their right as sover- eigns and not as suzerains that they appeared at the summit of the feudal hierarchy.
