Answer:

The early leaders of the Zhou Dynasty introduced the idea of the "Mandate of Heaven". ... The government of the Zhou was based on the feudal system. The emperor divided the land into fiefs that were usually ruled by his relatives. The nobles who ruled the fiefs basically owned the farmers who worked their lands.
