In the feudal society of the Middle Ages, the levels of power can be arranged from most to least as follows:

  1. Monarch
  2. Pope and Church (though the Pope held significant spiritual authority, the monarch often had political power, so this can vary based on context)
  3. Nobles
  4. Knights and Vassals
  5. Merchants, Farmers, and Craftsmen
  6. Peasants (serfs)

This hierarchy reflects the general structure of feudal society, where land ownership and military service were key determinants of power and status.
