I'm not sure if feudal is the right term, but it's what I could think of.
On the claiming of lands in the Americas the British crown officially claims it all, then begins handing it out to their many sons, as rewards for loyal subjects, etc.
So colonization of the British Americas is the local lord and retinue coming to his new Duchy, Barony, whatever and importing workers for it.
