What responsibilities did lords have in the fuedal system?
Lords and vassals were granted land plots in exchange for offering services to protect the king. The serfs worked this land for the lords in exchange for their own protection. Therefore, the primary purpose of a lord was to master the art of war.
Where did serfs live in the Middle Ages?
Most serfs lived on manors. These were farming estates that belonged to lords, and whose residents were mostly serfs. The serfs typically lived in a village or hamlet on the manor, in cottages. Some serfs were not agricultural and worked as laborers. They typically lived in cottages in villages or boarding houses in towns.
What were serfs in the Middle Ages?
a serf is a person who must stay to the land and owned by the feudal landlord and is a part that keeps the feudalism system balanced because they do most of the work. A serf had to pay to the lord money when he's almost dead, a dead person makes the family of serfs pay even more. He also had to fight for his/her lord... >(
Which of the following best describes serfs?
Serfs are often described as unfree. More accurately, because that term is usually misunderstood, they might best be called peasants who were bound to the land they lived on but did not own. The problem with the term unfree, is that most people think it means slave, which it was not. Serfs did not have a right to move away from the land they lived on, but unlike slaves they could not be bought or sold, and unlike slaves, they had a right to live and work on the land. They owed the lord rent, usually in the form of labor or a part of the crop, but they had a right to expect the lord to protect them. There is a link to an article on serfs below.
Was life ever easy for Russian peasants?
No. They were serfs and had little to live on or own. It didn't get much better for them under the communist government. They were forced to work for the cooperatives and unable to have any rights.
