- The serfs were slaves
Answer: Option B and D
Step-by-step explanation:
Under feudalism in Europe, serfs had the status of peasants. They were living in the condition of servitude or debt bondage until the 19th century when this concept finally ended.
The Russian serfs were more like the slaves as they could be sold, bought or traded in the market with a difference that they could be traded along with the land only. They had few rights as to decide what they want to grow on their land or they could not be disposed of their land without reasonable cause.
