Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Most of these peasants were serfs, which couldn't leave the place they were born in, according to law. Yet they weren't slaves, so don't be mistaken.

Answer:

TRUE!!

Step-by-step explanation:

In the Middle Ages, the majority of the population lived in the countryside, and some 85 percent of the population could be described as peasants. Peasants worked the land to yield food, fuel, wool and other resources. ... They were obliged both to grow their own food and to labour for the landowner.
