In 1861, Tsar Alexander II of Russia implemented the Emancipation Reform, which abolished serfdom across the Russian Empire. This reform freed approximately 23 million serfs, granting them personal liberties and the ability to own property. However, while the reform aimed to modernize Russia and improve agricultural productivity, many former serfs faced economic hardships due to inadequate land allocations and continued obligations to pay redemption payments to the state.
