Unfree peasants, often referred to as serfs, were bound to the land they worked on and could not leave without the landowner's permission, typically owing labor and various dues in exchange for protection and the right to work a plot of land. In contrast, free peasants had more autonomy, could move freely, and often owned or rented land without such obligations. This distinction significantly impacted their social status, economic opportunities, and overall quality of life in medieval society.

How are serfs and peasants alike?
SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES: Serfs were unfree peasants, and peasants are free and unfree. They are alike because they were both grouped together. They both lived on a lord's land. They both paid taxes. Serfs were owned by a lord, and a "free" peasant rented a lord's land, paying in crops. EXTRA (just a little more info): A free peasant usually owned very little. The wealthier peasants owned a few pots and a bedstand. They rented part of a lord's land and usually shared it w/ other families. The homes were cottages w/ one or two rooms in them. Serfs were "owned" by a lord and paid heavy taxes, even though the lord owned them. They tended fields and gave the crops they harvested to the lord. They had a small patch of field for their own crops. BIBLIOGRAPHY (I can't take all of the credit, you know) please see the link below, and History Alive the Medieval World and Beyond

Most agricultural laborers in the Ottoman Empire were typically coerced laborers rather than free laborers. Many worked under systems such as the timar system, where land was granted to cavalrymen in exchange for military service, leading to peasants being tied to the land. Additionally, various forms of serfdom and debt bondage further restricted the freedom of these laborers, making their labor largely unfree and exploitative.
