The largest group in European feudal society was the peasantry, often referred to as serfs or villiens. These individuals worked the land and provided agricultural labor in exchange for protection and a place to live, typically under the authority of a local lord. While they made up the bulk of the population, their rights and freedoms were limited, as they were generally bound to the land they worked.
