  • Yes

  • No

  • Not sure

  • He was a peasant

Answer

Yes, Kropotkin's family owned land. They were part of the Russian nobility, and their estate included serfs who worked the land. His father, a military man, was away from home for extended periods of time. However, Kropotkin's mother and brother remained on the estate, and it is likely that they took on most of the responsibilities associated with its management.
