landed gentry

wealthy aristocrats (and/or nobles and/or merchants) living on manors and estates in the countryside and owning slaves (and maybe even state peasants or even serfs)
landed gentry, after mandatory military under Catherine The Great of Russia, retired to their estates to live like hedonist; this is part of the reason Russian society actually regressed to the point of revolution by 1917.
