In the Athenian kingdom, hierarchies were taken very seriously, as titles defined a person's social position.
Below the royalty were the high nobility and the high clergy, then came the middle nobility, which consisted of dukes, etc.
After the nobility were the artisans, the liberal professionals, and the wealthy merchants, such as the Selvarum family and Garret Darksoul.
At the bottom of the social pyramid were the modest groups, made up of landowning peasants, small craftsmen, and merchants.
The poorest class consisted of serfs, workers in humble trades, and peasants.
There were also the marginalized and excluded, those who lived in slums, camps or under bridges, thieves and beggars. They had no income, so they weren't necessarily considered part of the pyramid.
