Social classes in your nation?

[The Pope States]

Upper class 45%:the upper class is made up of inventors, authors, and chairsmen and our leader John Dovew 11th.

Middle class 76%:the middle class is made up of office workers, army servicemen, police, and lawyers and teachers and doctor and priest.

Lower CLass 19%:the lower class is made up of army servicemen, factory workers, teachers, priest.

[Dagnia]

Depends on what you mean by class. We have major social stratification, which we see as no problem, but people do not stay in their classes for very long if they work hard enough, or (if already in the upper classes) get lazy.

[Maraque]

Royalty: Members of the royal families (0.00005%)
Upper class: Influential and/or highly educated, wealthy political or business individuals and families (1%)
Upper middle class: Highly educated, moderately wealthy and/or influential professionals (10%)
Middle class: Moderately educated skilled laborers (50%)
Lower middle class: Minimally educated skilled laborers (25%)
Lower class: Uneducated unskilled laborers (13.9%)

[The Catepanate]

Abolishing social classes is impossible[...]

Why do you say so? In Lemon Land there are no classes, people enjoy their equality and freedom.

Only illusions...
The fact itself that your country exists implies that there is a governing class,above the people.

[Altackia]

"Upper class"
-The Count himself and other high party members
-high ranking military officials
-Oziac members
-industrialists

"Middle class"
The average Altackian citizen
-small business owners
-skilled workers
-lower ranking military officers
-lower ranking Oziac members
-police
- Manual Workers
-farmers

"Lower class"
You won't find any Altackian citizens here. Most of these are captured POWs who are then used for slave labor. They're treated humane as far as getting adequate food and shelter goes, but in the end a slave is a slave.

The party attempts to make a populist image but they're still social classes in Altackia.

[Proloteriat]

We only have lower classes or upper classes it depends on the economic climate. Generaly the people are OK but all live in relative eqality. Even the Leader has to have the same wage as anyone.

[Choseon-Goryeo]

We do not have classes in Choseon-Goryeo. We are all equal, as there is no "ego, I, me, or mine." The usage of such words is a great sin. We are one in all and all in one. There are no men, but only WE. One, indivisible and forever. While there is a House of Government, as everything here is divided into houses, the Career council chooses those to enter the House of Government to study until they are elected. They are no different then the rest, simple they have their own career. We are all equal here.

[Kirav]

The urban class system in most of the Federacy's large cities is thus:



"Democrats" and "Republicans" are simply the closest possible translations for the class names, which are holdovers from which classes could vote in historical Coscivian political systems. They have no current political significance, and absolutely nothing to do with right- or left-wing politics, which do nto exist in Coscivian society.

[Victorious Decepticons]

All except the very highest and some of the very lowest classes in Victorious Decepticons are rather fluid.

Leader - Megatron is in a class by himself. He is not only the leader, but the richest bot on Cybertron and the owner of the planet's two biggest companies.

Elite - The High Generals. They are not only filthy rich, they are the ones with the highest ability to influence Megatron's decisions.

Upper Class - While it's possible for anyone to get rich with a good raid, only very well-established successful raiders, scammers, and extremely successful businesspeople are considered a true part of the Upper Class. People don't outright say they got here by scamming - but if they're not willing to say how they did get here, that's how. These are Victorious Decepticons' One Percent.

Upper, Upper Middle Class - People who got rich from a very good raid or scam but do not have the social attributes of the true Upper Class fit here. Also, very (but not extremely) successful businesspeople are found here.

Upper Middle Class - Here, we finally start seeing some "honest workers." Highly acclaimed scientists, coders, engineers and the like will find this to be their upper limit - if they want to go higher, they'll have to become businesspeople and monetize their discoveries on their own. Raiders who are usually successful also are found in this strata. Scammers, however, will not be satisfied here and will push it until they either hit the Upper Upper Middle or get themselves deactivated by a mob of angry marks.

Middle Class
Average raiders
Debugging Center coders
Typical scientists and engineers
Small shop owners, mechanics, etc.

Lower Middle Class - The average raider's mindset and educational level fit squarely in this slot. His finances will match if he has too many failed raids.
Some employed types are also lower middle.

Lower Class - Most employees are socially lower class, though employment pays enough to make one financially middle or even upper middle. Employment is the course of last resort for Decepticons due to its social stigma (taking a job means you failed at raiding and scamming). This is a very fluid class, and most will leave it for raiding - and the middle class - in fairly short order.

Lower, Lower Class - Socially, violent scroungers go here, along with those who are almost destitute and persist in staying that way. They are discriminated against by their betters.

Those willing to modify their bodies just to do employment are just slightly above this level. For this reason, most cargo bots and domestic transport people will work under a pseudonym. That way, when they get their normal bodies back, they can keep the money but lose the stigma.

Human Slaves - Human slaves are of very low standing. They are the descendants of a conquered species, and therefore lower than dirt. Even slavery, though, is not 100% immutable. The very most loyal of slaves can sometimes become citizens, and citizens can attain all but the Elite and Leadership classes.

Decepticon Slaves - Yes, they exist. They are considered even lower than human slaves, because the only way for a Decepticon to be enslaved is if he stupidly installs an enslavement trojan or virus into his mind. (Enslavement software is always disguised as something else, but the ways to avoid being infected by it are so well known that only an extremely reckless person will be caught by it.) A Decepticon who thinks so little of himself that he basically throws away his own ability for self-determination is seen as almost blasphemous. Decepticon slaves are often worked until they seize up from lack of maintenance, and many think it serves them right.

Decepticons Who Willingly Do Slave Work - These are the very lowest tier, even below Decepticon Slaves. The pay is great thanks to the amount of physical labor a Decepticon can do, and the lack of willing employees and hacked Decepticons, but the stigma is tremendous. Anyone willing to do what people usually have to be forced to do is considered to be a self-hating nut and a stain on our pride-loving society.

That said, we are Deceptive and Conniving, and industrious workers have found ways to use deception to evade the stigma. Workers often use the cargo bots' method of switching their minds to unrecognizable bodies and then working under an alias. Still, most Decepticons will not touch this form of work, even if not doing so means living in the streets.

The Chronically Destitute - The few who fall into this class are considered completely hopeless by all others. Here, it's completely legal to lie, cheat and steal your way to wealth. There are also job opportunities, both legitimate and illicit, for most education levels. Considering this, we figure that while bad luck may happen, there is no excuse for staying so poor as to actually be destitute. It is considered acceptable by a large minority of the population to just round these "people" up and throw them in the slag, though only a few are hardened enough to be the ones to do the rounding.

[Radictistan]

Broadly speaking, the Radictistani people can be divided into four social classes. Sociologists and demographers differ in what they call these classes, but the most common system denotes these as the Upper/Governing Class, the Middle Class, the Working Class, and the Underclass. There is little movement between classes in Radictistan, one's station being largely fixed by birth.

The Upper/Governing Class is comprised of major party politicians, business executives, higher ranking civil servants, and the landed aristocracy. This last category overlaps with the others to large degree. Naturally, it is this class which controls all political decisions along with most of the wealth. A plurality of military officers come from this class.

The Middle Class includes "the professions:" doctors, lawyers, most government employees, white collar workers, etc. Small landholders, whether by freehold or leasehold, are also included in this class. Some sociologists will place factory foremen and certain unionized industrial workers in the Middle Class but this is not a majority position.

The Working Class consists of industrial workers and wage-earning agricultural laborers.

Members of the Underclass are defined both by their extreme poverty and their living "off the grid." Few have any form of legal identification and most lack any form of legal existence in the form of a birth certificate. Virtually all live in the blutstats, periurban slums into which the authorities dare not enter. Few have any form of gainful employment so most make their living by crime or various forms of informal economic activity.

[Mermaidia]

Royalty - Descendants of King Triton

Aquatic life - Mermaids/Mermen/Sirens/Seaponies/Dolphins

Middle Class-Laborers, union workers, small business owners, military, etc.(84%)

Lower Middle Class-Small scale laborers who are payed only minimum wage(9%)

Lower class-High school dropouts, commonly unemployed, sometimes homeless(2%)

[Flavionia]

Everyone is equal, However the Prime Minister, Senators, and Political Leaders have more power, but once their terms are over, they are simple people, again.

[Walrusfolk Eurarcta]

Walrusfolk just make up a word to describe their "class".

The Lord of Chaos claims to be the "King Class"

Homeless folks often claim to be a part of "The Glorious and Honorable Vagrant Class"

Overall, there are much too many to list.

[Naturesocialistic Aryaland]

Inner party and secret police H4
They must lead the whole nation. They know everything about everything. H4 can be above the law, if needed in the name of national security.

Environmentalists and Reichspolizei
They protect the nation and hold order in country. Their main concern is the security of nature and environment. They must regulate the balance between citizens and nature.

Workers
They are the glory of the country, their work produces goods and weath for everyone. They can protest whenever they want and be part of monthly referendums.

[New Neoria]

We are a classless society.

[Threlizdun]

Threlizdun posesses a classless society. There is neither economic nor social classes.

[Magical Equestria]

From top to bottom

The Goddeses: Our rulers, the divine Princesses Celestia and her younger sister, Luna.

Ponies, including Unicorns, Pegasi, and Earth Ponies. While technically the Unicorns and Pegasi are aristocratic classes, it's very informal, and the three races tend to treat each other as equals.

Sea Ponies. They consider themselves equal to regular ponies, and in their aquatic habitat, no one really disputes this.

Breezies (notional, as they exist mainly in stories--no pony has seen one in living memory).

Non-Pony "free" hoofed animals, including Zebras, Buffalo, and others. While technically having the same rights as Ponies, they're generally considered second-class citizens.

Talking "free" non-hoofed animals, including (civilized) Dragons, Gryphons, and others. Second-class citizens by law, most are kept as indentured servants.

Talking "slave" hoofed animals, including Cows, Sheep, and Pigs. Earth ponies keep these races in bondage on their farms, exacting their milk, wool and waste (as fertilizer) for their room and board.

Non-talking "critters". Animals in Equestria tend to be more "sapient" than in other nations, even those races that do not talk. The best and brightest of these are kept as pets, the remainder are looked after and protected from the many dangers "wild" critters would face.

Monsters: In the untamed parts of Equestria are numerous large, dangerous, and utterly uncivilized animals, including uncivilized dragons, manticores, hydras, cockatrices, and a hose of other nasties. Equestria is, in fact, an extremely dangerous place for the unwary, and much effort is made to keep the "civilized" parts of the nation safe from the occasional marauding monster.

[Nirvash Type TheEND]

Thanks to a very left wing government social classes are more or less blurred together.

This is the best social class system ever.

Ours is essentially similar tough everyone is theoretically equal.

Though we would suggest the terms 'wild' and 'domesticated' rather than 'free' and 'slave.'

Well, it's a matter of semantics. Of course ponies would not refer to their livestock as "slaves", but for all practical purposes they are.

[Princess Luna]

OOC; In fairness, I don't think they're under any compulsion to stay. I can't imagine Applejack beating one of those cows for trying to leave. So they're not quite slaves by my reckoning.

OOC: Actually, I'm of the opinion that, being cows, they don't have enough imagination to picture any other life besides that of livestock. It wouldn't even occur to one of them to run away.
