What creates an aristocracy?

By definition, aristocracy already has power. Therefore the question must be "How do aristocracies originate?"Generally and historically speaking, aristocracies are created through the use of force or the threat of using force against weaker members of a society. By these methods wealth is created by the aggressors by either demanding payments from the weakest members, or by warring with weaker peoples and stealing their land and precious metals like gold.Land ownership is key to making aristocracies. The land is cultivated, farm products sold, and wealth is created.With weaker people subdued, and the stronger people now wealthy, the goal becomes on how to keep the wealth or expand it.With the wealth acquired, a government is usually created by these wealthy aristocrats and with the power of government, the aristocracies pass laws that inhibit other people from joining the wealthy class unless it is to the benefit of them to include new members.The wealth is passed down from generation to generation and the "class" of aristocrats become a mainstay of a society.In summary, by power wealth is created and with power it is maintained and done so with the threat of power.

Personal rules used art to display their wealth and status and help legitimise of strengthen their image of power by creating artistic symbols for their power. It was often a matter of propaganda. Power and wealth was what patronised the arts. This was not limited to personal rulers. Members of the aristocracies and the wealthy middle classes did the same. This is one of the reasons why there was so much art of the Italian Renaissance. There were plenty of personal rulers, aristocrats and wealthy merchants and bankers in the Italian city-states who wanted to display their wealth and create symbolism for their power.

Andrew Carnegie believed that the accumulation of wealth by the rich was justified as it enabled them to use their resources for the greater good of society. He argued that wealthy individuals had a responsibility to distribute their surplus wealth in ways that benefited the community, a concept he termed the "Gospel of Wealth." Carnegie contended that the rich were best positioned to make philanthropic investments, as they could fund education, public libraries, and other initiatives that would uplift society. Ultimately, he saw wealth as a tool for progress and social improvement rather than mere personal gain.
