Best Answer

At the top you had the Gentlemen and Gentry, who were rich and owned huge plots of land in the countryside. Then there were Citizens, who lived in the city, but had nice houses and owned servants. Yeomen were next, they had to work, but still lived in reasonable comfort. Last were the Labourers, who were very poor, and had to work to earn a living.
