A system or organization in which people or groups are ranked one above the other according to status or authority. The original meaning of hierarchy was rule by priests, which usually involved a rigid ordered structure - such as priests, bishops, archbishops. Now it is normally used for anything with an ordered structure, not just a group of people.
