There are four major divisions (castes) in Hinduism. Today, they are less adhered to, although traditionally, it meant a lot.
1. Brahmins
The Brahmins are the holy caste of the Hindu society. They represent purity and include priests.
2. Kshathriyas
The kshathrias (shath-ri-aahs) are the warrior caste. They represent valour/courage or brevity and include the kings and warriors.
3. Vaishyas
The Vaishyas are the business caste. They represent prosperity and include merchants and traders. Trade, agriculture and the rearing of cattle is the work of a Vaishya.
4. Shudhras
The Shudhras (shoe-dhraas) are the labourers, representing hardwork. They are often seen as the lower caste of society although they do a lot of work such as cleaning. Shudhras include servants.
I know the Caste System in at least Ancient India. The Caste system is in highest to lowest as written:
Brahmans - highest class; priests and scholars, (because daily life was based on religion and rituals)
Kshatriyas - ruling class; warriors, princes and nobles
Vaisyas - merchants and farmers
Sudras - commoners and laborers
There was a fifth class, considered to be the lowest of the low (this still holds true today)
The Untouchables. They did work no one else wanted to do. Ex. cleaned up after cremating the dead, executed criminals, tanned animal hides, did jobs seen as unclean.
It is sad that the Untouchable class and the prejudiced caste system still exists in modern India today.
The original four major caste in India were Braham,Vaisya,Kshatriya,and Sudra.k The original four major caste in India were Braham,Vaisya,Kshatriya,and Sudra.

Rama was the seventh incarnation of Vishnu, according to Hindu myth.
Hinduism has four casts mainly Brahmins, Khsatriya, Vaishya & Shudra. Brahmins were the first to walk on the earth. They were superior in knowledge, power, skills and Privileges. Thus sometimes Hinduism is also called brahminist empire.
