Carl Linnaeus, Father of Classification
The book in which Linnaeus published his classification system was called "Systema Naturae".
The largest taxonomic category in Linnaeus's system of classification is the kingdom.
The first classification system was developed by Aristotle in ancient Greece around 350 BCE. His work laid the foundation for future classification systems, including the modern scientific classification system developed by Carl Linnaeus in the 18th century.

The classification levels of domain and kingdom were added since Linnaeus's time. These levels help to further categorize and define the diversity of life on Earth beyond Linnaeus's original system of classification.

Aristotle's classification system was based on morphology and behavior, grouping organisms by similarities in structure and function. Linnaeus's classification system, on the other hand, focused on organizing organisms based on their physical characteristics and reproductive organs. While Aristotle's system was more subjective and based on observations, Linnaeus's system was more systematic and laid the foundation for modern taxonomy.
