The Caste System emphasizes what jobs people had and who they married and became joint families with. IT WAS PRETTY MUCH THEIR STATUS!
Yes, caste system was byproduct of Hinduism. It was made so that society can sustain by itself & everyone does their jobs honestly.
Any jobs, there is no caste system preventing us from taking a particular job!
In the Aryan Caste System, there were five groups that you could be in. 1. Brahmins ( Priests) 2. Kshatriyas (Warriors and rulers) 3. Vaishyas (Peasants and traders) 4. Shudras (Laborers) and last, but not least, 5. The "Untouchables" The Untouchables were considered untouchables, because they did jobs that were ''polutants''. Anything to do with feces, blood, or killing anything put you directly into the Untouchables catagory. :) Have fun. (I dont find this category particulary interesting.)
They were forced to take menial jobs.

the indian caste system has 4 levels. The Brahmans (priests), the Kshatriya (warriors and landowners), the Vaishya (merchants and artists), and the Shudra (farmers). The untouchables are a group outside of the caste system, but are still considered part of it. They do all of the unwanted jobs.
In India the highest caste system and lowest caste systems are: Brahmans: priests and teachers {being the highest caste} Untouchables: the jobs no one else want to do {being the lowest}

The caste system provided a sense of order by dividing society into distinct social classes with predetermined roles and responsibilities. It established a clear hierarchy where individuals knew their place in society based on birth, and this helped maintain social stability by regulating interactions between different castes. The system also provided a sense of identity and connection within each caste group, fostering a sense of belonging and community.
The caste system in India influenced social hierarchy, economic opportunities, and access to education and resources based on a person's birth. It determined one's social status and interactions within society.
