The Caste System traditionally consists of four main groups, known as "varnas": Brahmins (priests and scholars), Kshatriyas (warriors and rulers), Vaishyas (merchants and landowners), and Shudras (laborers and service providers). Additionally, there are numerous sub-castes or "jatis" within these categories, and outside this system, the Dalits (formerly referred to as "Untouchables") historically faced severe discrimination and social exclusion. This system is primarily associated with Hindu society but has influenced social structures in other cultures as well.
