The classification method that is presently used by scientists was developed by Carolus Linnaeus, in the 1700's. During his lifetime, Linnaeus collected around 40,000 specimens of plants, animals, and shells.
Carolus Linnaeus defined two main kingdoms in his classification studies of living things. For plants he chose Vegetabilia, and for animals he chose Animalia.
In Linnaeus' early classification system, the kingdoms recognized were Animalia (animals), Plantae (plants), Fungi, and later, Protista. However, the kingdom Monera, which includes bacteria, was not recognized at that time. Linnaeus primarily focused on the more complex organisms, and the simpler forms of life were not classified until much later.
The largest taxonomic category in Linnaeus's system is the kingdom. This category includes all living organisms and is further divided into smaller categories like phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species.
Linnaeus named the Animalia and Plantae Kingdoms. Linnaeus named two kingdoms by the names Animalia and Plantae kingdoms. He also ordered them from the largest to the smallest.
Carolus Linnaeus originally used the kingdoms Plantae and Animalia in his classification system. Later, he expanded it to include Mineralia, Regnum Lapideum, and Regnum Lithophytorum.
Linnaeus classification is based on physical and observable characteristics of organisms, categorizing them into hierarchical groups like kingdoms and species. Phylogenetic classification, on the other hand, is based on evolutionary relationships and genetic similarities among organisms, organizing them into groups that reflect their evolutionary history. Phylogenetic classification provides a more accurate depiction of the evolutionary relatedness between different species compared to Linnaeus classification.
Evolutionary classification groups organisms based on their shared evolutionary history and genetic relationships, while Linnaeus's system of classification is based on observable physical features and similarities. Evolutionary classification reflects the understanding that all organisms are related through common ancestry, while Linnaeus's system focuses on organizing organisms into hierarchical categories based on shared physical characteristics.
The three kingdoms proposed by Carl Linnaeus in his classification system were Animalia (animals), Plantae (plants), and Mineralia (minerals). This system categorized living organisms and non-living matter into distinct groups, with Animalia and Plantae representing the two main types of living organisms. However, Linnaeus's Mineralia is no longer included in modern biological classification, which now primarily focuses on the domains of life.

There were only two kingdoms in the original system defined by Carl Linnaeus in 1735 which were:Animalia (animal)Vegetabilia (vegetable or plant)It was originally based upon morphology and other physical characteristics. Modern scientists have altered the classification to a new system of six kingdoms based upon modern science's ability to better compare and define the genetic structures of living things. A new rDNA comparison analysis led to the development of the three domain and six kingdom classification.
