the ranks are: 1st : Emperor 2nd: shogun 3rd: Samurai4th: normal soldiers 5th: citizens 6th: peasants Basically, they were the high-ranking foot soldiers and the enforcers of the Shogun.

They maintained conditions on the battle field, giving more specific orders than the basic orders given by the shogun.

One key difference between feudal Europe and feudal Japan lies in their social hierarchies and roles within the class structure.
