In Spanish colonial society, the peon was a laborer often bound to landowners, primarily indigenous or of mixed descent, working under harsh conditions. The peninsulars were Spaniards born in Spain, holding the highest social and political power, while creoles were individuals of Spanish descent born in the colonies, often resenting the dominance of peninsulars. Mulattos, of mixed European and African ancestry, and mestizos, of mixed European and indigenous ancestry, occupied a lower social status and faced discrimination but could sometimes gain economic mobility. This complex hierarchy influenced social dynamics, economic opportunities, and political power within colonial society.
